Diamond Select Toys Batman Classic 1966 TV Series: Shakespeare Bust Vinyl Bank Multi-colored, 20 inches

The Shakespeare Bank next to my "I Dream of Jeannie" Bottle makes for 2 very fun easter eggs especially when friends stop by! So now it's either "To the Bat Poles" or Jeannie "Blinks!" Great transaction with Danz COMIX and Collectibles. I was immediately notified when my product shipped and once delivered it was packed with care and a few little extra surprises inside besides my Shakespeare Bank. Thank you for a wonderful transaction!

While it doesn't look like real bronze because it's vinyl, it does have a little bit of black depth coloring, though not as well as the picture. However, I LOVE it as it is full size and has good detail. If you're a big fan of the 60's Batman show, this is a fun piece for the man cave, or shelf display. My friends that are familiar with the 60's Batman laugh at it yet love it too. I hope to eventually make a red Bat phone to put under glass to set next to it.

This coin bank is excellent for collecting coins and comes with non functional controls. It actual feels more realistic with the weight of many coins in it. Perfect for any Batman TV Series fan!To make it perfect, the folks at Gentleman Door Automation modified the bust for me with an actual switch, light, and transmitter to activate their automatic door operators!Update 2/17/22 The switch and light design has changed at Gentleman Door, complete working busts are sold out but they now offer a parts kit to allow owners to modify their existing busts with a working switch & light.

This is obviously as amazing as you’d hope it would be. 20” tall and completely delightful for my husband, a massive Batman fan. It fits in perfectly with all of the other man cave memorabilia. I have two complaints. the first is just something to be aware of if you’re getting this as a gift: it ships in a box that describes EXACTLY what is inside, so I had to give this gift 2 weeks before Christmas. The button inside also doesn’t move at all, which isn’t a big deal but it’s also a $70 toy, so it feels a little less worth it. We’re going to experiment with putting a real button on it and wiring to power a light!

While I was born in the 2000s, I can still say my favorite Batman is Adam West. Watching reruns of the show was always a blast. I put this on my desk and it looks great!

Needed a Father's Day gift. We've been re-watching Batman and I was looking around Amazon. This seemed amazing but too expensive. Told Dad a few days before Father's Day, "I saw a lifesize replica of the Shakespeare bust on Amazon, but it was expensive so I didn't buy it for you."The light went out of his eyes. "That's okay," he said in a very small voice.I am a sucker. Father's Day rolls around, he's got a giant box sitting in front of him, opens it up, best present ever. The bust now sits in his office, behind his desk. My wallet is lighter, but so is my heart.

Mine was defective, doesn't look like Shakespeare at all!The actual bust is pretty great. Nice sculpting, heavy gauge vinyl. I'm going to add a steel plate to the base to keep it from rocking around when you open the head, and I'll probably drill out the fake switch and add a real one... But overall, exactly what I was hoping for.

Nice item if you are a fan of the tv show. Great quality. Looks like bronze. Opens like the tv version. It has the authentic looking switches on the inside.
