Bop the Champ

Bop the Champ

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen one of these Mego Muhammad Ali bop bags surface in collectors circles before. Is it just me or does Ali look cool standing next to Batman? Maybe DC teamed him up with the wrong guy.

    Why would I want to punch Batman?

    Look at the terrible artwork on the Batman bop bag.. Proportions are way off and he has no belt buckle. Let's punch the artist instead. 🙂

    Is that Batman stock art from around 1955? What, they never heard of Carmine Infantino?

    I like that the Muhammed Ali bop bag is signed "Muhammed Ali. Peace".

    My Mom used some of her blue chip stamps in the early 70's to buy me a Bozo the Clown punching bag. I split his nose pretty early on, as I had a wicked mean left hook when I was 5 years old.
