      I want to see them as mego did them.
      Maybe ctvt can make gloves later but they should do these the way mego made them.
      New figures could have the colored hands and cuffs because that's the way mego was progressing.

      Do them on the ones who had 'em. Then move on like MEGO did. Green Arrow didn't have mitts.
      Action Jackson is his name.
      Bold adventure is his game.

          Hopefully, at some point a batman w/o the mitts will happen, but It's fun to get an exact replica.

              For all the MEGO re-issue figures...MITTS! For any new DC characters MEGO didn't make they should go with colored hands and cuffs.

                  Why not have coloured hands and cuffs, with optional mitts packed for those who want to use them?

                    I prefer colored hands.

                    Speaking of which, I wish there would have improved female mannequin hands. Look at the hands of the Breyer 8" dolls. They are perfect: vintage style, larger, and can pick up accessories. Would be a small but great improvement that does not betray the look of the figure.

                      Maybe they could do coloured hands and cuffs under the oven mitts? That way people could display them both ways?

                          Most likely you are going to get a reproduction. Which means the figure will be a reproduction of the original. You will have to be the ones to change the gloves from oven mitts to the molded gloves on their website. They are not going to make any changes to a reproduction figure. I'm betting the oven mitts will be what they do.
                          As much as I despised them, it won't break my bank to replace them with the molded ones with the fingers..etc.

                              I agree. The big question is, how will the mitts be? Past runs of CTVT gloves have been thick & shiny, not very appealing aesthetically or very close to Mego originals.
                              WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                                But the question is in regards to NEW figures that Mego never made. We all know the repros will have oven mitts.
