    As in Alfred supposedly having a big head....to me it gives the look that they are taller....Julie's is maker her look taller, not out of proportion...just my take on it

      I think these are fine enough, okay so not super great but the fuss to produce these have been on going, so it's like well here you are finally.

      The costumes I think are pretty much on target, and I don't have a problem with Newmar's body, she was after all a very curvy woman.

      My first impression of Kitt was I thought the body was to skinny, and the face was so-so, but I suppose they didn't want to have an exact copy compared to Newmar.

      From what I hear, female heads and bodies are more difficult than the standard male body, but I guess many of us who get these Catwoman,
      will upgrade to better bodies.

      I know I'm wishing, but I'd love to see them add a gold Cat-o-lac convertible for her down the road, and hearing about henchman coming too
      will be great, curious on which criminal henchman they will make?

          Looking forward to these. I saw the protos last month, look great IMO

          As far as the henchmen, I believe it was reported here that each main villain
          Will be represented

            That's something I'm looking forward too, most likely Joker/Penguin/Riddler and Catwoman will get a personal henchmen
            what I'm curious about is who or what will be used for faces?

              Maybe they'll get new heads...(with masks sculpted on for the Penguin Goons)

                I think these look good. '66 Batman has been FTC's flagship toy line, and I am glad it lasted long enough to do these.

                  Hoping there will be new sculpts for these, would be ok if they did 4-5 generic heads and randomly used them. Would love for them to go all out and do henchmen for Tut and Freeze. Wondering which group they will do for the Riddler, he didn't have a set goon squad.

                    Wonder if they'll do a Lee Meriwether.

                        Well, I wanted to get a second set of the Twins & Gleek, this helps. Can't find them on the FTC site, though.

                          Single Wonder Twins and Gleek are nice for display, but where is Super Friends Wave 6 all Legion of Doom- Luthor, Brainiac, Sinestro, and Scarecrow that were announced last Year? And Wonder Woman wave 1 announced almost 2 years ago?

                            I'm so far behind on Super Friends. I need to get the Wonder Twins for one.

                            As always some really cool stuff I missed. Retro-Action Robin and Joker are such huge holes in that series. Front-loading a toy series with the big guns is problematic for later waves, but in the end it's better than never getting to them at all!

                              That was the best part of the newsletter. Doc's take on Joker and Robin are awesome... gotta be one of my favorite headsculpts ever for Joker. It is a shame these never made it into production.

                                Agreed - that Joker sculpt is all kinds of awesome.
