    Perfect!

    The proper green mask would be a welcome touch as well.

    Of course, I REALLY like the newer red and black costume alot as well so 2 versions would be nice but if they only made tis one, I would be a seriously happy camper!

    First...as mentioned before(by Paul himself)Robin wasn't a little Kid anymore...he was in College in the 70's...so *** was Mego thinking?

    Also mentioned...Garcia Lo'pez style works quite well with 70's Mego.

    This Pic, is actually a Neal Adams/Dick Giordana Collaboration. I think Giordana is another great choice for 70's Megoesque.

      I hated this figure when I was little so didn't buy it. Bonehead. It's a grail item for me now! lol..

        I wouldn't mind a Titans size Robin, but you can't beat the classic either

          Also, the shirt and shorts should be one piece with the red vest going over top like George Perez drew i in the Teen Titans comics. I made my custom Titan sized Robin's outfit this way and I love it!

                Too many people here with the right idea's to quote, so just my little run down.

                Make 8" Robin in the older side parted hair with green mask looking about 18.

                then later make the Teen Titan sized Robin with spit curls for the fans who've waited 30 years for that version.

                However i want to see the titans in 8" size for The New Teen Titans!

                and when we get to Goldenage /Earth 2 characters give Chris his E/2 adult robin.

                Let's make everyone HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                  I like the Garcia Lo'pez version only give him some green pants/tights!!!
                  I mean he is fighting crime for crying out loud the dude needs pants.

                    I don't really care what the new Robin will look like, I'm buying it either way, but I can certainly live with Chris's suggestion

                      I really can't make that statement, without seeing it first...but judging by what they've shown so far...I don't think we have anything worry about, the Head Sculpts are EXCELLENT!

                        You know, I like the way you think.

                        Put him up on Matty Collector. That'd be a great place for the more "out there" characters.

                          I'm hoping for the older Robin with a removable mask! Does anyone else think the mask will be seperate or painted on?

                            My guess is painted on. I'd be real surprised if it wasn't. I'd like to see sculpted on like Green Lantern. I think that would look good.

                              I hoping for Sculpted on...Removable Masks never look right. They always look too big.

                                I would love to see the grown up DG robin look of E2 (especially since it was featured in B & B) but that is just me and the other e2 fans

                                I think they need to do robin as either the Teen wonder Spuerfriends/ Super powers style (adult body, princeton haricut and short pants with crisp angled cheekbones) or the Tim drake since he has been robin for like 20 years and that look was aslo used to the TIMM animation.
                                I really don't want to see a 7' scale robin a al the filmation show at this point
