    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.

        I also agree that the gals should all have rooted hair,if its long .The Superfriends is another thing-and thats to keep the animated look
        like Bif bang pows Venture bros figures .Molded hair would look awful on the retro gals in DC & 66 lines ,like the girls from BBPs Lost,and
        the Dr who Leela figure (which looked bad).Just as the new diamond /Emce "new" modern Thor will look bad (my opinion only) Its just
        that mego look ,that i want, with these.

            I can tell you they look great and the way they should. Rest easy, little details are being worked out.

              Is this hint "ROOTED" in truth? Or are you trying to MOLD our perceptions on the 66 Females?????

              As always, Thanks mickeymoose 4 some hope! Hope the heads on the 66 females do not provide any "BIG" complaints or OVERSIZED dramatic rants! (Ok, are the heads too big?)

                I'd say more rooted in Truth!

                      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.

                        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!

                          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.

                              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.
