[mikey1974]

well,since the Nolan Trilogy is now history,Mattel is moving on to NEW Movie Masters - this time from the 1966 Adam West/Burt Wars TV Series!

the first series was shown at Toy Fair this past weekend (as well as a hint of Series 2)...so,onto the pics and discussion!

ill deffinitly be pre ordering these as soon as their available. Look awesome

 

[BlueLightning]

We need some Romero' Joker and Surfing Romeo's Joker!

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

Batmobile looks awesome!

will be available through Matty Collector only or will it be available at Toys R Us as well?

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

I'll be buying all of the figures and most likely the batmobile for certain.

 

[Gee]

Batmobile looks awesome!

will be available through Matty Collector only or will it be available at Toys R Us as well?

TRU and some online retailers.

 

[dru-zod2501]

Picking them all up for sure!

 

[ManInTheNarrows]

Yup........I'll be giving Mattel more of my money lol. These just look great.

I am a little peeved however that Mattel can make a Movie Master 66' Batmobile but never made the tumbler. Grinds my gears.

Can't wait to see the Caesar Romero Joker!!!

 

[VictoriaR85]

Must. Have. ALL of these! There are so many possible character choices to make figures off. I can't wait for Joker and Catwoman!

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

TRU and some online retailers.

thank God! i hate buying off Matty Collector

the lineup's so far:

Series 1:

Batman
Riddler
Penguin
Surfing Batman

"Heroes of Gotham" 2-pack with Batman and EXCLUSIVE to this set Robin

Series 2:

Joker
Catwoman
????????
????????


now,i'm going to go out on not too much of a limb here and say one of those last 2 will be surfing Joker. but NO idea who the last one will be. they have all likeness rights,so it could be anyone. another villain like Mr. Freeze?perhaps Egghead or King Tut,2 of the other higher profile villains? perhaps a secondary character like Alfred or Gordon? maybe even BATGIRL??!!!

though I would think,since they're making vehicles,they'd keepBatgirlas an exclusive that comes with her Batcycle.

Ill go nuts if they make a Yvonne Craig Batgirl figure, that would be amazing.

 

[Gee]

Ill go nuts if they make a Yvonne Craig Batgirl figure, that would be amazing.

Ditto.

 

[Bad Superman]

If only things got sorted out for the series DVD release. . . .

 

[thephoenix101]

o mattel you try so hard but **** you they never made batgirl (yvonne craig) i hope they go for a wave 2

 

[thephoenix101]

ik i want them to so bad other whys ill have to make 1 i guess with thier catwoman body and maybe a legacy head

 

[thephoenix101]

catwoman and joker are part of wave 1 im pretty sure cuz along with the rest of wave 1 they are written on the back of the box

 

[The Joker]

Ill go nuts if they make a Yvonne Craig Batgirl figure, that would be amazing.

I'd say she's guaranteed. She was a main hero character on the show.

 

[thephoenix101]

joker is written on the back of the box so my guess is he will be in wave 1 and hopefully we will see wave 2 with batgirl

 

[thephoenix101]

hope so

 

[thephoenix101]

catwoman and joker

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

definitely getting the Batmobile and Batman figure to go with it

 

[theman]

this is bugging me. WHY are they making figures from the 60s show but NOT from the other live action films? wheres the keaton batman and nicholson joker? wheres catwoman and devito penguin? jim vcarrey riddler?? mattel, we NEED THESE.

however the 60s figs do indeed look awsome!

 

[dru-zod2501]

I stopped picking up 6 inch scale figures a long time ago, but I gotta pick these up ASAP! In duplicate: 1 to keep mint, 1 for free play (Yeah, I still play with my figures; what of it?)

I agree its bugging me as well. The thing that really really grinds my gears is that Mattel is producing a Movie Master scale 1966 Batmobile that will retail for $49.99. However they could never muster up a Tumbler for our movie masters The Dark Knight line. Guess i should be happy we got a MM Bat-Pod.
