About a week or two ago, I went to a flea market. I personally like to buy things such as comic books, coins, and books/novels, board games and things like that at flea markets. But this time I was looking outside and found a stall that had old toys and other cool things. I was searching around and found something I've always wanted: a bootleg Batman toy!!!!! It was one of those "Super Powers" bootleg that had a giant Batman figure and the Superman, Batman and Robin had they're logos coloured out, leaving a blank space. Well, I asked the man how much he wanted for it: his idea was $10!!! For a bootleg (it was still in it's package but it ain't foolin me)! So I leave his table stall thing and he pipes up "Do you really want the Batman?" I nodded. "Well, how about we bargain" I said yes. He starts of with $9, I shake my head, then $8, then $7. Now he asks me what I thought it was worth. I said "$5". He agreed and I got my first bootleg!
This bootleg is fairly commen to see.
Here is bootleg Batman still in his package. This paticular bootleg was made in China. (A lot are!)
This Batman figure looks like to me that it's based in a movie figurine, but I am probably wrong.
Batman's logo is just a sticker, that hasn't even been centered! His belt is also a sticker. Bootleg Batman is made of cheap hollow plastic and his cape is just as bad. His paint just is horrible in some places, mostly his boots and his orange-y skin. The bubble is fragile and breaks easily. This figure is also fragile and will most likely brake if I take it out of the package again.
Here are some pictures of Bootleg Batman out of the package.
Here's Batman's cape. It kinda sucks!
Thank you very much! Next post: Goosebumps knock-off!
