Well, there is a resemblance, but her face is too shiny, and her eye shadow is too dark. I wonder what the Figures one will look like."Do you believe, you believe in magic?
'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

Yes, I see her cheek bones but the eyes are so heavily done it looses some of Julie.
I'd be happy with a statue/figurine of her without the articulation.Better late than never.....Comment

The figure resembles the singer of Deee-Lite more than Julie Newmar IMO.Comment

I think the look is based on early promo photos of Julie...Very subdued...

^Yes, it looks like her first season appearance with the shorter hair, and more eye makeup.

I didn't realize until reading this AFI article that Mattel's 66 Batman is a Toys R Us and online exclusive. Sucks that they won't be in Wal-Mart and Target. Batmobile won't be available at online stores, just TRU.Comment

I believe the Batmobile is the TRU exclusive. The regular figures should be everywhere.

According to the Mattel rep interviewed for the article it's just Toys R Us and Internet sellers like bigbadtoys.com and entertainmentearth, amok time. The Internet specialty shops won't have the Batmobile, just TRU.
The rep may have misspoken but I doubt it. I believe he would have mentioned Wal-Mart, world's largest retailer, when asked a direct question about which retailers would carry the line. That would be a pretty big mistake.Q1. What retailers should fans expect to carry the Batman Classic 1966 TV Show figures?
A1. The Batmobile is a Toys R Us exclusive. The other items can be found at Toys R Us and other fine online retailers.

^Ah, I see what you are seeing now. I didn't know TRU had the retail lock on this whole line. That hasn't worked out too well for Mattel and DC in the past...!!!

So Walmart didn't bite at a '66 Batman display? Interesting. Because where TRU is involved, you can always expect an uptick of prices that typically you don't see at Walmarts or Targets, simply because there's not as many outlets to fill shelves as there are in those stores. With so many players in the licensing game, I was expecting better distribution of product. That's definitely a game changer.Comment
