RC Batman & Alfred SOLD OUT!

[samurainoir]

Looks like the ongoing variant strategy seems to be working for FTC. They can continue to put out different versions of Batman and Robin in order to support the newer, probably less popular characters like Alfred and Commissioner Gordon (to the casual consumer). The next variant Batman and Robins out of the gate will be the Fist Fighters/Super Powers right?

I'm suspecting Wave 2 is moving more slowly because it did not have a Batman and Robin.... as much as Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson alter egos are coveted in the Mego collector community, it's because of their rarity. The casual Batman fan wants Batman. I guess this theory will be tested when they release the Batman 66 alter egos.

I don't panic order anymore...lol
If I can't get a full line I won't even bother to order it!!!

I just don't think many people want the Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson figures, especially since the RC Batman and RM Robin were coming in the next wave.

I'd wager the Batman 66 Bruce and Dick will sell a bit better but I think the Mego versions were going to bog down sales of any wave they were in.

I'm still picking and choosing from both the 66 and standard lines.

From the 66 line so far I just have Joker. I'll probably order Penguin because I like it a lot better than the original Mego.
I may pick the 66 Bruce and Dick in Batman/Robin costumes if they look as great as the rest of the figures. Curious to see what the other 2 figures with those will be. I don't think I heard that yet.

As for the "standard" figures, I got the 2 pack Batman/Bruce and an Alfred. I'm planning on getting a Commissioner Gordon, Wonder Woman, and maybe Batgirl.

Skipping the Teen Titans for now.

So many to choose from, I'd end up filling a room with them if I got everything that caught my eye!!!

There are many, many stores that ordered the product. The manufactured sold out, which means they will continue to manufacture further sets. Believe me, the product is available.
