WB Announces 60's Batman TV License

[pjam]

Clearly Howard was always a fan of Adam West.

Hi Howard. Money in the bank, buddy.

 

[esoteric77]

Clearly a HT 1/6 west is needed here!

Chandell. Too priceless not to repost.

Worst? You're all forgetting Chandell - Liberace as twins!

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Actually I loved the trap in this episode - a player piano music hole punch machine. They had to sing the notes that would make the punches go outside of their bodies.

Errr it hasn't been announced y'know

Yeah I realize that.. I'm just happy about the news.. that was my point.

It wouldn't surprise me if they or Sideshow get it. I expect they'll move on to the Schumacher films after Batman Returns and The Dark Knight Rises and Arkham City and then eventually to the Adam West show. Batman sells for HT and they know it. If there is a license out there they can snatch up, they will. It took them a long time to get the Burton films and Arkham Games so I expect it to be a few years at least before they tackle these.

Count me in for a 12" Batman & Robin.

 

[pjam]

Ah yes, the Mad Hatter. Sneaky mean devil. Not one of the worst.

 

[Shropt]

It's time to dance people!!!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Oh, I liked the Mad Hatter. One of the better ones.

Seems Fox had a lot of bad suits left over from the technocolor musical days -- Lilac, Mad Hatter, etc...

 

[Mister D]

I cant imagine a HT 1/6 scale Adam West looking anything other than complete ____e

It would look like what he looked like. For those of us with Batstolgia, it would be great. And there would be no shortage of possible accessories.

But which Catwoman would fans want most?

 

[Mister D]

I actually found this Freeze to be scary when I was a little kid.

They had a similar white-faced freeze guy on an episode of Lost in Space which freaked me out and I think I associated this guy to that.

Favorite moment in the series (which I hope will now be able to be put on DVD/BR) is a Freeze episode. As I recall, he and his henchmen attack the commisioner's office, and he freezes a cop solid. As Freeze bumps into the cop as he walks past, and the cop shakes a little. After the cop moves out of the frame of the camera, you hear a crash and a shattering sound. None of the actors ever react to this, so I don't know if it was planned or added in post, but it was a wonderfully twisted gag to insert into the series.

Are you kidding? Newmar. We all "came of age" with Newmar.

 

[devilof76]

Well, I was a toddler, but I see your point.

[pjam]

That hat definitely looks a bit... recycled, doesn't it?

[pjam]

More than a reasonable assumption!

Well, I was a toddler, but I see your point.

 

[lerath666]

The Prospect of An adam West Batman figure has me Extremely excited.

I mean, A batman that actually LOOKS like Batman for a change? woot.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Well, I was a toddler, but I see your point.

So was I... but *******! It works on a genetic level.

I think we all win here:

Never was a fan of Eartha Kitt's version save her voice. I'd still buy it though.

but a Yvonne Craig Batgirl trumps them ALL!!

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

but a Yvonne Craig Batgirl trumps them ALL!!

She's cute - & would make a great HT figure, but ehh..

Julie Newmar was an exceptional looking woman - none of those others come close.

 

[pjam]

Ehh.. she's cute, but that's just silly talk.
