When I was a kid and my mom was in the kitchen baking something tasty, I used to get so impatient.I asked for an update every 5 minutes. Eventually, my mom would say do you want it NOW?

I’m going to take a wild guess that Mars has broken off into yet another company, Pushy Point Toys. They just solicited a 1/12 Riddler that looks identical to their Conundrum Man released under the “Six Feet Lane” name.

Even the wrinkles in his mask are the same - it’s the same sculpt, done the same way with clear plastic covering his hair.

This is Six Feet Lane/Mars’ Conundrum Man:

There’s no update, sorry for the bump.

Does anyone know if folks like Breda still have an “in” with Mars Toys and would be able to ask what the hell is going on? Are they still dealing with their factory issues from a while ago?
 
They’re too busy dodging all the cease and desist warnings from the IP holders to actually get anything produced.
 
Going to be two years next month since this was shown (see first post).

Are they still waiting for Gorshin release?

That’s the only thing I can think of. They waited for Carrey Riddler to drop before soliciting Two-Face, it could be the same thing here… Gorshin is estimated to release soon (who knows) and Mars briefly posted a fully edited preorder photo of Burgess Meredith Penguin on their Instagram, titling him “Captain Villain”.

They’ve also shown mass produced Gus and ‘22 Penguin heads, so those might be soon too. I dunno. I really hope we get at least Tommy Lee Jones Two-Face and ‘66 Penguin before Mars splits town - I’d rather not pay $500 for “Ultimate” JazzInc versions.
