I love the Eartha! Pengy is cool, but no umbrella? I mean, I get it, but disappointed. Boxing Riddler looks sharp, but Batman's belt looks like they just painted over his regular belt. Disappointing, again. He doesn't wear his utility belt to box. That said, I am getting them all!

Yeah they just retooled the Surfer Batman to the boxer one-- hence the belt. Still fun.

That is going to be one tall Eartha! Maybe if you took the upper arm and upper leg portions off it would be more to scale? ;0 I jest of course, super fun that these are being made even if they aren't everyone's cuppa.

Guesses at Platinum variants? I'm figuring maskless Eartha, masked Pengy.

I can't imagine you aren't right. I'd love to see a Clammed up Burt Variant-- just his leg sticking out of a giant clam-- I'd leave him in there!

I suspect that the sculpt is actually based on Julie?

A Mayor Penguin would be a easy Chase figure to do too, just have to add 2 buttons on his black jacket and maybe throw in a Vote For Penguin poster.

Still pretty satisfied wth the Mattel Penguin. And he had a cigarette holder and an umbrella. The McFarlane face sculpts on Riddler and Joker were vast improvements.

Great to get an Eartha! The sparkle-effect looks great!

The Mattel Penguin looks like a better sculpt. The McFarlane one looks wonky and just does not look complete without a cigarette holder and umbrella.

It’s hard for companies to put weapons and cigarette accessories with toys these days. I’m sure McFarlane would have loved to include at least the cigarette, but parents freak over everything now. The Mattel Penguin had the best sculpt of the Mattel figures, but I’m pretty sure the final McFarlane Penguin will be better if judging by the other figures released so far.

I see on the back of Eartha’s box package it says Catwoman (S3) so I take it Julie’s Catwoman will just say Catwoman? If they get to Lee (and I’m praying they do) it will maybe say Catwoman (Movie)?

And the new Batgirl film comes out this year, it will be silly if DC/WB doesn’t try to get Yvonne’s likeness back in the game. McFarlane would definitely make Batgirl to tie in with that film.
