This item lot is sold strictly "AS IS, WHERE IS" with no warranties, representations, or guarantees of any kind, expressed or implied, regarding its absolute manufacturing year, internal spring/axle longevity, fabric material integrity, or future secondary market valuation.
Vintage Mego Notice: As authentic pre-owned toys from the 1970s, these items will show natural signs consistent with historical domestic play, shelf display, and decades of storage. Bidders should anticipate standard, age-appropriate characteristics. This includes, but is not limited to:
Figures: Potential minor fraying on cloth capes or suits, light oxidation on fabric pigments, and standard wear on plastic joints or boots. Over time, internal rubber-band tensioning (the "O-ring" mechanism) can naturally relax; figures are sold in their current state of articulation.
Batmobile: Surface scuffs, minor paint wear on the body, decal edge lifting or fading, and standard shelf wear on the wheel assemblies and undercarriage.
All components are sold as shown; original retail packaging and additional utility accessories are not included unless explicitly visible in the lot photographs. Overall condition grading is entirely subjective; bidders must rely completely on their own evaluation of the provided digital photographs prior to placing a bid.
Color and Dimensions: Fabric pigments, vinyl head sculpts, and molded plastic vehicle components possess distinct light-reflecting and light-absorbing properties that interact with professional studio photography strobe lights and ambient environments dynamically. Actual color saturation, decal contrast, and plastic finish may vary slightly in person compared to what is displayed on your mobile phone, tablet, or monitor screen due to distinct digital device calibrations. The seller is not liable for subjective differences in color perception. If specific dimensions are not explicitly listed in the text, please refer to the auction photographs containing measurement indicators, measuring tapes, or rulers.
Bidders are strictly required to inspect all photographs carefully prior to placing a bid. The images constitute the primary, definitive, and final description of the set’s physical state, including costume integrity, decal condition, and paint clarity. By placing a bid, the buyer explicitly agrees that they have reviewed the photos, accept the lot's current pre-owned vintage state, and agree that all sales are final. No returns, refunds, partial credits, or exchanges will be issued under any circumstances.
