Every time I see that Batcave i am reminded of this

If you look it really does look like a retool of the batcave.....I own the Playset (the Army one) it is pretty simular

^ I did see that. It’s terrific! I love the charm and simplicity of the Mego 3 3/4 inch version, They both have their place. Yours is almost unbelievable; it’s so good.

Check out my thread The Batcave under Microverse to see what I did with the large FTC reprocave, if you haven't already. Playmobil also has some good playsets for this scale.

I'm really anticipating these, much more so than any other FTC release. I'm rooting for Comic Action Heroes in Pocket Hero form. Really hope they don't disappoint.

Wow...the sight of that Pocket Heroes Batcave is beautiful. I can imagine the vehicles and playsets. They might have a big hit on their hands, if the quality is there.

Please do a great job with these, FTC!

I'm missing the Batman from both Comic Action and Pocket Heroes, so I might pick up those if the repros were faithful. Depending on price point, though, I may just stick to the vintage in this line.

Now if they did the Batcave from Pocket Heroes, that's another story. I'd be all over an affordable exact replica of that one.

I wonder if any new villains will be added? I would really love to see The Riddler

What I would like to see FTC. do is the Elastic Superheroes...thing is the one I want the most is a Hulk. Plasticman would still be nice though.

I may be in a class by myself when I say this, but if this Comic Action Heroes repro set is successful and FTC makes more DC characters in this mold, I am hoping a future prospect will be the Super Friends characters. As a kid, I had both the Comic Action and Pocket versions of Superman, Batman, Robin, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman. But I was bummed out that Mego never made the
Wonder Twins in those figure forms. I would pay most handsomely for Zan and Jayna in Comic Action or Pocket form. Also, Black Vulcan, Samurai, Apache Chief and El Dorado. And of course, other DC favorites like the Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkman, Green Arrow, Plastic Man and etc. It would also be awesome to have the Legion of Doom in Comic Action or Pocket form as well. Anyway, that's what I'm saying.

Super 7. They parted ways. The boss man at Super 7 has been ducking questions about it lately. Does not look good.


CCC.

Sorry, but thats not correct. Funko made them after the split with Super 7, and if you go back and look at the packaging they only say Funko on them. The rumors have been that Super 7 picked up wave 2 which is why their boss man has been mum about either from fatigue or secrecy who is to say.

Either way, I just want wave 2 from whomever as long as the quality is there.

[LordMudd]

The Funko Batman 66 wave 2 was rumored to be with a different company than Funko. I would be thrilled if thats what we are getting, especially if they are compatible with wave 1 and expand to things like Superman TMP.

I don't know how I feel about this.
On the one hand, it would be cool to see a new 3.75 inch DC line with a classic look.
I had Zod and Luthor, so it would be fun to have them again.

But on the other hand, I feel like these figures are going to be too expensive for me to want to purchase.
I passed on the Arrow figures by ReAction/Funko or whoever made those... even though that was like my favorite show at the time.
I just couldn't justify paying the price point for such a little figure...
Like how expensive is a 4 inch Star Wars or GI Joe figure these days?
And those are sold in mass market stores!
Not specialty items you have to order and no free shipping unless you spend $100!

Will still be excited to see pictures of what they do though!

Star Wars is $7.99 - $13.99 GI Joe was about $9.99 when the last singles were available.

I just got the original CAH Batman Last week! I really need to track down a classic Shazam from that line and i have the entire DC set. (Actually i'm hunting all sorts of Shazams since the trailer came out)
I'm happy that FTC is doing these but I'm hoping they go beyond reproducing the classic line and give us characters we never got in the 70s
Specifically, I really want a Comic Action Hero/Pocket Hero style figure of Jay Garrick Flash. When Toy Biz released their short-lived DC comics Heroes line, they acknowledged the fact that the Flash was Wally West instead of Barry Allen. I had already had teh super powers Barry Allen/Flash figure so having the two together side by side was cool. when I saw a couple of Mego 3 3/4" figures at a con around that time it really made me wish Mego had done a Jay Garrick so that we would have had a natural progression from Mego Jay to Kenner Barry to Toy Biz Wally.
