Though obviously not action figures these promotional Movie cups and mugs from the first four Batman movies are still very cool tie-in collectables and here I will explore some of the best on offer...
BATMAN (Taco Bell)
The first Batman movie created a merchandising blitz like nothing seen before with the famed Batman emblem turning up on everything from mugs to hats to pin badges to bath mats and more
but some of my favourite collectables from that original 1989 blockbuster are these Taco Bell refill cups. With four styles to collect each cup had a unique Batman graphic image in varying poses and a brief bio on the back covering the man Himself, Gotham City, the Batmobile and the Batwing!
BATMAN RETURNS (McDONALDS)
Batman Returns was hotly anticipated on it release in 1992 after the phenomenally successful first movie with merchandise being even more varied than before. This time McDonalds had dabs on the fast food merchandising front producing collectors cups along with their Adult meals (kiddies got a choice of four different Batman vehicle toys) there were six cups in total to collect all of which I have managed to collect! each depicts a different scene or character from the movie with stunning graphic artwork :
BATMAN FOREVER (McDONALDS)
Departing from the more adult tones of the first two films Batman Forever opted for a more family friendly approach. It was McDonalds once again who had the fast food market cornered for Batman Forever's release and continuing on from their current trend instead of plastic cups this time we got Batman glass mugs, four in total, depicting Batman, Robin, Two-face and The Riddler etched onto these impressive and beautiful mugs:

BATMAN & ROBIN (QUICK)
By the time Batman was due to make his fourth big screen adventure (sixth if you count the Batman 1966 movie released in Europe and 1993's Mask of the phantasm Animated series spin off) Batman movie merchandise had established some tried and true methods of promotion including the obligatory Fast food drinking Cup giveaway, actually there were several restaurant chains offering promotions for 1997's Batman & Robin (the USA had Taco Bell back on board) In Europe relatively small fast food chain Quick had on offer three different drinking cups free with kids meals. Each cup had a character lid with various functions (Batman being a money bank) here are two of the three cups that were available:

This mug is a blackboard-type finish that allows one to write messages on the mug. Imagine greeting one's partner with a mug that says good morning or I love you. This personalized mug comes with its own porcelain art pen. steampunk mugs
