    My Batcave Arrived!

    BUT I can't open it until Father's Day.
    So, I'd appreciate it if someone else can post pics of something other than the box.

    Wow, won't you be disappointed when you find out it's a shirt, slacks and a tie...

        Mine did too. It's quite nice, with an added element from the original Mego Batcave, another wall that constitutes the atomic reactor and the batcomputer. I do question the need to include a Batman figure - seems like a way to justify the higher price.

          ... or move stagnant inventory.

          Is the Batman the RC version? The box shows both versions.

            Might have been better if they included an exclusive Alfred with the Batcave set, instead of putting him in the series release with Freeze-Tut and Bookworm and gave us another arch criminal from the 66 series instead.

              It is not. It's the regular '66 figure from the 1st series.

                      People rarely post photos on here of stuff. It's odd.

                      FTC stuff in particular, unless it's to complain about something. But hopefully we'll get some pics of this eventually.

                        FTC posted a few new pics in their Facebook page if that helps.

                          Yeah I’ve noticed that too. Even the pics on fb the comments were complaining about the batmobile used in Photos etc.

                          Hope to see someone on here post their own pics rather then FTC photography. Looks really cool but I don’t know if I have the space for it unless I really love it.

                            I usually come through with pictures these days!

                            My order just arrived yesterday... after I had FTC cancel the two new Supergirl figures I had ordered, after it became clear their delayed release was holding up my order.

                            I agree with you guys that the criticism is a bit much. I don't think anyone's above criticism, and FTC could and should take some to heart. But they've given us so much great stuff, and it's hard not to get excited with each new release. Some of the usual suspects are starting to seem like they just like to complain. We'll all miss FTC when they're gone!

                            Anyway, here we go:



















                            I really, really like the '66 Batcave! I don't have the space or time or picture-taking skills to do it justice. The main piece, when folded up, is about the same size as the old classic Mego Batcave. The additional piece is about a third of that.

                              It looks like a lot of fun. Appreciate the pics, Jim! Thanks. The Harvey/Harley variants are really growing on me too.
