This shot with the 2 bios side-by-side really drives home the subtle difference between Kenner and McFarlane. Do you view Batman as the Caped Crusader who is an "accomplished acrobat" and "ace crimonologist", or do you view Batman as the Dark Knight, "the ultimate vigilante" who "watched as his parents were brutally killed"?

You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
Todd said walmart dot com at the end of the video. Not there yet but their collector con is july 21st so betting that's when they will be available there online.
The thing is, no one here is under the illusion we are talking to Mr. Mcfarlane. There's zero chance he is lurking here or reading my posts. We are discussing it politely with each other. Which we are kinda allowed to do here.
Mcfarlane toys knows how to do retro and keep with in a style. Just look at Batman 66. They look good.
Mcfarlane toys, obviously, has the right to make whatever they wish and we have the right to discuss it.
Well he is making them but aren't they under the DC Direct label.....could be he is making what he is told to on this line?
A few things I've noticed after having some time to play around with it. On the announcement video Mcfarlane posted he mentioned the side compartments are to put bad guys in. The problem with that is, the compartments are too small. Not even the smallest figures like Robin fit. The plastic isn't vintage Kenner nice. It feels maybe a bit thinner and cheaper. It's still really nice and I recommended it. It looks great and the action features are fun.

Judging by their Star Wars, Real Ghostbusters, GI JOE and Transformers reproductions, we would be getting spot on reissues of the original SP figures. It would also be a lot of fun to get an Invisible Jet which Kenner had in the planning stages. But with Mcfarlane's bizarre view on female action figures it's probably really unlikely we'll even get a Wonder Woman.
I still hope the line is successful and continues and I do think the vehicles are nice. It's like if Toy Biz had continued Super Powers.

I just checked the only figure small enough to fit in the Supermobile side compartments is Wonder Woman. One of the characters least likely to get made is the only one that fits. The actual villain figures Lex, Joker, Penguin, Brainiac, Darkseid, etc. not a chance.

Still haven't found any Super Powers yet. I want this lineup to keep going. I would love to get a Wonder Woman and her Invisible Jet, Aquaman and his Jet Ski Brainiac and some type of Skull Ship and of course Luthor and his Lex-sonar 7.
Superman never put villains in the compartments on his Supermoblie in the comics or cartoon, just kryptonite or space items.
