More Mattel Batman 66: Joker and Batusi Batman!

[SeattleEd]

I can't believe I've sat thru that twice. Its hypnotizing. Much better than listening to the bellyachers about this line.

5 times now 6 for me. In just two days. Very hypnotic. LOL

She's right, they are very expensive. Enough to give me pause about buying the whole set. As it stands, I have to have Batman and Robin. Probably Riddler. The rest will be as I can afford them.

Thank you, Carl.

I can't Believe We Continue to Taint this Thread for the Idea that People Are Getting Priced outta The Hobby Over 18 Buck Figures.

I've Collected DCU Type Figures since the Begining ...
Most the 1's You Get on Matty Collector these Days Cost like 30 Bucks ...
with the Larger Figures Costing 60 When Shipped ...

Places like Big Bad Toy Store, Pile Your Loot, so You Only Pay for Shipping Once..., and Other Stores as well as BBTS Sell Sets . ....

I'm Not Rich By Any End of the Imagination ...
But Come on ..., 20 Bucks ..., is Like 5 Bucks a Week ..., and a Figure a Month If Need Be .... , And I'm Sure Everyone, Everywhere Throws atleast 5 Bucks Away Every Week on some Bull**** *** Crap .

So Far There's Like Only 5 New CHaracters by yrs End.... Plently of time to Save.
But it is all about the Priorities ..., now isn't it. The Fact is .., whatever Means the Most to you ..., is what your gonna Spend 5 Bucks on, it is what it is ..., and thats Fine too.

Hell, Most DC Direct Figures in Comicbook Shops ..., have really been 20+ For Years.

Just Say'in ... Move On.

Fully articulated six inch figures with dead-on likenesses and an in-scale TV accurate Batmobile? Who do I throw my cash at?
Wait til they get to wave three...then four...then announce a Batcycle, or Batcopter...or maybe even a Batcave playset...heck, Mattel DID make an incredible new Castle Grayskull.

I figure anybody who doesn't buy into the Mattel line from the start will be cryin' the blues BIG TIME later. And they'll end up paying through the nose to get figures they could've had for $17.

[boynightwing]

If they make a Batcave playset my brain will likely explode. I'd spend money on that and the car. Maybe it would come with Alfred and a little red phone.

My girlfriend is telling me I have to get the Batmobile, which is out of character for her lol. So yeah, I do think they are pricey but she's saying its an investment given that it is my favorite tv show. I might be in Bizzaro World.

Okay- have my order in and will have some of these available to members here. Prices would be $50 for each set of 3 from the first wave, the 2 pack of batman and robin would be $30 each- both do not include shipping, it would be the actual shipping cost to you. Let me know if you're interested. They are scheduled to ship in July.

Action Figure Insider just revealed Mattel's '66 Catwoman!

[Earth 2 Chris]

It's a lovely sculpt but I'm not really seeing Julie Newmar.

[MIB41]

^^^ I agree. Nice sculpt and paints. But I don't see the actress in there at all.

[Earth 2 Chris]

I see her, but it's more of a cartoony, romanticized portrait. It kind of fits the old days of TV when all the pretty ladies had the camera Vaselined up for their close-ups.

Hmmmm, I don't know. It's a great sculpt, no doubt. Probably one of the best or even the best female sculpts Mattel has done. Feminine without being overly exaggerated or caricature. It certainly invokes the 66 Catwoman. I'm just not seeing Julie Newmar right now. The head sculpt is lovely if not slightly generic.

[ScottA]

Ok, so I may have to get these after all.

[Earth 2 Chris]

^Yeah, I don't think I can pass these up either. I don't think I'll be in for all the variants, etc., but I must get one of every character, me thinks!
