Penguin, Catwoman, Boxer Batman and Boxer Riddler have been announced on Facebook as being made for this line as well. The Boxer figures may be chase figures for wave 2, not sure. I'm guessing Pengy and Catwoman will be in wave 3. Still hoping for a pink cowl Batman with all these variants coming out. No word on a Batgirl yet, but I'm more interested in King Tut, Egghead and Mr. Freeze getting made.

They're $17.99 in my local Targets. Picked up the 3 regular figs, still looking for the 2 variants.

Joker is great- much better than the Mattel version.

The review successfully makes the case the McFarlane figures are generally better but they need the Mattel Batmobile

I know I for sure love these McFarland figures way more than I do the Mattel ones. The only thing is they go better with the Mattel Batmobile. Also, the accessories that are out there for the Mattel figures fit well with these McFarlane ones too.

Very easy to do
Just pop off and a touch of glue

I think you have to pop his head off as the cape hole is tight and doesn't stretch over the head.

The head pops off as does the neck part of the bib, well the neck part IS glued with a very small amount, I just wiggled it a bit , and I will adjust the cape to look better

There hasn’t been a perfect ‘66 figure line yet and judging from my purchase of Batman today, this definitely isn’t it. It’s a fun figure, but I hate the indecision between articulation here. Either go all the way so that they’re extremely poseable or go retro with just a few points of articulation. They’re trying to reach some middle ground here and it doesn’t work. I can’t get him to stand without bending his torso so far back that it looks awkward.

I’ll pick up what I run into, but I’m not going to go crazy getting them all.
