Holy Squirt Gun!

This old Batman squirt gun was offered up on eBay recently:


This thing is just so wrong, you have to wonder how any licensor could have ever approved it. I could maybe see someone somehow not having a problem with the fact that this is Batman projectile spitting on you. I could maybe see someone not taking exception to the very unfortunate placement of the trigger. I could maybe see someone not having an issue with Batman being bent over with his butt sticking out at you.

But to overlook all three of these issues?

    The real question is: how much did it go for?

    And in our line of work, an actor rejects a card image if a couple hairs are out of place.

    Of course this is from a time that people were oblivious to the weekly homo-erotica that was the Batman TV show.

    "Robin, would you reach around to the front of my utility belt and squeeze my Bat-Trigger?"

    *POW*

    "Um, Batman, was that *supposed* to happen?"
