    I really like it. I wish it came with a serving tray though.

      LOL I was thinking that, too--like the B:TAS series figure.

      I suspect the revised card art is due to having used up all the Batman 66 stock art?

        I don't have a problem with the head size. It is just a prototype after all.

          I like it. It fits in the Mego Universe seamlessly where as the Mattel Retro's needed a little imagination to help with total acceptance. The head does look a little familiar to me. Not Connery, but like some other figure I've seen before but can't put my finger on it.

            Not thrilled with the purple pants either but ill be grabbing one.
            It's not a doll it's an action figure.

              This one does kinda look like the Filmation Alfred, but since the first Alfred I ever saw is Alan Napier, I'll wait for the '66 version.

              Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic

                I like Alfred. I'm glad he's not just in a printed suit. With a little work, that head could sub as Lee Van Cleef, who played a ton of Bad guys in Westerns and I think a ninja in a short-lived TV series.

                Can't wait to see what ctvt does with more fresh figures after this excellent start.

                  The pants certainly stand out, but this will probably be my first figure from this company.

                    The pants are comic accurate to most portrayals up through the bronze age. This is from the early 90s loose-leaf Who's Who:

                      It's true they do usually shrink when they're roto-cast in China.

                            I think it's pretty awesome and I'll get one for sure. But I have to say, I think he looks sort of angry, almost villain-like. Not what I expected. I think Mego would have done his expression in a more pleasant way. Like I said, I'm on board with all of these regardless. So happy they're making these.

                              Really nice.
                              But thats not the way mego would have done his suit.
                              It would have been a recycle of the penguin suit.
                              All silkscreened.
                              I do like it tho
                              Action Jackson is his name.
                              Bold adventure is his game.

                                I think his face says "I just zinged Master Bruce with my dry wit". Early Mego would have made him with a smile, but a later release may have been more like this.
