      Agreed, this is always great.

      Have there been any photos released of Titans Series 2? I can't find any. Curious to see if Robin gets a new head sculpt, or if they go with one of the existing Robin heads.

        No 1966 Batman. Is the line dead?

            Any specific reason why FTC remains non-committed to a release time frame for the KISS figures? Sounds like they might be doing allot of back and forth with the factory on this one to get the quality they desire for this line up. .

              It's curious...whenever they show photos of forthcoming figures, they seem to be either production samples or actual production figures, as opposed to prototypes. I've never noticed whether or not a figure has changed from announcement photo to production figure, perhaps they have but I feel like they are the same. It leads me to believe the figures are produced and waiting in the wings somewhere. We saw those photos quite a while ago, so I guess they must have some sort of release plan?

              I'm just guessing, I have no actual idea...
              Expectation is the death of discovery.

                I'm still hoping that we see the first Wonder Woman wave sooner rather than later. My birthday is in March! That would be a great excuse to get the whole set if they look good!

                They listed Mighty Mightor in the initial Hanna Barbara announcement but we haven't heard anything else about him since.

                    yeah, really starting to wonder about it. They have one good wave left in it if they do both Catwomen in the same wave.

                      ^Maybe, considering the intense discussion of Batgirl, FTC is dotting their "I"s and crossing their "T"s with the Catwomen.

                        Hope that's true, since there's no way this line ends without 1 or 2 Catwoman figures, the FTC factory might get stormed

                          That would be a wise move on FTC's part to get Catwoman done right, and for good measure a Batgirl redo would be an added bonus.

                            I didn't have a problem with Batgirl, but if history proves anything about people on the internet there's no way FTC can win over most folks here with Catwoman. They aren't going to offer a new female body so the same folks will fuss over that even if the likeness and head size is spot on. I hope I'm wrong, but when it comes to the female figures the criticisms seem to outweigh the good.

                            FTC is doing astounding work, I'll be surprised if they deliver all that product on the specified months. What a production schedule to look forward to.

                              I happen to think the criticisms against the Batgirl figure were justified.

                              I do like FTC and have purchased numerous figures, virtually all of the Batman ’66 line (aside from Heroes in Peril), but that one was a perfect storm of bad.

                              I already knew the FTC female body had issues. I opened up a Harley Quinn as was treated to a unstandable hunchback.

                              So, to me, after replacing the body w/a Mattel one the only saving grace would be the head and the costume.

                              Are people being overly critical? I don’t think so, not in this case. The atrocious female body has prevented me from even bothering with other lines (like Superfriends) because I don’t want to bother dealing with replacing the janky body.

                              BUT, I would deal with it for Catwoman. Which brings me to the only point in buying the figure - for the head and costume. If those are a train-wreck…then for me, the ball game is over.

                              I’m happy with the dozens of figures I have, for the most part FTC’s Batman ’66 line is a dream come true, but I would rather put my money into something like the Tweeterhead line.
