Thank you Mikey. I know some don't care for variants, but I love them as long as they are valid and from important episodes...and don't take away from new characters. The good thing about FTC is we will see more than just the big 7. Mattel stopped there, Neca and Hot Toys didn't even get past Batman and Robin. This is the only shot we got at seeing an almost complete 1966 Bat world. I doubt it will happen anywhere else.

Waiting to add the rest of the villains to my collection, here's to hoping they will expand to include some henchmen or at least the suits to do some of them.

I can't give away all the exact details, but you can most likely Make space for a Batman in the future. I think your Riddler problem will be solved very soon as well. I'll pass on your comments as well.

FYI-All of the removable mask figures from the Batman 1966 series that are still yet to come were very very hard to do. Just think about Batmans mask alone.

Is removable cowl Batman still coming? Julie and Eartha need the masks removable, or make two heads each. I just want them to have the mask. The Mattel Catwoman felt so incomplete without her mask. How she gonna go commit crimes without it on? She never was seen in public unmasked. I also would love Riddler in jumpsuit with a removable mask so I can pose one with the mask hanging around his neck. IMO, there are still two much needed Riddler figures still to do. Removable mask jumpsuit, and jacket and hat version. Both of these figures could use the same head. Is Lee's version of Catwoman in the cards? Miss Kitka? What about Mr. Freeze? Is only Otto's likeness allowed to be used? I would love George as well because the outfit was so odd looking and unusual. In reality though Freeze always had the helmet in the comics.i just ordered the variant set on EE. I only really desire the Joker, Penguin and Alfred, but maybe Bruce and Dick will grow on me, as the other versions have. Toycade...ask Figures for a Vote for Penguin exclusive please. We need both.

Glad to hear something about Batgirl et al. We've had exactly squat in the way of prototypes, pics or even drawings!

I am SO looking forward to the new female bodies; God only knows that Mego never got the body right.

I am still looking forward to the new female body that Doc has been working on, even if we have to wait for it.

Friday can't come soon enough for me.

wait? what??? the 66 batman batgirl and catwoman will use a NEW body????????

I will buy multiples of each Catwoman & Batgirl IF they are rooted hair & IF the Catwoman figures have included removable masks their first release.

I don't think it's that hard to make the masks removable; I think, at least from the way the mask flew off in the '66 movie, that it was more like a pair of glasses in construction than a wrap around mask like Robin's. At the very least, I think such an approach would work here if they have rooted hair.

mickeymoosemego your posts are really appreciated. Thanks for your comments about the upcoming ladies in the Batman 66 line. Can't wait to see them.

You can tell some of us are really passionate that the female figures start getting done right in the 8" scale. It has been a LONG time coming.

Mego rarely seemed to get the female figures right. They always seemed to be more throw away figures compared to the male figures.

That is definitely a trend that I want to see end with FTC. They have the skill. Impress us!

My daughter has Barbies of Black Canary and Wonder Woman and the rooted hair on these and the Tonner dolls works great compared to the painted on hair on the
the big DC DIRECT Wonder Woman and Black Canary dolls that looked horrible.

FTC: IF the 1966 Catwoman (Julie & Eartha) & BATGIRL do NOT have rooted hair, it's a complete deal breaker for me. You want molded hair, go to Mattel's Batman 66 line! MEGO females NEED rooted hair if it's long, we'll figure out how to make it nice....BUT it needs to be rooted & CLEAR Headbands as your female DC figures look horrible when the hair isn't maintained in a clear band like MEGO did!

So FTC:

1.) 66 Batgirl & Catwoman (Eartha & Newmar) NEED rooted hair.
2.) Barbara Gordon can have molded if you'd like (like BIG head prototype Jayna)
3.) 66 females NEED NECKS
4.) Include removable masks with all CATWOMAN figures.....DO NOT make us buy variants to get their masks....That's a blatant RIP OFF!

I will buy multiples of each Catwoman & Batgirl IF they are rooted hair & IF the Catwoman figures have included removable masks their first release.

I WILL Quit this line if they lose the MEGO look having molded hair, & REFUSE to PAY for variants of Cawomen figures to get their masks like you did with that 66 Movie "Masked variant" rip off Penguin! *Penguin didn't need a RM in his intial release, but CATWOMAN does need Removable Masks 1st release! Don't think we're ripe for the picking anymore. DO THIS RIGHT FTC & you get my $$$ & plenty of it! Try to take me for a ride with these future 66 figures (& all DC) & I'll jump from the moving car & spend more thousand with Mattel instead of you guys. Sorry to be strong handed, but to her people on here (NOT talking sbout the E-tailers, talking above poster) suggesting making Catwoman variants at higher prices to get their masks is RIDICULOUS! Nothing personal the poster, just disgusted by the thought of FTC thinking they should charge $35 for varaints of Catwoman (Newmar & Kitt so far) JUST to get her character essential removable masks is INSANITY & I don't want FTC getting any other BAD ideas.

LOL Invisiblelad...your lists of demands always read like ransom notes.

I'd say more rooted in Truth!
