Hot Wheels Batman 5-Pack 2023

I found this Hot Wheels Batman 5-Pack at the local Walmart's last week but didn't pick it up until this Tuesday. There's a Batmobile, one police car, two villain vehicles and a Batcopter. My camera decided to act up so I didn't get a picture of the box's back, but I did manage get one of the front:

The first three diecast cars include Arkham Asylum Batmobile, Gotham City Boom Box and Harley Quinn Hi-Roller:

The last two vehicles include the Joker Power Pistons (the engine cover and top are transparent green and look really cool) and the all blue Batcopter:

Hot Wheels Batman 5-Pack 2015

The reason that I haven't posted the Hot Wheels Batman 5-pack from 2015 is because I had a hard time taking any good pictures of it. I finally decided to try scanning the front and back. I have never opened this but I've been tempted so I could take pictures of the individual vehicles. The Hot Wheels vehicles include Batcopter, Batmobile, Ford Fusion (Gotham City Police), Midnight Otto (Penguin) and So Fine (Joker).

The Batcopters

Sorry about the lack of posts but I have not been getting much in the way of comics, action figures, toys or other related items lately. However, I did find an unexpected item that I just had to have since the price was right. I found a Hot Wheels HW Imagination #64 Batcopter for ninety-seven cents at the local Walmart's this morning.

Here is a picture of what it looks like when someone has a decent camera:

Here is a picture that I took with my inferior camera:

Yeah, big difference in quality. Anyway, I notice something odd about the Batcopter artwork and the actual toy: the canopy and wings are different colors. The artwork shows them as purple while the toy has them blue.

I dragged my only other Batcopter out of storage. I actually had a Corgi Junior 1978 Batcopter like the one below when I was a kid of thirteen.

Here is what it looked like when it was new and still in the package:

Unfortunately, I broke my Corgi Junior 1978 Batcopter out of the package and actually played with it so the half of the back blade is missing.

Here are my two Batcopters together:

I will have to say that the Corgi Junior 1978 Batcopter is still my favorite because of the Batman logo on it plus the black and red coloring.

Super Corgi Juniors Cars

These are my super Corgi Junior diecast cars from the 1970s. The front row has the Joker (called Healer Wheeler on the bottom and is missing the little blue plastic knob on top) and the Penguin. The back row has the Supervan, Batcopter (with only half of the back propeller) and the Batmobile. I actually found these in a local store when I was a kid and I played with them a lot.



Not pictured is the 007 Lotus Esprit submarine/car from The Spy Who Loved Me but I might make a separate post featuring that one at a latter date.
