Superfriends Robin..........

Maybe they will include reverse symbols with the figures, the way that they included extra bat symbols with the original Batman figures.

Clara Peller. I find it amazing that there are cells in my brain whose job it is to remember the name Clara Peller for 30 years until now.

This is a cool announcement but after such a long wait I was hoping for a bit more. Only one new reveal and an update on an already announced figure. Where is the meat....

I know I was really HUNGRY & already knew about Gleek & Robin was a given, but even just a list of some upcoming waves w/ their Super Friends pictures would be great.

I KNOW I'm going to be in the minority here, But I'm NOT happy they are using the Batman 66 gloves & probably boots. They are rubbery & to tell the truth, I'd prefer them to have either molded sturdy plastic gloves or the plastic molded "Handless" wrist gauntlets for gloves w/ colored "Mego" hands. This is not a deal breaker, but I hope they stand fine & the gloves & boots are not easily falling off.

I'm excited either way! Challenge of The Super Friends is my FAVORITE because I love the rivalry w/ the Legion of Doom! I want GIGANTA & Apache Chief in 8" & at least 12" too! Otherwise I would be disappointed I can't make them "grow" when I'm playing "Megos" SUPER FRIENDS!

I also hope WONDER WOMAN has ROOTED Hair! There are definitely ways to root it in a way it has the shape & they could use Mego's clear headbands to hold it in place if not her preferably removable tiara!

? I have not yet transferred any DC RETRO figures on a FTC body after I beheaded my DC Retro Two-Face by accident after trying to "boil & pop". But does the RA females heads (CHEETAH) fit on a FTC 8" Female body? I'm hoping the Head & costume fit perfectly & I'll just add the short fake FTC "Batgirl" boots to make her more "Mego-y". I'm assuming that FTC might wait on some of the Legion Of Doom figures that DC put out in RA just because they might want to try characters we haven't received yet.

Since I'm going to LOVE this FTC Superfriends line, & I'm not happy so far w/ FTC new WGH figure's detail & head size (so far) NOT fitting in as much as the WGH repros, I might just STOP getting the WGH line all together except for repro Clark Kent & any on the carback that harken back to the more 70s look. I want to support everything, but if FTC is going to crank out so much, the more detailed figures like Ras Al Ghul, Scarecrow & Commissioner Gordon are going to possibly be skipped. Oh wait, the Ras Al Ghul & Scarecrow will possibly fit in w/ the Batman 66 villains in detail, if they do fit seamlessly w/ the 1966 Batman line, I'll probably get x1 of each. "Just when I thought I was out they pull me back in!" -LOL! I can't even commit to quitting a FTC toy line for a full paragraph! Well I'd MUCH rather have the problem of what FTC DC Super Hero line do I QUIT buying, or at least Quit buying multiples of, than having the same old tired "Time Machine" or Magic Spell daydream where I travel back to the 70s w/ old 70s change & rebuy as many megos as possible! These are good times 4 sure! Come On FTC get that QC even better & keep this stuff coming! Don't bite off too much & force us to choose from too much more though! Oh I guess 1 more thing I'd like would be a 8" Lynda Carter Wonder Woman (I'll take 8" Steve Trevor, Nubia, Hippolyta, Diana Prince & Debra Winger Wondergirl on a NEW articulated 7.25-7.5" body). So instead of quitting a FTC 8" line, I just listed another one I'd totally buy!

1 more thing, do you think they will create a body bigger than the TT repro body for SUPERFRIENDS Robin? Also, does he seem to have a bicep swivel in the pic, or do the FTC Batman 66 bodies (or the FTC 66 bodies the sell) pose better & hold poses like this easier than the traditional repro FTC 8" body?

I couldn't tell (moving & didn't have a FTC Batman 66 body handy) if the arm joints & posing on the Super Friends Robin was possibly a New body for this upcoming figure. I do think an articulated teen body (taller than the TT body) would be great for Super Friends Robin & the Wonder Twins (& Wendy & Marvin if they get releases). I'd also love a new SKINNY 8" articulated body for TOYMAN & Sinestro too!

FTC: a NEW (a preferably bandless) body would be great movig forward w/ The Super Friends line. Keep the Mego look & articulation w/ bandless design for improved posing!
Do a new Bandless:
1.) 8" Male Mego body (that can use normal as well as handless/feetless arms/legs)
2.) 8" Female Body (slightly shorter to accommodate high heeled boots & for accurate Super Friend's females' heights)
3.) 8" skinny Male body w/ the 16 POA (Sinestro, Toyman, SF/Filmation Joker, ect.)
4.) +7" male Teen body to make taller than TT teens (Robin, Zan, Marvin, future Titans/sidekicks)
5.) 7" female Teen body to make taller than TT teen females w/ POA matching the 8" female body

^ That's all I ask of you! & keep up w/ the good head scale like Torak & Super Friends Robin! (I'm not asking much.....just 5 Brand NEW Bandless bodies to improve durability!)

*Actually I was just looking at a few Superfriends pics....I hope we get all these FTC Super Friends & LoD figures:

Will never happen...FTC won't change the bodies to bandless or more poseable bodies

Get S-types and be done with it....My Superfriends are going on them

[invisiblelad]

^ Probably right. A Boy (40 yr old Boy) can Dream!

Thanks you.

Wow---some people really really want to pick individual fights. With you types, its never about the matter at hand, but your own personal vendettas, which 99% of the time I have no idea where or why they started...nice way to dirty up a thread.... cause you KNOW I'm not going to let your deliberate venom slide. I may be the more mature of us both, but even I have my limits when it comes to pride.

I'm with you on this one Hugh.

^They should make a 12" SF Robin and then a "Super-Frankenstein" with Angry Bat-head, Superman body and Wonder Woman bracelet and lasso!

One of my favorite episodes. As a kid I was fascinated.

Yeah... I missed where the pics of Robin were too because I looked in the FTC section and not the Announcements section, frankly I have never looked in the annoucements section for updates on FTC stuff. So I felt the "Get your head out of your rear and look around the site.." comment was uncalled for, and frankly when you say something like that to someone the sound of your voice is kinda muffled by your own rear.

You can always hit "New Posts" to see what's come up since your last visit. This is what I do and keeps me from having to search each and every thread. Plus I think it would help cut down on the double posting that's becoming rampant on the board. I swear lately there's at least two threads about every new product.

This. I always do this before starting a new thread. It is a good way to do it. And, you can see everything new since you last visited (very cool)!

I never do that. I only go to the Categories' that interest me(FTC, EMCE, etc...).
