I'd originally passed on these but I think I might need that robin for my dick Grayson collection
This line to me looks so good and faithful to the 66 show that I'm just waiting when I get more shelves installed on my garage to see the amount of space available for something different of what I already have planned to display there... If I have the spa e available for it, I will just go and hunt down the whole collection on ebay including playsets.???
These new figures are intriguing since they are based on the comics' versions of the characters. I thought Superman would look more like George Reeves, but he looks a little like Ben Affleck from his role as George Reeves in the movie biography. Lord Death Man is interesting since he's hardly a common villain in the current comics, but he was in the comics when the TV show was popular, yet not on the TV show. Same can be said for Poison Ivy, since legend has it that Ann Margret was going to play Poison Ivy on the TV show, but the episodes were never produced. I'm not a fan of the jingle bell Joker. It's rather silly to me. I do like the Batbot the best. I find it to be a great distraction, as it is both well sculpted and produced. It's a unique figure and kitschy to say the least.
All of that said, I'm hopeful that McFarlane will go back to the original IP of the line and make some more of the TV show's villains, like Mad Hatter, Bookworm, Siren, FalseFace, Clock King, Shame, Black Widow, Archer, & Minstrel. Of course, they can make the John Astin Riddler and Eli Wallach Mr. Freeze by switching out heads for a quick buck. We'll see what happens to the line after these are released. I don't think Target is carrying this wave.
defo want sups and the batbot
Dont really collect this line but recently preordered a batman & robin after seeing the oxygen mask variants at target and kind of liking them.
Also pre ordered lord deathman, love his design.
These look great,I feel they're better sculpted then the 7" lines. if they'd just incorporate ball shoulders and hips I'd be all over them.
10 hours ago, Reno said:I'll definitely be getting Batbot & Lord Deathman! The others are probably passes for me.
I ordered those two plus Batman and Robin. I have Joker, Catwoman, Riddler, Penguin, and Two Face already and I can't see me needing any more after this. Gonna keep this collection small and manageable unlike so many others!
I'll definitely be getting Batbot & Lord Deathman! The others are probably passes for me.
Shown below via an Overseas Seller is an in-hand look at an unannounced DC McFarlane Toys Batman 66 Wave from McFarlane Toys featuring Batbot, Batman, Robin, Superman, Lord Death man and Joker Batman and will available at 12PM EST for pre-order from our sponsors BigBadToyStore.com and Entertainment Earth.
Oh yeah Lord Death Man looks magnifique, I really want that, I don't collect this line, and no plans but I do just want that guy as a stand alone fun figure, it's right up my alley with my obession with skull/skeleton dudes, he's like the DC Scareglow, that's a must get for me.
