It could also just be possible that back when Yvonne was alive, it was easier to deal with her for likeness rights (see the Mattel SDCC 2015 '66 Batgirl) than it is with whoever is in control of her estate and likeness now.

Surprised about the problems with Batgirl. Yvonne Craig was one of the most gracious celebrities I have ever met.

Burgess Meredith's Penguin is missing his cigarette holder & umbrella, while I hope we eventually see a Julie Newmar Catwoman, who made the role iconic. I did read that due to problems with Yvonne Craig's estate, there won't be a Batgirl action figure. I know that some other collectable companies have run into similar problems with her estate resulting in Batgirl being left out of other Batman '66 collectable lines.

Love Batman'66. These look great. Interesting no cigarette / cigarette holder for Penguin. Virtually every other Penguin'66 piece has it. Batgirl is a must. Hopefully soon, and with her Batcycle.

I like the figs just not in their shorts lol or with boxing gloves on either lol. Cool idea even still...

I love the baan riddler boxing episode. Still waiting on Julie... My Catwoman of choice. Penguin looks good. Maybe a little slim even.

I don't like this line, I always thought however I would want the Catwoman figure if they made one, this isn't it for me, the face looks way too manly, I hate the lower body articulation on these...I get it they are trying to be retro but also trying to be contemporary at the same time, I wish they'd just go full one way or the other.

No Umbrella!?! WTF
