Merchandise: 1990 Kenner Action Toy Guide

The 1990 edition of Kenner's "Action Toy Guide" catalogs came in two varieties. The version pictured above (from late 1990) features the initial items released in the Batman Dark Knight Collection. The version pictured below (released in early 1990) has a similar cover, but does not include anything from the line.



The Batman Dark Knight Collection items are featured in the first 4 pages of the guide. The first 2-page spread covers the initial figures and vehicles, while the second spread focuses on the role play items.

Merchandise: 1991 Kenner Action Toy Guide

One of my favorite things about old Kenner toys were the little "Action Toy Guide" catalogs that were often packed inside. Each catalog gave a look at the various toys that Kenner would be offering across their toy brands in a given year. Presented here are the "Dark Knight Collection" pages from the 1991 Action Toy Guide. Many of the items shown in this catalog will be reviewed in the coming months here at the site, while others (like the Joker Mobile, Gotham City Dragster, and Batcave Command Center) were never released as part of the line.
