Well, the final property I've been waiting to get figures for my whole life is almost upon us. Loving the images coming out of Toy Fair the past couple of days. I think I may even get the Batman w/ Surf Short. lol
Another highlight is that I read today that the Joker figure will have the badly painted mustache as part of the head sculpt!! Niiiice.
I really hope Batgirl eventually comes out and keeps that sparkly outfit. It would make a nice boxset with her motorcycle.
So far I only have 2 real annoyances with the line...
1) They're saying Robin will not be produced on a card by himself. You can ONLY get him via the "walking up the wall" 2-pack w/ Batman.
Are they for real!? ROBIN?!? ARGH
The only bright point is that maybe the Batman in there is the same as the stand-alone pack. But I know that won't be true. Either the figure will be the same, but cool accessories in the blister won't be included, or it'll be different enough where you'll want to get the blister.
UPDATE - Ok, I just read on MattyCollector that the 2-pack can be mounted to the wall. If the figures are guaranteed to stay put....I will have to have this.
Regardless I'm likely getting a blister one anyway and hope I can get Adam West to sign it. Since I already have Burt Ward's signature on a Super Powers Robin, I'm not too pissed about the lack of blister release.
2)The size of the figures...what the hell are they? I'm hearing 3.75", 6", and slightly sub-6" scale. I wish I knew for sure.
UPDATE - MattyCollector confirms it is 6" scale. Nice.
Oh and one other bonus...price! They say $16 a pop and that it'll hit retail and not be MattyCollector only.
Now here's hoping the line goes on long enough to get King Tut and a Running w/ Bomb Batman
