This prototype of the Mego Foundation Play set shows a completely different item than the one that hit the market in 1977. The floors all seem to be made of solid plastic (well, it's styrofoam for the presentation but you get the idea), the side wall art never made it to production and the roof features and additional floor plus plants, we got gyped out of plants people. Let's get a more detailed look at some of the more interesting features.

The Batcomputer graphics appear to have been clipped out of a magazine and of course it wasn't white or hand painted like this.
