Earlier today I showed off the upcoming Mattel 1966 Batman Movie Masters Penguin and Riddler 6″ figures. Now, thanks to USAToday and Toy News International, we have a look at the 6″ Adam West Batman figure and the 6″ 1966 Batmobile vehicle! The 6″ figures will be sold for $15.99 apiece, and the Batmobile will be $49.99.
Continue after the jump for the full pics.
OK, the scale Batmobile is AWESOME. That Adam West has a ton of unique parts, it looks like, but I don’t know that it is shown in its most flattering pose. I do love the head sculpt, though.
Yeah I’m loving the sculpts on these.
The big question is if Batman and Robin can’t fit in the Batmobile, why make it?
They will be able to. That’s why that Batman has a cloth cape. 🙂
batman and Robin WILL be able to fit. There just isn’t a side by side pic yet. I love the attention to detail though, and they even captured Adam West’s paunch and oddly feminine legs!
I am jumping for joy that these are being made… I’ve only waited about 47 years! Hopefully, the cape will be better made (perhaps not such a stiff cloth and sewn to properly fit). Now give me a George Reeves/Superman and Lynda Carter/Wonder Woman to visit Gotham. And on the subject of classic TV Land heroes, how about a Jackson Bostwick/Shazam; Van Williams/Green Hornet; Bruce Lee/Kato; Clayton Moore/Lone Ranger; Jay Silverheels/Tonto; Ron Ely/Tarzan, Lou Ferrigno/Hulk, Nicholas Hammond/Spider-man, John Wesley Shipp/Flash, etc….
Oh man, that would be something! Perhaps too ambitious right now, but that would be cool. I hope the cape ends up looking better too, but I do like the forethought into giving him a cloth cape so he can sit in the Batmobile.
