    Rockin' Robins

    For those that like to compare...

    Robin & Robin.jpg

    I was hoping to move the Mego Robin to a Type S, but his face is too pale.

    Two very nice figures from two different companies.

    Darn, the new Mego Robin looks good. Wasn't planning on getting one but now I'm not so sure...
    The hands that grip.

      Both are good looking figures.

        I like the new Mego Robin. I wish he wasn't as pale as he is, but it's a good figure. But something about him just kept bothering me and kept me from embracing the figure. Then I figured it out... it's the cape. I's not great and it's too thick in the neck area. So, I grabbed an extra FTC Robin cape and that made all the difference for me.

        Original cape on the left, FTC cape on the right.

        I think he looks much better now with that simple adjustment.

          As soon as I saw that new Robin, I knew he was the Robin I wanted on my shelf next to my Superfriends Batman.

          I DID change out his hands and green wrist cuffs for dark green rubber ftc gloved hands though.

          Diamond select Spider-man hands. Long shot, I know...but ya never know..

            That’s a good idea on the gloves. I might do that too. I am not a big fan of the material cuff “gloves” and the FTC plug gloves would look better than hands and the FTC gauntlets.
