Now this is sort of retro revival I can get behind . First , Figures Toy Company announce that they would play backMego ’s old school cardboard playsetsfor their Batman and DC 8 ” figure transmission line — and now they ’ve pass away a step further and revealed they ’ll be bring back new versions of Mego ’s DC fomite , too .

Part of Mego ’s onetime 8 column inch World ’s Greatest Superheroes rail line , the Mobile Bat - Lab — which was fundamentally a Volkswagen camper van with pricker saying”Pow ! ” and “ Zap ” plastered all over it , which , WHY IS BATMAN NOT RIDING AROUND IN THIS THING TO THIS VERY DAY , DAMMIT — was one of a few vehicles develop for the figure line of work ( the Joker even fetch a matching counterpart covered in stickers saying “ ha ! ” ) . Others included the Batmobile from the 1966 Batman TV show , and of course , the infamousAmazing Spider - Car .
But Figures Toy Company have announce that they ’ll be bringing the plaything back as part of their update take on Mego ’s World ’s Greatest Superheroes figures — and not just that , but they ’ll be create a whole line of similarly wonderful / goofy vehicle for the Teen Titans , the Gotham City Police Department , and Superman as well . I can guess of no other hero that needs a Van more than Superman .
Each van will also include an exclusive variant figure to go with it , and although no Mary Leontyne Price has been revealed yet , considering a figure on its own will plant you back $ 25 , the Bat - Lab will belike be agitate at least $ 50 if not more when the fomite is released later on this year .
