      Maybe it's a new $80 Catwoman!

        Nobody else is making Tut, Egghead, Shame or Bookworm, let alone the supporting cast so i consider this a very whole-hearted effort.
        It seems they have a "whole-hearted" approach to much of what they do.
        That's cool. I heard one of the FTC guys mention this very mindset on your (or someone else's) podcast.

        But, I'll pull my hair out if their whole-hearted approach ever renders a scenario akin to Egghead being a go while not eeking out a Commissioner Gordon.

        Saying that, it does appear Gordon will likely follow the less "name-value" and already shown O'Hara----but, I was just using that "Gordon" thing as an example, since we're in the '66 context already.

        I suppose name value of the character is the main factor on success of the character---followed by the actual product's production rendering---and how they can manipulate manufacturing bulk low run deals too. It stinks that in such a high-tech world we're still feeling the sting of plastic prices that haven't really benefited from tech advances.

                At least we know who it's not. It's a start I suppose.

                  at least make all the components for the recurring goons like Joker's, Penguin's and Catwoman's.

                    Penguin goons would be very easy for FTC to do, body with black or flesh color hands, black shirts, black pants,
                    black shoes, black derby hats, I believe FTC already have all those items, the only extra would be to have the word
                    Goon on there shirts.

                    Catwoman not very difficult either, black pants and shoes, tiger stripe shirts, and those Mouseketeer ears,
                    that's of course if they ever come out with 66 series Catwoman.

                    Louie the Lilac goons would be pretty easy too, just three piece black striped suits with neckties,
                    which FTC currently sells.

                      Has anyone suggested a Green Hornet and Kato yet, or have they already been made?

                        pretty sure they can't be made under this license.

                          Let's be glad that it isn't. Because, given the quality of the sculpts, I think that GH and Kato would probably tank.

                          You'd need a much better sculptor to really capture the likeness of Bruce Lee and Van Williams.

                            they would do great, first ever mego scale GH and Kato. The rights holders for Green Hornet are the problem. Bruce Lee's estate has allowed his image to be used all over the place. Guessing Van Williams would jump at the chance to trade on his likeness a bit. I see most of the 66 figures having decent likenesses, Bruce Dick and Batgirl are off, Gorshin looks decent from some angles. Joker, Hatter, Freeze, Egghead, Shame,Penguin, Alfred and Tut all do decent jobs in that department, so more hits than misses. I am undecided on Bookworm.

                              I wonder if they could get the license for the comic book licenses and just make them look more that way than the live action versions. And then not "officially" link them to the 66 series.

                                I realize I'm probably way off with this guess but I'm thinking the all-new, not to be released in a regular wave exclusive could be Zelda the Great. Anne Baxter who first appeared as Zelda on the show also played Olga, Queen of the Cossacks in later episodes so FTC could keep Zelda as only an exclusive and still reuse the sculpt by giving us Olga in a regular wave. Olga'a a figure I really hope we get and if we get Zelda as well I'd definitely pick her up. I'm glad we're getting at least 2 Catwoman figures but I don't want them to be the only villainesses in the line. FTC please give us Siren, Black Widow, Ma Parker and Marsha, Queen of Diamonds along with a Lee Meriwether Catwoman.
