TWO-FACE'S TRADING POST
(by Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton)
I know that there are many people out there that
collect Batman OR Superman items - like
myself. I only started a year
ago and, believe me, finding some of these items (like action figures) that were
released a couple years ago is pretty tough! So, I decided to start up
a
little section in the newsletter to help out our fellow Bat-fans. I
can only personally guarantee that my entries are 100% true, for I saw these
items with my own eyes. So we're working on the honour system here. Sound
fair?
ALSO if you are LOOKING for something, e-mail me
and I can put your request in the "WANT TO BUY" section. There is the
possibility that a fellow subscriber is willing to sell what you're looking
for!
Well, here we go! I hope this helps out someone
out there!
1. JOKERZ LEADER. Mail editor Tim "TWO-FACE"
Leighton if you are interested in the Jokerz Leader figure from the new "Batman
Beyond" line, in a near-mint package. Pic available. E-mail:
juno@direct.ca
2. KILLER CROC. Editor Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton
has a spare Killer Croc figure lying around, in a mint package. Pic
available. E-mail
juno@direct.ca if
interested.
3. THE MAD HATTER. Yup! Editor Tim "TWO-FACE"
Leighton has one spare BTAS "Mad Hatter" figure (in a mint-condition package) in
his possession that he is willing to get rid of. This is the only Mad Hatter
figure in existance (to our collective knowledge), and is a wonderful figure
besides! Sure, that was a shameless plug, but it IS a cool figure. Pic
available. If interested, e-mail:
juno@direct.ca
4. SUPERGIRL. Yep! If you want one of
these, e-mail editor Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton, and he should be able to find one
for you, in a mint or near-mint package! e-mail:
juno@direct.ca
5. TNBA EASTER EGG. From England. An
approx. 5"X8" box with great artwork all the way around. Contains a large
red-foil wrapped chocolate Easter egg (good until 7-99) and some gum-drop-like
candies. Cost is $25.00 per egg which includes shipping and insurance within the
US. Email for scanned pic, or if interested:
keatking@icehouse.net
6. HUGE Batman collection for sale includes
animated, movie, and comics related Bat-items - so huge, we can't list all the
items here! There are movie scripts, action figures, archive books, and more.
Collection is being sold as a lot for $430.00 and cannot be broken up. For full
list, e-Mail Dani at
Peterpan@ma.ultranet.com
----------
WANTS TO BUY
1. CLAYFACE. Anyone know where to get a "Legends
of the Dark Knight" Clayface figure? I know it's not animated, but it still
counts for this column... Some have submitted phone numbers for Hasbro, but they
only work for those in the USA, and not Canadians such as myself...can anyone
help? E-mail:
juno@direct.ca
2. COMBAT BELT BATMAN, and BTAS BATMOBILE.
If you know where to find these figures - or a BTAS Batwing (I'm pretty sure one
was made) e-mail this address:
cnwitkow@concentric.net
3. BATMAN/NIGHTWING TWO-PACK. Personally,
I don't know if such a thing even exists, but I could very easily be proven
wrong. If anyone can find this two-pack, e-mail one of your fellow subscribers
at this address:
jokerz84@hotmail.com___________________________
FEATURED
BAT-SITES FOR THIS ISSUE
WELCOME TO...
I thought I'd tell you about two great sites.
One new, and the other new - well to me, anyways. These two sites deserve a lot
of attention simply becuase of the work and effort put into them. So without
furthur ado, here are breif synopses of both sites:
This site takes a look at the entire DCU as if
it were a part of the "animated" universe. We get to see all of our favourite
characters in the beautiful animated form. We finally get to see what a
potential JLA animated series would look like. We get to see more of the
animated Metropolis. There are just tonnes and tonnes of animated version of
DCU's favorite super-teams and heroes. Plus, there is also a MARVEL section in
which we see some MARVEL characters in animated form. This entire site is
extrememly well done. There's also a schedule page, an upcoming comics page, a
fanart page, and more. I recommend this site to any ANIMATED or DCU
fan!
This site has links to everything! Message
Boards? Got links to three of 'em! (BATMAN, SUPERMAN, & BATMAN BEYOND). Want
a place to chat? Well check out the link to THE BATMAN/SUPERMAN CHAT ROOM. Wanna
check out a BATMAN/BATMAN BEYOND episode guide full of screen shots? We got yer
link right here to BATMAN: THE ANIMATED HOMEPAGE! Or just wanna catch up
on
old BTAN newsletter issues, and news? Well we have a link to BATMAN: THE
ANIMATED NEWSLETTER ARCHIVES as well. This site contains almost all a fan would
want! Message board, chat room, news, episodes guide, and more! This site
amazing design was done by ROBIN III who did an
outstanding job! I recommend
this site to any animated fan!
UNOFFICIAL BATMAN ANIMATED FAN-CLUB
The club
will consist of a fanzine - 'a fan made magazine' with news, reviews, artwork
and basically all that we can stuff in related to Batman, Batman Beyond and
Bruce Timm's amazing artwork. The club is non-profit making (ie - you only pay
for paper and ink costs) based in
the UK but people from around the world are
welcome, too. If you would like more information please send your name, address,
phone number and e-mail to
brian@batmanuk.freeserve.co.uk___________________________
ANIMATED
BATMAN/SUPERMAN SITES:
* - indicates a shameless plug for a site a
certain double-faced editor created with his bare hands - in other words, a
cheap advertising technique.
If you have any questions, problems, links do
not work, or anything else then please e-mail this address with your problems
and we'll try to fix them as soon as possible. Also if you'd like to send any
fan-mail then please send it to this address:
As for submissions, feel free to submit an
article or opinion on anything pertaining to BTAS. Keep in mind that as the
editors, we have the right to edit your submissions if we deem it necessary.
Such instances would include problems with length, grammar, and language.
If we do feel we must edit something, however, we will do our utmost to ensure
that the opinion and the basic message of the submission does not change, as
that is the most important part of any artcile, and everyone is entitled to it.
And if you do submit something, please don't just submit a basic review of an
episode or a comic or something (because we have people writing for those
purposes already) - write about an issue you'd like to
discuss.
