8 Ridiculous Pieces Of Comic Book Merchandise (You Secretly Want To Buy)

4. Batman Water Gun

There's quite a few things wrong with this official 60's Batman water gun. Let's do this delicately; his prone position really doesn't put across the usual amount of gravitas you're used to seeing from the Dark Knight, having the water-jet come out of his mouth does give the impression he is spitting on you, the refill cap has been placed with almost perfect precision right in the centre of his buttocks, and then there's the trigger... You get the feeling whoever designed this left the trigger section until the very end, only then realising their terrible mistake, knowing it was too late to change its positioning. And to think this was a toy for children. The toy was actually created by an unknown Japanese manufacturer in the '60's to cash in on the popularity of that era's Adam West series. Although it really looks like it was designed by Adam West's Family Guy incarnation.
