66 Batman with removable cowl

[Earth 2 Chris]

It's very Mego-y. I'm s sucker for a removable cowl Batman in any line.

Just to put it in perspective... I can see that the cowl is big, but in the real world Adam West's hair and ears flatten to get a tight fit. On an action figure, its hair and ears stay the same. By nature the cowl would have some size issues. For the overall look, I am happy to see this.

Another perspective, I showed this to my 10 year old son, who is much more into Lego these days than Megos, saw this and was asking me when it was available, when could we get one, and then reminded me that we haven't played with his Megos for awhile and could we do so instead of going to bed.

As a collector, sometimes things cannot look right, but it is nice to see just play value in a toy.

Not bad, but Batgirl AND Chief O'Hara in time for Christmas! WOO!

I was lucky enough to see the O'Hara pictures - He looks great!

Would have made a great exclusive on his own.

the head looks huge, if i get it he's never going to wear it, hope FTC does shrink it a little

There were a couple of episodes where Alfred had to step in as Batman. I wonder if the cowl will fit on the Alfred noggin?

Very well stated. I think that in order to achieve a tighter fit FTC would have to make the Adam West head in two pieces. One would be the balded head and the other would be its hair (and maybe even ears). You can place the smaller/tighter cowl just over the balded head when displaying Batman and the two pieces head when displaying Bruce.

Having said that, I really think that their prototype looks good with the current constraints...

I decided to make my own RC TV Batman and happy with it:

It's filling up for FTC's until it gets released.

While I have no interest in this RC Batman 66, I can see the appeal. As big as that cowl looks, for many, the play-value is just right.

Even though I still don't like the RC Wolverine (for many reasons), I find this Batman figure has far more going for it.

This is what happens when you get it right. Great job FTC. Those that want a RC Batman 66, will be happy. Those who don't, wouldn't buy it anyway.

I's hates you.

I am just relieved FTC confirmed on Facebook that BATGIRL is in Wave 5 along w/ RC Batman and O'Hara! Now Newmar Catwoman please! Then Barbara and Commissioner Gordon! Where's he?

I like this figure ,this line is a lot of fun oh yeah the batgirl news is great also .

[RCB Mego]

I will definitely purchase this figure when available, my favorite has always been the Mego Removable Cowl Batman, it was my first Mego in 1973, and I loved the Batman 1966 TV show that played in reruns a lot during that time. I just received my first Figures Toy Company figure - the 1966 Removable Mask Robin and I am very satisfied. Thank you
