I paid 15.97 a piece for them @Walmart, not sure what there going for @ TRU. I may take them back, I"m not entirely sold on these yet. Impulse buying kicked in.Comment

Hmmm. I saw this set at a TRU store tonight. I thought this was only something you could get online or through comic shops? It seems like the distribution mystery continues.
I sure wish Mattel had a way of letting fans know what's really going on with this line. Like the internet or something.

I never heard anything about the two pack being an exclusive, or only available through comic shops. The Batmobile is the only thing I heard would be an exclusive.Comment

I also discovered something interesting about the packaging artwork. Apparently Warner Bros must have a strict policy on the artwork being used, because it's identical to the artwork FTC has on their cases and backer cards. Which raises some good questions about likeness. If we examine FTC's case artwork and backer cards, the characters show ZERO resemblence to the television cast. But the figures do have actor likeness. There's also Batgirl artwork... So this certainly opens the door for there to be either a generic or actor-specific version if need be. Which screams that Warner Bros. can (and will) work around Yvonne with minimal fuss.Comment

I haven't seen any of this Crap at Walmart.... or any retail here for that matter.... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.
always trading for Hot Toys Figures .Comment

Unless I'm mistaken, the card art for the FTC '66 TV figures utilizes screen caps from the show. The card art for the repro line utilizes the style guide artwork designed by Jose Luis Garcia Lopez that is ALSO featured on the Mattel packaging (Barbies too). There are two different things going on at FTC (repro and TV) but their packaging is using the all encompassing art that WB/DC designed for this whole retro '66 marketing and that's what's confusing the issue.Comment
