    Teen Titans Robin card art from Figures Toy! Don't forget to vote for Wave 2!

    Figures Toy recently announced that planning for Teen Titans Series 2 is under way. The original lineup first produced by Mego in the seventies consisted of Aqualad, Kid Flash, Speedy, and Wonder Girl. Series 2 will include a teen-sized Robin and three more characters never released in the Mego format. Visit the Mego Museum forums…

    I like the art--much more that the Bat-stuff--& look forward to this version of the Teen Wonder.

    Regarding the art, will FTC be correcting Speedy's tights to match?

      If I were FTC, I'd release Robin with the first wave and forget wave 2. I don't see a second wave (outside of Robin) selling too well. Maybe with us old guys here, but that's it.

        Plus blot out his freakin eyes. Same with Robin.

        And scrap Wonder Girl's body and remodel off of a Brady.

          WOW...a Titan sized Robin! It's very exciting, but I feel I should temper my expectations until I see the prototype. And I agree..."white out the eyes."

            Brown Bear, with all due respect, I hope your prediction is very wrong. Would love to have Perez/Wolfman's Titans.

              Absolutely LOVE the artwork. Really nice. Robin's mask is green on the illustration. It would be cool to finally have a Mego style figure with a green mask. My fingers are crossed these turn out descent. It will be strange though seeing Robin on a tiny body after all these decades in the 8 inch frame. Not sure how that will translate. I still think it would be great to just keep them all 8 inches and do away with the smaller scale. But this is fun news nonetheless. I think going after the rare characters is a smart move. And if they expand it into the Perez era, I will be ecstatic. Those would really sell (I think).

                Yeah, i would have been all over 8" Teen Titans, its the one aspect from the originals that i think most collectors will agree on.

                    I think the card art works quite well.

                    I'm hoping the Titan Robin is a new sculpt with hair like this, rather than simply being a shrink of the Mego head with the center-part.

                        Dick Giordano baby. Oh yeah. Great stuff. That is really simple and sharp.

                          I do too. If not just do a Nightwing or something like that. I have no interest in a 7" version of the original Mego figure.
                          It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                            Robin is the first figure to grab my attention. The art has the sleeveless Speedy not the short sleeves.

                            To me the New Teen Titans were all late teens and all grown (except Gar). I see them as 8 inch not 7. It will still be cool if ant of them get made.
                            Better late than never.....

                              Same here! I want to see a Neal Adams style head.But past experience has taught me not to get my hopes up to high.
