Help Toycade select their next 1966 Batman exclusive!

[Boxheadman]

Jeffbearco is on the right track. You likely are never going to see new sculpts in an exclusive. Most likely a variant costume, re-deco or new accessory. All great ideas so far!

[The Bat]

This....

YES! With a NEW head sculpt the actually looks like frank Gorshin!

I would guess Green Hornet and Kato are a totally different license wrangle, and if they did get that license, it wouldn't be released as an exclusive like this.

I vote for the Gorshin in green suit and bowler above!

How about an unmasked Jill St. John as Robin?

We are working closely with our friends at Figures Toy Company to select our next exclusive! I can't give you any details (sorry!) but would love to hear from you! I would say the next set of exclusives is staying close to the same "feel" as the last set of exclusives. So, what would you do? A villain? An alter ego? Batman with a look from a specific episode? If you guess it, I won't tell. If you are close, I still won't tell. Your input is valuable to us. We are one of the little guys. Committing to an exclusive is a big deal to us and we appreciate your help!

Just to clarify, do you actually work with Toycade?

I am part of the 3-headed Hydra that is Toycade. Just got off the phone and "sealed the deal!" I think you will all be quite pleased! At least I hope you are. I have kids to feed.

Has no mentioned this guy?!

Seems like an obvious one. And, if you went removable mask - just think of the extra purchases from people wanting to make Gomez customs!

I'd be down with any of the selections made here.

He was mentioned in the last post of the first page.

Ok, cool! Skimmed through looking for that and must have missed it. Just seemed obvious.

Let me pull back the curtain for a moment and explain how the exclusive process works... Figures Toy creates a list of potential exclusives. They share that list with us and allow us to select one. Your input on forums like this is shared by me to them for ideas for potential future exclusives. Your input REALLY matters! It sounds like many of you were unhappy with the Gorshen likeness of the first figure. It would appear that there is strong demand for a unmasked Riddler with a better likeness. My assumption would be that Figures would save an Astin Riddler for themselves. Kato and the Green Hornet as an exclusive will never happen without a retail release first. I am by no means confirming or denying a coming Green Hornet line, just trying to clarify for you guys.

Agree with the bolded, assuming he is also in the green suit.

I am trying to talk them into Scooby Doo with celebrity retail exclusives. Likely cost-prohibitive due to likeness restrictions, but I think it would be a lot of fun. Put us down for Davy Jones or Jerry Reed.

Don Knotts and Mama Cass. ;-)

Yes, we just don't want the same riddler released before with no mask. The a Riddler everyone is asking for is this one. The outfit is very different. Jacket, shirt, tie. Pants and hat. image.jpg
