I am currently doing "spring cleaning" early.
Someone gave me one of these (1/24th scale?) Batmobile telephones many years ago.
And it has sat in a storage box ever since.
Push button phone on the underside.
Curly phone cord out the back end.
All there...including the roof top decal...but needs a real good cleaning.
Its actually a good proportioned likeness...doesn't look that bad sitting next to my MPC model.
If it wasn't for the phone cord...I considered cutting off the cord. lol
But then I wondered if it had any value...cash or collector.
I'm in Cambridge Ontario...if anyone wants it, you can come and get it, for free.
I'll ship it to you, but you would have to pay the P&P (up front).
Let me know, otherwise I think its going to the dump.
My email is cutandfold[dot]info[at]rogers[dot]com

Did you put it on ebay? I would think that would bring a nice piece of change. I bet someone here will snap it up. DO NOT throw it away.

I honestly haven't looked on eBay or anywhere.
Maybe I should? lol
I am a Batman fan just like you...
I have too much stuff, and too little room. (Probably like you? lol)
I really didn't think to make any money from it, just pass it along to another fan who would be more interested in it than I am.
If nobody here takes it...I'll consider putting it on eBay, just for laughs, to see what happens.
Obviously, if you are local enough to pick it up, its yours for free.
But if I have to ship it somewhere, you will have to cover the P&P costs for me.
I think its only fair?
I've got a small shipping box that is roomy enough for the Phone/Car, and I can fill it full of styrofoam peanuts.
I'm concerned only about the fins...making sure they don't get broken. Thats why I think it needs to go in a box.
The Post Office is only a short drive for me...so its not much trouble to get it shipped.
I checked the online shipping rates through CanadaPost...
seems the package will ship just about anywhere in continental USA and Canada for around $20.
Thats just for basic Air Mail, no special delivery or insurance or signature, etc.
So I think $25USD in my paypal account will cover my trouble and the postage.
Paypal takes $2 of that in fees!
If you are interested, let me know...and I'll direct you to my paypal.
I'll leave it sit here for a month, and see if anyone takes it.

LOL You got me curious!!....
I took a very quick look on eBay.
There are a few of these Batmobile Phones listed.
Many are new with the original box.
Prices range from about $45 ...plus shipping of course.
wow, the shipping rates are crazy on some items!
There are a few used ones, priced from $20-$30 plus shipping.
So, theres not much money to be made here...I'd rather give it away.
Or...$25 shipped...doesn't seem out of line.
