Mattel '66 Batman TV series figures

[Jay1138]

I would really like to see some generic goons and thugs get made into figures like Goon 1 and Goon 2. They can be used for any of the villains too. They gotta have henchmen!

I'm sure it will be, but Catwoman better be based on Julie Newmar.

Where would the best place to get these with an online store ?

I have a feeling that the Batmobile will be hard to get at Toys are us here in OZ! The only way to get them here would be in comic shops who will mark up the price big time.

So looking forward to this line only waited 35 years...lol

What they resemble is your mom's attempt to replace your lost plastic cape from some leftover fabric she had in her sewing drawer.

We've all been waiting to add these 60's tv figures to our collections and a overzealous batfan such as yourself can spin it any way they want, but those fabric capes look like ****.

Only the 3 3/4 inch Megos had plastic capes. The 8 and 12 inch had fabric. It was nylon fabric, but still fabric.

She will be- the Barbie 66 Catwoman is the Julie version, so........

Untill Hot Toys.........

Yes if Neca's is great(which it is) wait till the realism of HT kicks in...should be jaw dropping....

I'm hoping for a Batgirl with cycle set as well as a Batcopter and Batboat.

I'm not a fan of the way the cloth cape looks on him. The Batman sculpt is awesome, though. The Robin is a very soft likeness to Burt Ward, IMO. Kind of similar to how Mattel was disappointing with Joker v1 and Catwoman being very soft likenesses to Ledger and Hathaway. The Riddler and Penguin look excellent, however.

I'm incredibly excited to see what they do with it. I'll tell you, between the Sideshow stuff, Returns, Arkham City, and this, it's an incredibly good time to be a Batman fan.

Joker's been revealed:

 

[EVILFACE]

That is The Joker.

Cesar Romero Joker > *

I'll probably collect this whole line since they aren't terribly expensive and I've always wanted Adam West Batman figures, but to be honest I haven't been overly impressed with any of the figures so far.

They look okay but could be a lot better in my opinion. I prefer DC Collectibles for less expensive toys to be honest. They may not be as articulated but I think they do a way better job at details and paint apps and stuff for their figures. The Mattel stuff always just looks like a child's toy in ways to me. Still the surfs up Batman will be mine no matter what.

They also had the Batusi Batman for SDCC on display:

Does anyone know if Mattel's SDCC Exclusive will likely be available to non-attendees?

 

[Batty]

Joker's been revealed:

That's some crotchal area he's got going on.

I'm pretty sure they usually have the exclusives on sale on their site after SDCC.

Getting stands too, nice. Like the ones from the TDKR 3 pack.

 

[Chuck72586]

Is Mattel making that Bat-phone prop or is that just there for display?

 

[batfan08]

I'm pretty sure that's just a prop.

These looks pretty good. Might cop if I have some leftover funds
