I have been working on making custom villains & variants to go along with the Batman 66 Mattel Line. I started this thread because I thought some of you board members might enjoy seeing them. Let me know what you think!

I like what you've done. Can you also include a comment on the source figure, that is the figure you used as a base to create the model.
Looks like figures from the animated series?

I'm looking at Surfer Batman to create Boxing Batman. Still noodling around about the boxing gloves

I really like your Eli and John Astin. They are spot on. I continue to be amazed at how talented nonprofessional customizers can be. Remarkable.

Nice job dude!

I'm afraid this line is probably over with only Batgirl being revealed at SDCC. A complete, or near-complete 60s Rogues Gallery would've been amazing.

Sorry havent been on the forum in a few days so I am just now seeing your comment. Thanks I'm glad you like them.
Egghead is a marvel legends Professor X, i switched the jacket with an extra cesar romero joker tux & I sculpted onto it a little to make it have the shape of eggheads tux.

Mr. Freeze is a marvel legends Magneto but i did a lot of sculpting. I sculpted the hair,his face, the neck piece & ring.

John Astin Riddler is just a Frank Gorshin Riddler with sculpted hair & face & i painted on the mustache.

Thanks so much to everyone for all the kind words. Im glad you guys like them. I will post more pics as I get finished with each figure.

Thanks for the detail. I had not considered using one riddler to create the second riddler. I can't wait to see your boxing Batman

Great job! Love the Egghead, Freeze & Mad Hatter. I had the same thought about making an Astin Riddler. I'd like to make a surfing Joker too... I could swear I saw a prototype of that somewhere but I guess it never got released.
And why doesn't Batman dance anymore? Remember the Batusi?
