WANT!
I absolutely love coffee table books, and this will be the next one that I purchase! As someone who is completely obsessed with the George Barris 1966 Batmobile, Batmobile: The Complete History is a must have! From the Amazon description;
Here for the first time is the complete history of the sleek, sophisticated, incomparable Batmobile. From its humble beginnings in the pages of Detective Comics, to its reimaginings every decade in the pages of DC Comics, to its unforgettable appearances on the big screen, this book explores each incarnation of the Batmobile in incredible detail and scope.
In addition to comic books, the Batmobile has been immortalized in nearly every imaginable medium, including film, television, toys, and video games. Most recently, it was given breathtaking new life—and incredible capabilities—in Christopher Nolan’s extraordinary film trilogy, which concludes with 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises. While each of the Batmobile’s incarnations will be explored, special attention will be paid to the "Tumbler" Batmobile from Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises.
With stunning gatefolds and detailed specs, blueprints, and historical comparisons, BATMOBILE: The Complete History is an informational and visual delight for auto and Batman fans alike. It’s an unparalleled and high-speed journey that will leave you breathless.

Recent Aquisitions...
I found this cute lil' bugger for $25! It's about 14" long, runs on 2 DD batteries, rides and spins on the floor in every direction, only stopping every so often for the driver to scan the landscape with his video camera. Rear rocket fire lights up and makes a rat-a-tat-tat sound, driver rotates while camera screen lights up.
Godzilla is a 1978 Monogram re-release of the classic Aurora kit from the 1960's. I'm not much into putting model kits together, so I bought this one fully assembled and professionally painted for the low, low price of $8! I found both of these items at the here in Maine.

These Are AWESOME!

New York-based artist Sebastian Errazuriz (previously on Neatorama) never fails to amuse me. His "Shoe Pants" - sort of like an adult footie pajama - is like the ultimate hip street wear! Link
