"No detail has been overlooked in this ultimate high-end Batman collector’s chess set, which features pieces made of pewter and die-cast metal that stand on a stunning heavyweight light-up board. As your game of chess unfurls, Batman, Robin, Batgirl and Commissioner Gordon battle the Joker, Catwoman, Riddler and Penguin on an oversized 20 x 20 inch playing surface. When you press the Batman symbol on the side of the chess set, 50 LED lights circle the playing surface, lighting up the board. This heavyweight chess set is a stunning tribute to Batman, and will be treasured for generations."

Of course it’s extremely expensive, at $794.94, but it sure is beautiful. As I can’t play chess myself I can’t see myself spending that kind of money for a piece of Batman merchandise I can’t even use, though I did spend over $80 on a Batman electric guitar and I can’t play that either! Then again I also just don’t have that kind of money! If you can play chess, and can afford to spend that kind of money on a chess set, here’s the link to purchase it.
