Wow, that Penguin might be the best Pengy figure I’ve ever seen! It looks like 1966, Super Powers and Mego all wrapped in one AND he’s short. Homerun for FTC.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Credit where credit is due, these new Batman figures from FTC look really nice! Exciting times for Mego fans, for sure!

That is one outstanding Penguin figure. From looking at it, FTC couldn’t have done a better job.

VERY Super Powers-like Penguin! I take it he has a padded shirt or something? He looks pretty good to me!

I'd like to see them take another shot at the Scarecrow in this 80's style. I think he could look like a million bucks!

sad news about a member passing. what was his handle on here?

[Mary Canary]

Probably in the minority here in saying I'm tired of Batman figures.
BUT - even though this new Penguin and Riddler are not for me, I do think they look fantastic!
Good job, FTC!

[TRDouble]

The new Penguin looks good to me! I am looking forward to this new Batman series. The Riddler and Penguin will fit in perfectly with Two-Face and Catwoman. Now we just have to hope they get Batman right this time.

We haven't seen the new Joker yet, just the Super Friends Joker, right? Or the new Poison Ivy figures?

So much stuff coming....!

[Krypt0nite]

I'm really looking forward to seeing how they do Man-Bat.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how they do Man-Bat.

I forgot about Man-Bat! The updated Batman line-up is looking really good!

[PNGwynne]

That's a nice new Penguin figure. I was concerned that the jacket would be blue; I'm so pleased it isn't.

[Klosterheim]

I really like the look of the new Mego Frankenstein. (Monster)

[TrekStar]

I like the new Penguin, I'm not crazy about it, but it does look good, there's a bunch of other figures I want to get
first, and I too am looking forward to seeing Man-Bat.

Penguin's Awesome!!! I'm curious if he may come with an umbrella: That'd be cool!

tooling a body for one character probably isn't cost effective. Glad you can do it yourself.

I think this figure looks amazing and i'm confused that the first comment is this.

The comment is a sincere one...They can spend money to develop new head sculpts, new costuming, but not go the extra step and
develop a short fat body? it just smacks of taking shortcuts just to pump out new figures that aren't necessary.
It will make the clothing look weird and baggy if it isn't filled out by having it on a fat body.

Certainly Marty and Doc would take the extra step? or am I asking too much of FTC now that they have real competition..?

As for your perplexment, maybe you didn't have your morning coffee? j/k
A discussion forum will have opinions different from yours, thus the beauty of a discussion forum, to discuss
topics and not just be a "yes sir" kiss@$$ board?

He's not my cup of tea, but hey if you want him go for it.

Hope that is more agreeable to you sir.

agreed...so many others to do and fill out...a Green Lantern Wave, Rogues for Superman, Capt. Marvel, and Aquaman, esp. with his movie just around the corner.....Halloween themed releases like a JL Dark line...so much missed opportunity....
