I was fascinated to see these two lovely Batman-decaled plastic cars by Panda of Finland when I was surfing.
You can read and see more about them on this French website.

As a matter of fact, these models were originally something called "candy bag cars" comissioned by a candy manufacturer Chymos. There was a large sortiment of models, in a multitude of colour variations.
ReplyDeleteWhen the Batman craze took over Finland in '66, someone came up with the idea of adding Batman stickers on six different models (bearing no resemblance whatsoever to Batmobile) and packaging them in minute, chequered window boxes with BATMAN printed on. These were then sold in local toy shops.
Only few examples are known to have survived.
I knew you'd know and they did ring a bell with me when I saw them. Lovely things and thanks for the potted history Arto.
