To me there is only one Tarzan, Johnny Weissmuller and one Batman, Adam West.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
Nice momentos, I grew up with Adam West and Burt Ward as my Batman and Robin, but I really liked Affleck's portrayal. The montage of him training up to take on superman was awesome.
plasticjunkie I have an autographed picture of him that says "To my pal Ernie, best wishes Adam West". Saw him at the Miami Beach Convention Center many many years ago. Now I have to look for the picture packed away somewhere in the garage. RIP Batman.

This was always my batman.. I never cared for the later iterations, especially the super melodramaticman.
The ONLY Batman for me. RIP Mr. West.

Many years ago I built an r/c model of the Batboat form the 1966 movie. I used a 1/32 scale fiberglass hull for an Elco 80' PT Boat as a base. A few years after completing the model, George BArris, designer of the Batmobile & Batboat, appeared at a local Auto Show. I took my Batboat model and had Mr. Barris autograph it. I had hoped to get Adam West and Burt Ward to autograph the model as well.
Nor did Mr West, Chuck (according to an article I read years back in which he was interviewed after having attended one of the the 'new' Batman movies).
Hmm;
Although somewhat " Campy " the original Adam West " Batman " is the one I will always remember . Rest In Peace - Bruce Wayne - Adam West ! T.B.

I really enjoyed Mr. West's tongue-in-cheek portrayal of Batman. That is how I would expect him to be, from the comics of my childhood. I did not care for the "dark" environments of the later Batman movies.
Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...
Sad news.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
I had the old Aurora Batman model that was modeled after Adam West. Still have an original TV series 1/32 scale Batmobile by a Japanese company (Otaki?).
Holy After Market, Batman!
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Variety magazine is reporting that Adam West has passed away at age 88.
