The Inferno BAT is a figure that's found a solid life in the collecting world. It's a character that's been ported into various new Joe lines and also been recreated by factory custom makers. He's become the rare "bright" figure who is acceptable to the general collector base.
The combination of striking colors and translucent plastic makes for a fun figure that's easy to photograph. So, you'll find some good content using the figure. And, this one runs back quite a bit in time to see some more obscure photos.

It blows my mind that this figure is now 22 years old. I still think of it as some new figure that came out fairly recently.
ReplyDeleteThe Inferno BAT has never been my thing...too gimmicky for my tastes. That said it's clear that there are a lot of people out there doing some really cool/interesting shots with the figure. Cool stuff to look at...thanks for compiling.
I know 22 years old!! Spy Troops and Valor Vs. Venom were just yesterday for me.
DeleteI love him. Also can't believe how old he is though
ReplyDeleteThis figure ROCKS. :) I have them guarding the fuel stations inside my Terrordrome. The colors work really well.
ReplyDeleteOne of Hasbros best offerings! I love the clear inferno BATs and their rib cage.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cool figure, as the translucent plastic really worked on this one. Still, it leads me to think that Hasbro sometimes had their priorities backwards, in an age where most of the collector base was on some goofy "EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE REALISTIC" kick, marketing translucent figures to them just seemed odd, especially when it would've been a better retail figure, considering that Joe was actually doing numbers with kids for a change.
