So, on the shelf I have 101 Batman plus an additional 3 of plush I keep in the collection AND my late find from yesterday, he's at the end of the post and now on the shelf, giving me a grand total of 105 Different Batmans (or is that Batmen). I will note I could have slammed Reis in the plush area of the competition as I have access to countless variations of plush Batman items.

These last 6 are my "Extras" for whatever reason or another you are going to end up with extras. They could be from a two or three pack or just because they had a new accessory, I thought I would put some numbers on them just to show them, they felt left out. They will be taking their place on the shelf after the competition.

Last, here is an outtake image showing how the Batshelf dominates my open collection, got to keep those Stormtroopers and Mr. Spocks in line.
Also since I am writing this before the big reveal, and have no idea how many Batman items Reis has, I just want to add this was a fun little contest and brought back a lot of memories of why I collect certain things. It made me realize I have a crap load of batman toys and what not. It made me miss some I had given away or sold off, but still I have the memories. Oh, and it made me hope I thoroughly trounced Reis and his Batman Collection : )
Let's take a look at Hey! Look at my Toys! collection shall we?

Congratulations, CB! That shelf takes my breath away! It makes me want to get out all my loose figures and start filling in some "gaps."
Great contest, guys!! It's been fun to watch all the build-up and trash talking.
... and, hey, both collections are incredibly impressive.
Nice victory.
One question.
How long did it take to get a picture with all of them standing up?
Mine are always falling over.
Great fun.
Aaaawwww CRAP! I can't believe what an ass-whoopin' I just got! A hundred and friggin five?! Jeeze!
Oh man... I'm aching from this sound trouncing.
And now I have to make it 106 as I send you your vintage Mego Pocket Heroes Batman. Ugh... insult to injury!
Wow... I didn't even stand a chance. That is one seriously impressive collection.
Well played Chunky B. It was a rousing good battle and you're clearly one hell of an opponent and I'll never doubt your love for the Dark Knight, nor your collecting prowess ever again.
I tip my hat to you. Well done, sir. :)
Now, I'll slink back to my blog and post a graceful announcement that I have been bested by the best.
And for the record, even though I lost, I have had an immeasurable amount of fun with this challenge!
Enjoy your spoils Chunky B! Email me and I'll get your address again. :)
@ Brian A - Thank you, this was a blast.
@ Brian B - Thanks and an excellent question, it took me a couple days to set up, then I had to go back and adjust things, every time knocking something over and playing dominos. I then re-hung the hanging bats. So over three nights of set up. Maybe an hour shoot, another 45 processing the images and identifying. That was the fun part.
I think you deserved an award by Batman for being such a big fan. LOL
Fantastic collection, and a great idea for the friendly competition. Thanks for sharing all the great pics!
Damn was that FUN!! I love your collection- several in there I'd love to have :)
Well done- and with a great sense of humor!
Congrats Chunky! Wow! That's a lot of Batmen. Great collection. I hope this doesn't mean the end of Bathound. :(
Awesome collection I like how you and Reis focus on the Black, and Blue and Gray Bat suits. Back in the day, I had many of Neon, rainbow, and sparkle camo ones. I noticed I missed a few looking at the two collections, so I am probably closer to 50 then I thought. And there are a few in their I am going to have to hunt down to add. Thanks for rekindling a past addiction that I though I cured. (yes this was copied and pasted, and edited).
Thanks everyone, oh and Dan I have probably gotten rid of a ton of those "neon camo jet ski" Batmans in my day. I think I have purged quite a few out of my collection including some "regular" ones. It helps if you don't look back, LOL.
With that said I think I am off to gets me a celebratory Batman!
Bat Hound will continue to poke around the collection from time to time too.
Congrats on the win CB! I daresay you might even have more Batmen than me! But I won't bet on it. ;)
What a amazing collection! Congrats on the big win on this one CB. And can i ask you how you like those Minimate figures? I see them in the store and i know nothing about them. Worth picking up?
Jesus Chunky, how does your shelf take all that weight? I'm surprised it's not sagging in the middle. LOL. Congrats on the win! I'm sure Reis's mego Batman will make an excellent 106
Holy Collection!
Number 87 batman which is hanging and carries a bat-winged glider is actually from this line -> Knight Assault Batman (Mission Masters 3), produced by Kenner/Hasbro in the year 2000.
