First pics 1966 tv batman, robin, joker, riddler!

even if they edited it, at least it confirms that what we are seeing are 8 inch. Pretty sure they edited in the sculpting by the farrow guy, too.

Should my confusion contributed here, I apologize. I have been under the misconception that there would be a larger 12 inch scale in this line.

I like the Joker except he should have an old timey tuxedo jacket like the Phantom of the Opera. It looks more like a suit coat with tails.

T-Bolt, thanks for the link.
If I could trust this link to be unedited, I would accept that I misread it originally.
Gilligan's Island states both 8 and 12 scales, I remember it originally said 12 inch only.
I also remember FTC announcing that they were adding the 8 inch scale to Gilligan's Island.
Rereading the Batman 66, it states way too clearly 8 inch scale only. Is it possible this has been edited too?
I just have this (flawed?) memory of it saying 8 and 12 inch scales would be available for Batman 66.

I hope the gloves on Batman are prototype because the color is wrong.

It seems to me that the tooling for the '66 line could be a real boon for both customizers & FTC: Imagine these sculpted Bat-gloves molded in blue or black, or Robin's gaunlet's in a variety of colors. As Mego did, these items could be used on future figures or sold individually as CTVT usually does.

As much as I would like to get the retro ones to take me back to the megos I had as a child, I have to say that these will take priority. So much more deail. if it works out I can afford these, they will definately make me a happy guy.

The Joker is outstanding! The talented Bliet hooked me up years ago with the rest or I would be all over them too.

[Red Hulk]

I'm liking these the more I see them the Joker and Batman are my favorites.I may have to add these guys to my collection.

Wow, I just discovered this thread, these look fantastic, sold !!!

[Iron Mego]

So the Joker and Egghead head sculpts, and the boots/gloves pics were all for the 8" line?! Cool.

[Earth 2 Chris]

^Well, I for one, am glad. I wouldn't mind seeing a limited amount of 12" DC figures from them down the line, but let's get a few waves of 8" going first.

that says 8 inch only also. the first paragraph is misleading the way it was worded. It reads like 8 and 12 inch for everything, then down the release its specific which is in which scale. Guessing 12 inch is off limits for DC due to Hot Toys already doing it.

I could be wrong, but I was thinking of the press release for the WGSH Batman repros.

[thunderbolt]

Ah, I couldn't remember which line it was that 12 inch would be done in addition to 8 inch. But I remember in the original press release, they did say 12 inch. So, does that mean we can expect up scaled 12 inch versions of WGSH repros?

right from the press release:
