Re: NECA 66 Batcuffs, radio and batgirl radio

I opened my new toys. First thought is how happy I am to get new 66 props in 2023! They are all pretty sharp too. With that said, the price of 30 to 35$ each is pretty steep for what they are to the average toy collector out there but well worth that price to 66 collectors. Not sure how well they will sell to the average person.

The Batgirl Walkie-talkie is my favorite and feels the most substantial. I have a real Walkie-talkie and plan on doing a side by side comparison but it looks to be great. The Bat radio seems a little small. The antennas are kinda flimsy and mine don't stay up real well. The button pushes on a light that is cool but it's also super bright.
The radio looks the part much better than the more expensive ones out there so I'm happy. I also really like the satin appearance on them all. The cuffs are good and even fit my large wrists but I do wish the chain felt heavier. It appears to be plastic.

I'm happy with them. Thanks Santa!

Here are my attempts to make Batgirl walkie talkies from vintage sets, minus the lace trim. I will compare the NECA prop when I get a chance. I based the color on the one in the Azarian collection (it’s the one in the inset photo).

Nice job! The Neca props are all scaled smaller than their 1:1 show counterparts.

At long last! Although it’s wild that all three items are saying “not available in stores”, when I have literally seen the Bat-Transmitter on shelves in multiple Target locations.
