DC Retro Catwoman, Penguin Boxing Batman and Riddler
I think the Mattel Burgess Meredith Penguin from like 7 years ago looked better, to be honest.
Ugh, wrong Catwoman. Guess I better get it anyway, in case they can't get the Julie Newmar rights.
Kind of like that they made an Eartha Kitt Catwoman. Hopefully Julie Newmarr one next.
Surprised they gave Batman and Riddler their boxing gloves considering they didn't give Surfing Batman his board!
Love the Ertha Kitt Catwoman, but starting with her instead of Julie Newmar is like going with John Astin before Frank Gorshin for the Riddler...
I'm actually pleased they are doing Eartha Kitt instead of Newmar since we already got Newmar in the Mattel line. Any NEW characters or variants in this line compared to Mattel is more than welcome, and finall with this wave McF is doing some stuff that Mattel hadn't already given us. I'm still hoping the line lasts long enough to get some other villains Mattel never did like King Tut, Egghead, and especially Mr. Freeze.
I think they even made two different Freezes.
I am surprised they are making more since Targets are FLOODED with everything from the previous two waves.
These things don't seem to move at all. Which is a shame because they look like perfect nostalgia bait for casual buyers.
Maybe they should be in the DC section instead of back in the "collectibles" section? Seems to work for the Retro Joes.

I've always had a crush on Julie Newmar's Catwoman and I was eager to replace the scrawny version Mattel released, so I won't lie in that I'm disappointed we are not getting her from McFarlane in this wave. I'm impatient. That being said, Eartha Kitt's Catwoman has never gotten a figure in this scale (to my knowledge), so it is a nice surprise to see her here. I just hope this line lasts long enough to produce the Julie Newmar version, too.
Not 66 related, but McFarlane related.
Does anyone know when or even IF BBTS will get the multiverse swampthing in stock? I've had it on pre-order since before December.

BBTS is usually among the last to get inventory.
