BATMAN discussion

Robin

I always liked the Earth-2 Robin's costume:



Of course, that costume was officially ret-conned out of existence over 20 years ago, along with the Earth-2 (and others) concept, thanks to "Crisis On Infinite Earths" (though they keep sneaking aspects of it back into the DCU) !
I remember trying to approximate this costume with my Megos as a lad: I'd use Captain Marvel's bodysuit under Robin's costume, which gave him red leggings rather than yellow, and green upper arms. I always wished I'd had a Green Arrow so I could have used his boots, rather than the slippers!

Of course, that's the ONLY Robin outfit Dick Grayson ever wore (well, except maybe an odd variant here or there), so unless they do a figure of Timothy Drake, that's the suit we'll get.

Well, since this new line will be "MEGO friendly", the first Robin will be in his classic outfit for sure. However you have a good idea. Jason or Tim? "The Red Robin".

Older is good but the green butt huggers have got to go!

That's is what I hope (and pray!) that the new Robin figure will look like. An older Dick Grayson sculpt with the removable mask!

When was the last Robin merchandise out when we was in green underwear?

This came out a couple years ago:

I believe this set came out about 6-8 years ago!

I think it is safe to say the RC Batman is a toy icon even beyond superhero and mego toy fans.

I am hoping we still get 2 batman figures 1 of them RC.

Also does anyone get the feel the robin will be modernized?

I was looking on one of the Hasbro 9 inch Batmans the other day, and I
noticed that the cape was actually longer than the figure.

The 9" modern Batman that came with the Bruce Wayne head and tux had a nice cape. You could even pull it around, place it in his hand, and do the famous "Dracula-type" pose, with the cape over his face.

A longer cape would be nice! And wider, so it could come around the shoulders some.

Not just a longer cape, but also with more volume.

I wouldn't mind a longer cape on the new Batman

Thats a good idea!

I'd really really really like to see a floor length cape for the caped crusader!!!!!
