I find that some companies batch print shipping labels anticipating the arrival of merch. That may explain it. I have a UPS item in Limbo from Dec 30, 2021. Good luck, it will arrive .... eventually.

I got mine today. The Batcave when put together is huge 25”x15”.
The Batmobile is awesome. When it drives the fire in back spins. I think the pop out saw blade is great. I’d say this is the most play friendly Batmobile since the Super Powers 1984 Batmobile.

As for the figures, all look awesome. Riddler has the question mark on both hats (whereas in prototype pics the question mark was missing) they all have perfect paint and look light years ahead of Funko. My only complaint is Alfred’s hair is too dark. The heads pop on and off easy. Joker’s belt is hard to get on over his hips. I had to put the belt in boiling water a few mins to soften it up so it would slide on. Finally, these are perfect scale to the McFarlane Batcave. I mean really it’s like that Batcave was made for these figures. I do wish Batgirl was included, but it seems like her license may have expired because no Batgirl since late 2019. Perhaps Yvonne only did a 5 year contract?

Thanks for the review, Rick!

Would you be able to show us some photos of the figures and car with the McFarlane cave? Really excited at the prospect of that combo.

Great review, Rick. Please pardon, but are you in the U.S.? What company did you get yours from?

I received mine today. I live in the Twin Cities area. I ordered it from Mezco directly on 10-07-2020, was emailed on 01-09-2022 that it was being shipped, and on 01-14-2022 it arrived. I have taken it out of the shipping package that it came in to inspect, but I have not yet fully opened it. It is awesome!

In Full Editor, at the bottom of it, you'll see a tab marked "Attachments."

I tried to post pics here but it said file too big. I added several photos on Facebook to 3 different Bat pages. Batman 1966, Batman Collectors club and Batman 1966-1968 fan club group.

I received an email informing me that my parcel is arriving on 25th January. Here in Australia.

Kind of neat how it's set up like the old Mego Batcave playset.
