Mattel also showed off their flavor of the 1966 Batman series of figures at Toy Fair and they are really making a go at it. Going so far as to include Batman with swim trunks and a surfboard. Packaging samples were on hand as well.

That Penguin is awesome.
IF they don't find a way to make a Super Powers era Batmobile I will be very disappointed.
Where's the Cesar Romero Joker?
Ok the Penguin and Riddler look like Burgess Meridith and Frank Gorshen I'm impressed
I hope NECA or Mattel eventually does a Batman Returns action figure. That's the only Batman toy I've ever wanted in my whole life. C'mon, 26 years is long enough.
this line looks alot better then i expected i will no doubt pick these up
the wall climbing display is awesome lol
though does that TRU exclusive batmobile actually fit figures inside of it???
How do we know the Batmobile is a TRU exclusive? What is the price point on these things?
A surf board? Really?
And people actually want this ****?
And people actually want this ****?
Did they show which Catwoman? Julie, Ertha, or Lee?
We all know you don't want them Kain I do have to ask this if they do the TV series version of Mad Hatter (David Wayne) would you go for him or Just bypass hoping they do a Comic book version?
I would want Returns Bats, Penguin, penguins with missle packs, Pffeifer Catwoman and the BATMISSLE BATMOBILE! Oh god if Mattel makes a 6" scale 89 or Returns Batmobile...
TEARS. TEARS OF JOY...

They may not ever answer a question about it in Q&A, but hell that figure makes me happy.

No one's forcing you to buy it, and no one's forcing you to repeatedly come into this thread to bitch about it repeatedly. Between this and the one other thread about this line that was posted friday, you've made four or five posts just to come in and berate it.
Move on. I don't like Heman, but I don't pop into every single Heman thread and bitch about "Why are they making this s***???"
I don't like like Masked Rider, but I'm not popping into the figure arts thread to bitch about it.
You don't like it. Other people do. Deal with it and move on. No one makes you open threads about shit you hate.
EDIT:
And since you obviously haven't figured it out, the show these toys are based on was pretty much intended to be a comedy. And even more so, these toys are intended to reflect the lighthearted silliness that was in the show. They're ment to make people smile. Doesn't do that for you? I'm sorry. But let those who are enjoying it enjoy it.
I want that more than anything I can think of!
I want that more than anything I can think of!
These toys however, are freaking awesome and WILL be bought.
Awesome!!. Why the hell this batman got a cloth cape whilst the movie master tdk/tdkr don't have it
? lol.
@Dr Kain: Chill out man. It doesn't matter why people want this toy for, if you don't like it please stop bitching about it. Just go.
People forget that this show and the Green Hornet were on Back to back in the late 60's. My father used to watch it when he was a Kid, the show was designed to be a Kids show these action figures probably should have been made in the 1960's as opposed to 2013. On top of all this the entire villain cast is dying (or has died) off David Wayne, Frank Gorshen, Burgess Meredith, Milton Berle, Victor Buono, Vincent Price, Cesar Romero, Anne Baxter, Carolyn Jones, Roddy McDowall, George Sanders, Otto Preminger, Cliff Robertson, and Ertha Kitt have all passed away.. I Really hope the do Yvonne Craig Batgirl as a series 2 she loved Batgirl so much she complained about the Killing Joke
well that's all my money gone. because I want all of those. That wall climbing box is outstanding
Quite impressed with what I've seen so far, especially with Riddler and Penguin. If they announce a Cesar Romero Joker and Egghead Vincent Price, then I'm all-in.
Saw a youtube video of mattel's conference and Joker was confirmed, it'll even have the painted over moustache
I have faith in Mattel (at least regarding this line.) Sure, Robin could use some touch ups, and I'm none too excited that the Bat-mobile is going to be TRU exclusive (they must really like the 60's Bat-vehicles, having both the Bat-cycle and sidecar and the R/C Bat-mobile), but they seem to have a real passion for this line, as one would have to have to even consider making swim trunks Batman (which I will buy, 'cause it's awesome.) Plus, a building side playset ? With opening windows? That means you can stick the Breaking Bad figures in the back, and have them pop their heads out to sell Batman some meth!
Ok then Series 2 should do:
Yvonne Craig Batgirl
Vincent Price Egghead
Ertha Kitt Catwoman
Victor Buono King Tut
Van Williams Green Hornet *
Bruce Lee Kato *
Batgirls Motorcycle or the Cat Car
* Cross Over and would be totally Sweet
