New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant

As much as I like the graphics and new accessories, this odd combination of the TV Batman with Silver Age comic book blue is a pass for me. I was hoping to see a new character unveiled.Picture credit to the sideshowcollectors.com message board.

Not crazy about it, but heck I can't afford the first one.

Re: New Hot Toys Batman Repaint
What were they thinking? That blue is too bright. Looks like a new sculpt. The ears look straighter.
Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
I have the first one. Its perfect. This one looks awful. That blue just ain't right! Don't fix what doesn't need fixing!
Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
Horrible. Should have made a new '66 character like Joker or Batgirl. I do like the Batphone though, would have liked to have had included in the first one.
Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
I agree with you guys. I saw the pics on Facebook and I´m not a fan of the bright blue colors. I own the first one and it´s fine that way. Don´t know if it´d be on a bigger scale than the previous one, but it has the same items except the cardboard background and the Batphone.

I think it's their take on the Infantino Batman from the 1960's.
Some days you just can't get rid of a ... SHARK!
Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
Looks more like the Superfriends version. I still want that Batphone. Will have to scour the net once someone buys one and breaks it up.

I love the mega-phone he is holding too from the Joker Goes to School Episode!

Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
I'd like to say the blue isn't as bright in person, but it is. It grew on me the more I walked by it, but then I'm a fan of the comics of the era as I am the show. Looks like the same sculpt to me. Ears are still flopsy mopsy.
Heard some bad news regarding the Batmobile-- although I heard it from a Sideshow rep not hot-toys themselves. Rolling wheel issue appears to hard to overcome. I'm told it's not coming out.

Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
This is hands down the most left-field product variant we've seen since the merchandise licensing became available.

Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
There's been some suggestion that the coloring of this 'variant' might anticipate the forthcoming '66 Batman animated film - but I tend to think that's a tenuous justification at best.
Is anyone here tempted?

Re: New Hot Toys 66 Batman Variant
I figured it may be a ToyFair exclusive (I bought the evil superman III in the past and it was just a new suit and base) but itt looks like a full release. I can't understand why they didn't produce a pink cowl variant or at least give us shorts and a board.
I wish they would release the Batmobile, they can lock the wheels for all I care, it would sit in a glass tank with my figures anyway.
