    Batman 66 MIA Characters

    I can't think of any other 8 inch line with as many characters as the FTC Batman 66 line. Maybe the Space 1999 line...maybe. But we didn't get three vehicles and two play environments for that line.
    What characters are missing that you would have wanted?
    Obviously the Commissioner missing hurts almost as much as Koenig missing hurt the 99 line. It just seems odd they could do O'Hara but not Gordon.

      Neil Hamilton's and Madge Blake's estates didn't sign on to the licensing agreement, unlike the other regulars. Some artists in the Batman '66 comic cheated and drew Hamilton anyway (like Mike Allred), but for the most part, both he and Aunt Harriet were drawn closer to their comic versions, like in the two Batman '66 animated features. If they released a Gordon or Aunt Harriet figure, they unfortunately couldn't use their likeness.

          Gordon and False Face are pretty easy customs. I've also planned Puzzler, Astin Riddler, Ma Parker, Sandman, Freddy the Fence, Marsha, and Dr. Cassandra Spellcraft.

          If I had a talented tailor available, I'd try to do Olga, Louie the Lilac, and the Siren as well.

          Finding a head for Clock King is challenging. One variant that FTC really dropped the ball on is Jockey Penguin.
          WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                With all the forms I keep sending them when I placed an order for Batman 66 henchman I was happy when they offered them. I surprised that with the actors they couldn't get the gits to they didn't go for the comic book versions. They were close enough to the live action that you could tell the difference.

                  You could also add Aunt Helga to the list, to hang out with Marsha Queen of Diamonds.
                  Another arch criminal could be the Minstrel, although he would be a tough outfit.

                        I absolutely love the Batman 66 figures. Arguably the best of all FTC with the Super Friends a close second.
                        I wish for more characters from the show too

                          My main wants would be: False Face, Astin Riddler, Sandman. Dang, if Sandman were made, customizers could give us Klaatu outfits for him!

                          Just this week, I found & ordered 2 of my holy grail figures from this line. Opera Joker and Riddler in hat & suit!

                            it'd be cool if they would extend the line to include the Legends of the Superheroes tv special.
