    When I found an original naked Batman, and I got clothes from Doc Mego, I got blue shorts too. It just looks better that way.

    BTW...I think I'm gonna get some purple "Robin" type shoes for the Riddler. He looks like he's wearing Dr. Dentons! My custom Riddler is in purple hero boots.

    Thanks to those who posted pics. These look awesome and it's only the beginning of the awesome things coming from FTC.

    WGSH is back just the way we remember them.

    The more close up pics I see, the more I like these figures. I was too hard on those early photos and I apologize for that. FTC did a good job on these. Congrats FTC. You guys deserve allot of credit.

    I really like the resealable clamshell. I cut off the FTC tag and used a wire-cutter to cut off the twist ties. I then used an exacto knife to make a slit between the holes of the twist tie so I could remove it. Now I am able to take a figure in and out with no problem. I really like how I didn't have to cut through the packaging to get the figure out.

    It's been a LONG time since I've held any of these in my hands but I thought that there was something different about Robin's shoes.

    Well I opened mine and there is a difference in the Robin shoes. Mego was made of soft plastic were FTC is made of hard plastic. I do not like the way Batman utility belt keeps riding up. I do like the fact that the male bodies can stand on there own and not in there old pee pee dance stance. Growing up I never owned a Riddler so I cannot tell you the difference. My Joker is separated from my LOD, I is in his own shelf with the FTC Clowns. Know to get a Harley Quinn and I will be happy.

    No, they are not exactly like Mego's but far good enough for me.
    I give them an A- to B+.
    Happy Birthday! It certainly doesn't get any better than that... Enjoy these and your B-Day!
