What we know so far...

[Boy_Wonder_1978]

As much as I'm looking forward to these, I'm a little bit chuffed they're not due till next year. A bit of breathing space left to get everything else that's MEANT to be out this year.

2016 is Wonder Woman's 75th anniversary! Wonderful tribute!

Gladly updated to finally add a Wonder Woman series. Kinda disappointed that it isn't until 2016. Maybe for my birthday in March!!!

Lots of hope that these turn out great!

Also moved Scooby-Doo up to late 2015 along with Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera.

Updated to show pre-order status on a couple of items.

The only way to do removable masks is like a pair of glasses (basically like the ones they actually wore in the show from what I've seen). Rooted hair is going to make it very hard to use an elastic band like Robin's mask (impossible if the hair is actually styled in some way like Solomon Kane). The glasses/mask would be a perfect way to easily put on and take off the mask without mussing the hair. Now, they might be thinking of offering versions with masks sculpted on the face as exclusives instead, but I really think that would be a major mistake that would tick off a large part of their target market here. A removable mask is not that difficult here if it is designed correctly.

Both the Barbie Julie Newmar Catwoman and the Tonner Julie Newmar Catwoman have a mask with a band and they seem to hold up pretty well. Years ago DC Direct did 13" figures and they had snap on masks that fit the face without any bands. Green Arrow, Black Canary, Robin and Green Lantern all had these types of masks. Something like this would be great for Catwoman. She must include her mask. The Mattel Catwoman 6" figure looks stupid without hers. It's my least favorite version of Julie so far. Catwoman was never seen in public without her mask on...unless she was at the prison or police station, or undercover as Miss Kitka.

Maybe I was a bit hasty saying no Catwoman release until next year, maybe will see one
by Christmas? I would like to see a False Face sometime soon and maybe Henchman for 2017?
a 4 figure henchman relase, Penguins Goon, Joker henchman (giggler) Mr. Freeze henchman
(Frosty) and a Catwoman henchman with tigerstripe shirt and Mouseketeer ears.

I think a henchman pack or one per wave are a must; they were a very important part of the show, almost as vital as the main villains themselves. THey wouldn't need to try to get actual likenesses or anything; they could probably get away with using some of the generic heads they already have (though head scale might be a little bit of an issue there, with the '66 heads being a tad bigger).

A good Batgirl and Catwoman combo could find its way under a lot of Christmas trees this year if they are available!

Personally, I'd love it if they skipped the non-removable mask versions of both and did removable mask versions right from the start!

^^^ Could Not AGREE MORE!

FTC: has BOTH Julie Newmar's & Eartha Kitt's CATWOMAN pictures depicting them Without their masks! I hope they are NOT going to try to force a whole 2nd purchase to get BOTH Newmar & Kitt Catwoman figures with the iconic Cat mask. I will buy x2-3 of each Catwoman figure IF they have removable Masks. Catwoman without having the option to be either Masked or mask-less is a BIG FAIL to me, considering it would be just to get future purchases. If they have in scale heads & removable masks, I'll probably end up with at least x3 of each, but IF they go with molded Masks or mask-less without including a RM, I might buy x1 of each & be bored by the time the 2nd version is presented. If they go Maskless & do NOT include a Mask, but then make the RM versions of Catwoman $35 exclusives...... I will NOT play that game....@ All! This concludes my daily rant about (& threats to) FTC. We will now return to our regularly scheduled program.

My biggest wants are Catwomen (Julie, Eartha and Lee), Riddler in the jacket suit, Commissioner Gordon, Vote For Penguin, False Face and the Surfer Batman/Joker. These all seem like must make figures in my eyes. Sure, Green Hornet and Kato are right up there on my list too, but I know these two are probably off the table. Maybe even Lee's Catwoman isn't part of the deal either considering she's from the movie.

Next Year! No way! You can start X'ing off Calender days now for this year!

^ Yay! Thanks MickeyMooseMego! GREAT HINT! I wonder, when you said 1 of the 2 exclusives that will come out this year will surprise us, as it being an exclusive "More to our liking"), I'm wondering if 1 exclusive's announcement will be "EARTHA Shattering" to me personally? I wondering if 2015 will be a "NEW year not MARred by being catless for 66". Or Could my year be full of Batman 66 goodies, "NEW" & the whole "KITT" & Caboodle? LOL!

Either way,

Thanks 4 the above hints friend! (& NO I don't really expect you to answer/acknowledge my shameful hinting at further hinting lol!

[mickeymoosemego]

I like it all but still no Catwoman release, maybe next year.
