| 1638 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @vkimo I never knew you were such a Batman devotee. Did you attach this velcro bat-symbol or did you buy it that way? I am intrigued. @Vaporman87 glad you can back me up on this. Speaking of Batmania, there was a VHS that came out around this time called "Holy Batmania!" covering the phenomenon. My copy no longer plays, but I remember this segment of Adam West as Batman at some rinky-dink fan event giving it his all to entertain. It was sad and inspiring at the same time. Interesting that you had Mantis, he came at the end of the line when Kenner started throwing in lesser known characters, just because they had cool designs or making up new ones altogether. @thecrow174 Yeah, the return of Indiana Jones and Ghostbusters in '89 were just some the highlights, I wonder if we will get a year like that in the 21st century. | Dec 15, 2014 |  | |
| 1639 | Article | Mr Magic | Hoju, we haven't had too many movie years like 1989 in the 21st century, have we? I remember the handheld game, btw. | Batman '89 Remembered | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1640 | Article | NLogan | Jack Nicholson was the stand out performance of the movie for me. I had the Super Powers blue Batman, the Penguin, and the Joker (I still have the Joker). I had the Ertl Batmobile and the micro versions of the Batmobile, Batwing, and Joker Van. I had the movie version black suit Batman and the Joker with his different head sculpt and paint job. I ate the Batman cereal with bank, had the cards, spent hours beating the NES game. | Batman '89 Remembered | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1641 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @NLogan Yeah, those variations in the Batman and Joker head sculpts are so interesting: square jaw, round jaw, Joker with double hair curl. Glad you got to enjoy so many parts of this moment in time. @thecrow174 Maybe we just need a little perspective. A decade from now we might be saying 2015 was the year of all-time classic films and blockbuster hits. Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 is coming out next year after all ;) | Batman '89 Remembered | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1642 | Article | NLogan | My brother and I walked four miles to a Shopko to see the new Batman figures and Batcave. To me as a 12 year old kid it seemed like an epic journey. Not sure why we didn't ride our bikes. | Batman '89 Remembered | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1643 | Article | Vaporman87 | We will be getting Avengers 2 and Star Wars... so it is bound to be a pretty decent year for sure. | Batman '89 Remembered | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1644 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Being born in '82 I missed the initial E.T. phenomenon, but I did somehow end up with a stuffed animal that had a leather like texture to simulate his alien skin. Such a weird choice for a "cuddly" toy. Right there with you on recording to tape! I personally commandeered every cassette recording device in my house to record old-timey radio dramas, morning drive comedy shows and NPR style interview segments. For Christmas a few years ago my sister got me a brand new tape recorder and some blank tapes to pay tribute to my old hobby. To echo Vaporman87, I can only hope my kids care enough to listen to my childhood ramblings. I will look forward to their reviews. | My Christmas 1982 | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1645 | Article | Vaporman87 | Perhaps we should exchange audio files of our "ramblings" for laughs. :D We may be the only people (aside from our families) to appreciate such things... ever. LOL | My Christmas 1982 | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1647 | Article | OldSchool80s | Thank you for reading, enjoying and commenting! My parents still have and listen to a Christmas mix tape I made for them way back then which includes my intros and commentary in between songs. A little embarrassing, but also great memories! I think your kids will definitely enjoy discovering your tapes. | My Christmas 1982 | Dec 15, 2014 | |
| 1648 | Article | vkimo | @Hoju my gym bag has a velcro square on it for "morale" patches. I got a glow in the dark one off eBay that looks pretty sweet. I'd post a pic but not sure how to in the comments. | Batman '89 Remembered | Dec 15, 2014 | |
