    Just superb. I hope later they'll do a purple cycle for Batgirl.

      I smelled that one coming and that's very cool. Nice work on those too. Look very authentic. I'll be curious to see if they followed the same locking design on the passenger attachment. I have my original Mego Batcycle but the attaching insert for the passenger side is so worn out it barely works. Barely worked in the 70's. Some great news in this letter that I missed this past week. Really love the customs again. Some great work going on right now.

          I can see a 70s/80s Robin Cycle (minus the sidecar) in my future. Great work on the newsletter as always!

            Agreed! I always wanted a Robin Cycle after seeing Garcia Lopez' version in the DC Style Guide!!
            And no more trolling ebay trying to get a side car to replace my lost one for my Black Batcycle!
            ( I wonder what this will do to prices of OEM Batcyles once these repros hit?)

            Here's to hoping we get:

            * A Green One for Green Arrow /Speedy
            * A purple one for Batgirl 66 ( I always used the Blue one for Batgirl, & the Black one for Batman and Robin)
            * A white one for Captain America

            Definitely plan on purchasing all three, Black to replace my broken one, a Blue and Red one to Customize!
            ( hopefully at less than $30 a cycle)

                    I was waiting for someone to notice! I played with one of Robyn's concept drafts.

                          I think if one tried to collect every FTC DC figure they would starve to death.

                          There's some very nice looking stuff there. Not sure about Bruce as Barry, since the face doesn't match the Flash depicted here, but I love the idea and the suit. Faces on Boomerang and Trickster look dead-on classic Infantino.

                          As always, fascinating stuff going on at the MM. Great job peeps!

                            I have managed to keep up with what I have wanted so far, but at least some of my purchases have been blow-out priced. There are going to be some tough choices to be made when everything I want is roughly $33/ea shipped. I am starting to fall behind. But all in all, a nice problem to have.

                              Lots of cool stuff! That Space Ghost head would make a good Animated Batman with some ears.

                                Yep. That's me exactly. These days I just order my favorites from these lots. I have a fun mixed bag of figures coming from these sets. I'm thinking about putting Lil D back in front of the camera for these. They're really fun licenses and I think he would love them. Especially Space Ghost!
