Super Bat


The Super Bat on his flying skateboard was advertised to "protect you from all evil, villains, and bad guys!" This dude is from 1966, making him one of the oldest toys seen here on BPA. He's kind of a gummy material that is also just sticky enough to get covered in dust and hair (these are sometimes referred to as a jigglers). I think he also came with a cape. The back of the packaging (which I don't have) gives a few tricks:

A. Boss or Wheelie - his normal position
B. Fly-Away - a manual
C. Hot-Dogger - just looking up while skating
D. Head Dip - looking down while skating
E. Kamikaze - a nose manual
F. Butt Breaker - looking up again but I guess a little more than the hot-dogger. It warns that nobody but Kabunga can do this but offers no further explanation about who this Kabunga is.
