Wave 6
1 catwoman (newmar)
2 com gordon ?
3
4

Wave 7
1 catwoman (kitt)
2 riddler version 2 ?

4
That still leaves a few gaps to fill! Hhmmm

As they use to say in old Trucker Movies-That's a negatory good buddy!

I am not sure they have the likeness rights for Gordon. This is why I am skipping O'Hara, I don't need him if I won't ever get Gordon. I do think Clock King is very likely as in the '66 comic it looks just like the actor. I do hope we see him, but False Face is my biggest want after the three Catwomen and Riddler in jacket/hat. Olga, Siren and Louie The Lilac too. So far we have no villains from season 3 except Eartha. I do wish Lee as Catwoman could be done. Lee seems like she would say yes to them using her likeness if FTC asked her.

Both versions in the same wave NOT Likely! Both coming that's for sure.

sounds like Catwoman got bumped to carry wave 6...likely will see both versions (newmar and kitta) in that wave

Curious and anxious for wave 6. Two Catwomans maybe....still need Gordon......who's left? Clock King?

I do hope the belt sits lower on the actual figure. It should be across her hips. Her cape is also way too long. Batgirl always had a very short cape. I can't tell from the pic, but I don't even see the scallops.
I thought it was said Catwoman would also be out by Christmas? I guess that's no longer the case?

Also, the Barbara figure, the coat I know I saw on the show several times (though I recall it to be more orange than yellow) but I don't remember her ever wearing a blue skirt that looked denim? Anyone know which episode this design was from?

These are great for anyone who wants to continue buying this series or add a couple to their collection. FTC has done a fantastic job of bringing the 66 Batman series to our toy rooms. No one ever thought this was going to be a possibility.

Bittersweet timing but excited to see this line hit. It will make for a very cool tribute to Yvonne. I'm confident the production pieces will be quite nice. I don't place too much emphasis anymore on the fine details in a prototype. Those tend to work themselves out in production. As the Photo-shopped piece so nicely illustrates, the sculpts are much better once you fine tune the paint apps. It's been a great series.

ian, that was me. i enlarged the pic, then superimposed actual details of different pics of Yvonne's face, and lined the details up over the FTC-released pic.

Oops! Forgive me. I should have paid closer attention.

Exactly correct. And as well she asked for several changes to the figure along the way and they were happily made for her. The pictures don't do the figures justice. In person they look fine.

I added a hat to O'hara.... thinks it suits him better...

That looks so much better! "Saints alive!" ( I remember he used to say that, just like my old Irish relatves did too.)

[comicmike]

A little confused why they didn't use the same head sculpt (as a starting point) for both Babs and Batgirl. The picture looks like two different characters completely.

Agreed!

It's odd that when the photograph of the figures is enlarged, Batgirl's head in the only one that's in focus. It make me wonder if what we think we're seeing is actually that. To me, it looks like an actual image of Yvonne Craig as Batgirl superimposed onto the FTC Batgirl body with suit/costume. But, maybe it's just me.
