Yup the bat. Nice.  After one over herr in the uk but can't find any locally,  just us import.

Could do with two if you were feeling helpful ;) drop me a pm. Cheers

I'd like to have a couple more myself.  This is the only one I found at the local Walmart but I'm going to check a few other locations.  I'd bet you could find them on Amazon.  On another note I found a matchbox version of the same model that is about 5-10% smaller which I actually like better and it cost half as much.  If I had seen those first I would have picked them up especially since they had more than one.  If I can find a line on a few of them I'll try and get a couple extra.

That's worked really well... what's the name of the toy?

It is simply called The Bat.

Hey Ironworker. Your looking for more dont forget about eBay. Having no luck at the local retail places i went to there. Found a whole ton of sellers and not half bad pricing and shipping to boot.

Yeah it's an old trick that comes over from modeling.  By breaking up the surface tension it makes the wash flow and cover better and reduces water spots.  It's even used a lot of miniature building for the movie industry.  There are other cool things you can do with it like make glazes that can tint clear plastic parts.
