Re: TO THE BATPOLES #205: Batman - Star Trek ACT-OFF, pt. 2

The assault Rand’s character endured in Enemy was extremely daring for 60’s audiences at that time and is really an uncomfortable moment in this series. You take a causal viewer who only knows Star Trek from The Trouble with Tribbles and show them that scene and you’ll certainly get a reaction out ...

Re: Suspenders swatch allegedly owned by Bruce Lee and worn as part of Kato’s chauffeur’s uniform for sale on eBay

As much as I love TGH TV series and collect certain kinds of merchandise based on it, I could not imagine paying for a screen-used swatch from Lee's suspenders. That's getting kind of strange.

Re: 1/6 Joker, 1966 , 4 options By Mars Toys

I asked which pseudonym they will use for this figure. The Joker was Prankster. What is the Riddler’s pseudonym? Our pal Troy nailed this exact conundrum when we were chatting about these Mars figures... it's got to be "Prank Gorshin" :lol: Not sure Mars would use "Gorshin", but...

Re: Flash movie cuts Joker and Penguin

The Flash suffered from the changing guard at Warner Brothers, as so many of the cuts and re-shoots occured not as a result of Zaslav's direct order, but in part, due to incoming "DCU" head James Gunn's conscious tinkering with the film to support his alleged "new universe" whic...

Re: TO THE BATPOLES #204: “Rembrandt III”: Watching paint dry

Actually what killed the series was the fad ran it's course, as all fads do. Even if the scripts had retained the tone a quality of the first season, I don't think it would've mattered. The curiosity of the adults had waned (no pun intended) and that was almost all she wrote. Indeed-- Batman was a ...

Re: Jazzinc 1/6 Batcycle open for orders June 9 at Noon EDT

Yep, this is almost the same cost as the more iconic Batmobile was, and that had quite a few features. For me, it’s an easy decision to sit this one out. But it’s going to be fun to see this made and in people’s collections. Personally, I've always preferred the original Batcycle from season 1 to t...

Re: Black Beauty chrome hood ornament question

Already answered on the FB page. BB1-vs BB2 had differences. BB2 had an extra chrome metal hood detail piece installed on the hood front, BB1 it was just silver paint. And BB-vs-Batmobile Batman/Robin vs Green Hornet/Kato "accident" photos were pre-production BB1 and not the way it looked...

Re: McFarlane Toys doing Batman 66 figures?

Catmobile. Hmm. That seems like a stretch, not to mention obtaining the right to use Gene Winfield's Reactor (the season 3 "Catmobile" minus the garish "cat" add-ons) as the base of the vehicle. Eaglemoss did a licensed model of the Eartha Kitt Kitty Car. Very cool! I forgot abo...

Re: JazzInc may reissue 1966 Batmobile

If people thought the 1/6 scale Batmobile was expensive before, just imagine the cost with two figures included. Yikes!

Re: McFarlane Toys doing Batman 66 figures?

The Green Hornet & Kato are not the IPs of DC/WB. Unless McFarlane Toys produces characters from non-DC properties, I'd doubt they would ever make GH & K figures. This is an interesting point that I would have instinctively agreed with BWH on until recently. Our friends at FanSets released ...
