Batman 66 Guesses for Wave 4

[houseofdracula]

FTC doesn't communicate or answer questions on Facebook as much as they used to but I'm going to go out on a limb and try to guess what will be released in Wave 4 using recent posts that they've made as clues.

1. Surf's Up Joker:
A few days ago, they posted this photo.

I know that some are tired of variant figures but IF they produce "Surf's Up" figures, I'll get them.
Actually, let me be clear,... I'll buy them IF they come with the Surfboards.
Without the boards, they're just the same figures with swim trunks.

2. Surf's Up Batman:
It would only make sense that IF they do the Surfing Joker, they'll have to add the Surfing Batman as well.

3. Mister Freeze:
Yesterday, they posted a Mr. Freeze clip and said that he was responsible for the recent Blizzard.
Sure, they may have just said this to be funny but I took it as a clue.
Maybe I'm reading too much into it but there have been photos of the Mr. freeze head sculpt floating around for a while.

4. I Have No Clue!
We know that (along with Freeze) Catwoman, Bookworm and King Tut have been featured on the backs of the cards.
I'm going to guess, Bookworm.
I don't know why, it's just a gut feeling.
King Tut's costume is going to be very elaborate and I'm betting that Catwoman will be released in a Wave with Batgirl.

Again, these are just MY GUESSES and I have absolutely no inside information.
Anyone else have any guesses?

I think those surf ones are likely since all they have to do is put shorts on existing figures, easy pass for me. But I don't think what they post on facebook has anything to do with what they will put out product wise, at least it doesn't seem that way so far. They have posted Marvel stuff, movie stuff, even star wars stuff and they don't seem to have gotten any of those licenses. To me it seems like they just post random fanboy stuff while they don't have any news to post.

Wave 4; I bet Mr Freeze, Catwoman, Batgirl and and ??? I could see the surf guys being variant exclusives.

Wave 4-Freeze,Bookworm,Batman and Batgirl

Wave 5-Catwoman,King Tut,Batman,Chief Ohara

How about Alfred for the 4th figure :-)

[thunderbolt]

the surfer ones will be store exclusives or whatever, and my guess is Tut, Catwoman and two more bat-variants

[MIB41]

Yeah, the surfing figures really serve no purpose without he equipment, because you could mimic the trunks with what they currently sell in-house. Of course, I guess one could argue that for most of the variants. But this one in particular would seem completely pointless without the surfboard.

[madmarva]

What I'd like to see is Tut, Freeze, Batgirl and Newmar Catwoman

[jwyblejr]

Surfboard shouldn't be all that hard to do. Just get ahold of a AJ surfboard and make new molds.

[PNGwynne]

^ Yes, most FTC items are mold swipes & I'm sure there are several options out there, even Barbie/Big Jim boards.

Save Yourself money on $35 Surfer variants, get the SURF Boards from Lasermego and swim trunks from someone Here or as stated from the accessories on FTC'S SITE and you will be good to go.

So far the FTC variants aside from the Pink Cowl Batman have been a big disappointment to me.

As for Wave 4 I say finish off the back of the Card Backer

Newmar Catwoman
Freeze
King Tut
Bookworm

Wave 5
Alfred
Batgirl
Gordon
O'hara

[thunderbolt]

I just don't see getting a whole wave of villains, they will put a Batman and/or Robin in the wave.

[jeffbearco]

I'm betting when we finally do see female 66 characters, they will have boots and gloves similar to the Batman and Robin figures. That may be what has been holding up Batgirl and Catwoman.

How many more Batman versions can they possible make? I'd like to see the Batmobile
for the figures to fit into. For new villains I really want to see Mr. Freeze with souped up
ice cream truck, Joker mobile, Newmar Catwoman, Batgirl/Barbara Gordon, Tut would be cool
but the outfit might be a problem? Colonial Gumm, how about Sandman with fur coat?
and maybe Henchman like Penguin goons and Catwoman henchman with tigers stripe shirts
and those mousekeeter hats.

[thunderbolt]

Tut's outfit should no more of a problem to FTC that what they have produced so far for the series. Gumm is a no go due to likeness issues with Roger Carmel's estate, not sure about Micheal Renne, DC used him once, then changed his likeness later in the comic series.
