  • Can I help you?

  • Yeah, I've got the Batman Wayne Foundation house.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • CHUMLEE: Hey, Corey, check this out,

  • Batman Foundation dollhouse.

  • That's what this is, right?

  • A dollhouse?

  • Yeah, absolutely.

  • I think, you know, part of the appeal of Batman

  • was he was just a normal guy.

  • He wasn't born with superhero powers

  • or bitten by a radioactive spider--

  • "A normal guy."

  • A billionaire.

  • That's a normal guy?

  • Who had a sexy voice.

  • (BATMAN VOICE) Robin, come in, please.

  • [AWKWARD LAUGHTER] Any idea what you're looking

  • to get out of it?

  • Um, I'm thinking 700 bucks.

  • [TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

  • I don't know.

  • 700 bucks for a Batman dollhouse?

  • Yeah, but it comes with the box.

  • CHUMLEE: I don't know, Big Hoss, I think you need

  • to call in Steve for this one.

  • I believe he's at a toy convention.

  • Well, I'm sorry, my man, we're going to have to pass.

  • - We're not going to pass. - We're going to have to pass.

  • Steve's not--

  • No, we're not going to pass.

  • I'll give you 500 for it.

  • I bet you it's not worth that.

  • Guaranteed you're going to lose on that.

  • Can you do 6?

  • I can do 5.

  • Take it and run, buddy.

  • Take it and run.

  • You got a deal.

  • All right, deal.

  • I'll tell you what, we're going to bring Steve in when he

  • gets back, and if it's more than $500,

  • you're going to wear a costume that I choose.

  • And if it's worth less, you see Robin right there?

  • You're going to be wearing green underwears and a red dress

  • just like that.

  • Sure, buddy.

  • OK, write him up.

  • Let's go.

  • He's my boss, but you got over on him today.

  • This piece of crud can't be worth more

  • than freaking 200 bucks.

  • [LAUGHTER]

  • I mean, it's got the worst thing going for it--

  • it's Batman.

  • Well, I guess you're not that much of a Batman fan, but--

  • Corey bought a Batman dollhouse for $500

  • without checking in with our expert first,

  • and I think he way overpaid.

  • So we made a bet, and if Steve values this at under $500,

  • Corey's going to have to do whatever I say.

  • STEVE JOHNSTON: This is pretty cool, man.

  • I don't know if I'd say cool.

  • Well, you know, it's funny.

  • You know, I know you don't like Batman, but in the '70s

  • Batman ruled.

  • Batman was so popular that you had

  • companies like Mego trying to kind

  • of produce whatever they could.

  • Mego, when they had started producing these playsets,

  • they started with like the "Planet of the Apes."

  • They produced like the big playset with the tree house.

  • So then in '74, the Batcave came out.

  • And unique from the fact that you

  • didn't have anything that was like this big

  • of a playset for boys.

  • You had the Barbie Dreamhouse, you had those type playsets,

  • but for boys, you hadn't really gotten

  • to something that was this big.

  • I think that's why Corey liked it so much,

  • because he loves dollhouses.

  • STEVE JOHNSTON: [LAUGHTER]

  • CHUMLEE: So what do you think it's worth?

  • You know, so I noticed that you're

  • missing the rope which would actually

  • pull up the elevator here.

  • And then there was a little Batshield

  • that attached to the end of it that would hang off this piece.

  • And then when you'd pull it up to a floor,

  • you would hook it over the front to be

  • able to place the elevator on different levels.

  • That's got to affect the price drastically, right?

  • Um, it is one of the harder pieces to find.

  • CHUMLEE: Yeah.

  • It is commonly missing.

  • Yeah.

  • However, because it is so commonly missing,

  • most collectors would be more than satisfied with this,

  • because you have all of the clips-- because they're always

  • missing or broken.

  • You have all of the furniture pieces.

  • OK.

  • It's a very nice box.

  • And you've got the instruction sheet for it

  • as well, which is really cool.

  • So obviously, you've got almost everything

  • that you would need here for someone that

  • would want a Wayne Foundation.

  • If you're a Mego collector, it's not going

  • to take long for you to sell.

  • OK, so I've got a bet riding on this.

  • I paid 500 bucks for it, what do you think?

  • Well, you know, a lot of times Chum

  • is right when it comes to this type stuff.

  • He knows quite a bit about it.

  • When you know, you know.

  • However, I think in this point, I think Chum's wrong.

  • And the reason being is because I

  • think you guys would have no problem

  • getting $1,100 for this.

  • Sweet.

  • CHUMLEE: So, sorry, but you lost your bet, bud.

  • Oh, it's going to be fun.

  • You're in for it.

  • You know what?

  • I've got some stuff to do.

  • [LAUGHTER]

  • RICK: OK, so what have you been up to while I was gone?

  • Chum lost a bet.

  • As a matter of fact, I think you got

  • a costume you need to try on.

  • [SIGHING]

  • [CLASSIC BATMAN TRANSITION SOUND]

  • [LAUGHTER]

  • (BATMAN VOICE) Welcome to the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop.

  • COREY: He's never looked better.

  • I like the belt. I like the pawn shop advertising.

  • You're not going to make him do this all day, are you?

  • COREY: For at least a while.

  • He's really embracing the character.

  • (BATMAN VOICE) Welcome to the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop.

  • It's funny, I will give you that.

  • But you're going to freak the customers out, all right?

  • Why?

  • Because it's weird.

  • COREY: Come on, it's great, look at him.

  • (BATMAN VOICE) Welcome to the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop.

  • Chum, you're done.

  • (BATMAN VOICE) That's it today, Big Hoss.

  • [LAUGHTER]
