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

Wish they would just concentrate on 8 inch figures for all of their lines. I would love to have those J. R. Ewing figures in 8 inch. I don't collect 12 inch figures of anything so I will have to pass on them.

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?

[thunderbolt]

yeah, they aren't doing any Batman 66 in 12 inch:

Pretty sure there are no 12" 1966 Bats figs coming from FTC.

Batman and Joker are my favorites by far but as mentioned I'd like to see them concentrate on 8 inch and really make them great.

[Astronut]

I also agree. 100%. 8-Inch is the format they need to focus on. Hands-down.

[Hedji]

^Agreed. 12 Inch could really oversaturate and distract from the 8 inch.

Crap, I forgot about the 12" versions. I wish they'd honestly just bypass those. Maybe do Batman and Robin and that's it. Seems to be muddying the water for the 8" to me.

Uh-oh. Have any of you read the FTC fine print in the upper right hand corner of the Batman Pic? "Head sculpt shown is only available on 12” figures. The 8” sculpt will differ slightly." These guys pis$ me off. Scroll down for pic of actual 8" sculpt.

Haha!! Awesome! I was wondering if these were the 12" versions.

The one thing that stands out that I don't like are Robin's leggings/pantyhose, whatever they're called. Batman and Joker really look great.

But I will say, I'm a little concerned about quality, even the more recent stuff. I ordered a set of 2012 Mad Monster figures, carded, and not only is the Mummy's head wobbling like it's about to come off, but some of the hands feel super loose, as if they are one motion away from coming off. I thought the 2012 MM Series was built with improved parts?? I just got my WGSH Batman Series 1 set the other day and I'm almost scared to open them for fear the limbs are gonna fall off... at least that's what I'm seeing in these threads.

Sounds like the Mummy's extra wrap is too tight and pulling the head out of the body. This is what happen the first time I tried to re-wrap this piece. The wrists tend to have a loose swivel. Having removed and replaced these hands, I found no risk of them falling off. I've been buying the India produced glow monster hands from CTVT in quantity. The 2012 hands are much better. Improvements to the limbs are very evident in these 2012 bodies when compared to the India production. Can't wait to test the Retro Batman line as soon as I can afford.
