Re: Batcave Diorama

That's about it for today, I'll do the trophies soon.
Thanks for your interest.
By the way...
It's funny you asked about this because last week I did an inventory of what went into the Batcave and the actual cost of everything.
Over the past 23 years I have been accumulating parts for this and I estimate it cost around $917.00 CDN to build.

Sorry for the wait, been busy and did not notice this yesterday when I posted.
Thanks for the compliment, it took many years to accumulate the amount of stuff needed to accomplish this diorama, I still have some tweeking to do so we'll see what comes out when I do my first annual cleaning.

Where does the mini microscope on the table come from?

I searched through toy sets on the list for hours and couldn't find it.
