    Batman season 3 villains??

    Watching Batman '66 on MeTV got me wondering why haven't Figures To Company released the original characters? I would love to add to my collection:

    Olga Queen of the Cossaks with Cossaks
    Louie the Lilac
    Sandman
    Marsha, Queen of Diamonds
    Aunt Hilda
    Lord Marmaduke Ffogg
    Lady Penelope Peasoup
    Lola Lasagne
    Calamity Jan
    The Archer
    The Puzzler
    The Minstrel
    The Clock King
    The Siren
    Colonel Gumm
    Ma Parker
    Chandell
    Black Widow

    I would take either the Batman '66 tv versions or the Batman '66 comic book version.

    There are many characters to which they do not have likeness rights and which are not part of the master license. This is a bit confusing, because some characters seemingly not available to FTC (like Eli Wallach's Mr. Freeze) have appeared later in other formats.

    In Wallach's case, it might just be that they already did Preminger's Freeze and didn't feel a need to do a later variant. The various "'66" comics were inconsistent as well with likenesses, notably Batman Meets Steed & Peel.

    I'll admit that I'd like generic or comic versions of some of the characters you list.

      66 Comic versions should be doable. The comic used Slezak's likeness so I imagine its available.

        Some of those mentioned could be custom made, the outfits would be the most difficult but not impossible
        but the ones you mentioned, I would of liked to have seen 66 Louie the Lilac and Olga so she can hang out with Egghead.

          Olga makes the most sense.
          And as a bonus with some work could be made into a Zelda the Great custom.

            If that's the reasoning, I'm sorry to hear that, as I still would like a George Sanders Mr. Freeze.

              I agree, I love Sanders' work and he's my favorite Freeze.

                Pa Kent or Perry White with a hair repaint might work for Sanders in a pinch.

                  FTC should have tried to work out Ann Baxter's likeness rights, would have been a two for one special.

                    Zelda has the better episodes, but you can tell Baxter is having so much fun with Olga--she and Price were friends off the set.

                      Pa Kent makes a very passable Commisioner Gordon with slight repainting. I don't have Perry in hand, but I will consider your idea for Freeze. Dang cigar.

                        I thought it came out? There is one pic on the site without it in his mouth?

                          I was wondering what was up with that as well. I didn't buy all the 66 figs. Just the ones I liked. I'm assuming sales may have dropped off a bit? I would like to get.
                          Olga Queen of the Cossaks
                          Louie the Lilac
                          Sandman
                          Marsha, Queen of Diamonds
                          The Siren
                          Colonel Gumm

                          Marsha, Queen of Diamonds would make a good custom for Morticia Addams
                          Colonel Gumm = Harry Mudd
                          The Siren = Edith Keeler from Star Trek
                          I would have to buy 2 of each of these.

                            are they even still making new figures in this line? I kind of lost interest in what they were putting out so stopped paying attention

                              I think they are done and moving on with Wonder Woman '77.
