Bat Vehicles: For Fast Footed Crime Chasers
Bat Vehicles For Fast Footed Crime Chasers
Bat Vehicles For Fast Footed Crime Chasers.
Now, I want to preface this all by saying I had a great childhood, just like my tattoo says, “No Regerts”. However, every time I gleam past this page in the Sears catalogue, I sense a disturbance in the force.
The sight of the Pedal Powered Batmobile on this “Bat Vehicles” page fills me with thoughts of “what might have been.” I was Batman-obsessed when i was five, and well, I lived on a hill.
This amazing Batmobile, complete with Bat radio, would have gotten a lot of use in my household and, likely, would have been destroyed from overuse.
Bat Vehicles- Empire Toys Batcycle
The Empire Toys Batman Cycle or as everyone else calls it “The Bat Cycle,” is an excellent runner-up.
Oddly, I have no desire to own any of the Bat Vehicles as an adult, mainly because I’m too tall to ride.

Bat Vehicles
Never liked those back-and-forth pedals. It was so hard to get a decent speed.
Mind you, I can understand from a design perspective, there was not a lot of room down there, but for me it was chains or nothing.
