I wish they would have used this torso for the single-carded figure.

I can't wait for all of this.

Well, Movie Masters Superman already started to appear on Ebay, how many days until we could find our first Bats :wink:

Later in the Summer, I would presume. The Man of Steel line is due in stores a few months earlier than the 1960s Batman line, afterall. Isn't the 60s line set for a Fall release?

BBTS has Catwoman up for pre-order. No picture yet though.

$17.99 for 1 figure? Am I reading that right?

Yes. So what? That's where prices are at these days, or have you not been paying attention for the last 12-18 months? It's better than the $19.99 price some 6" scale lines are now going for. And unlike the DCUC line, I'm sure the price is more justifiable in this particular line due to the cost of likeness rights for the actors they are depicting.

Haven't been paying attention for the last 12-18 months. I don't collect that much, just get what amuses me. I think the last 6" figure I bought was Mary Marvel.

Also, I thought these were smaller than the 6" scale. But I could be wrong, it's been know to happen.

BBTS prices sometimes run a couple of dollars higher than brick & mortar stores; and $17.99 is actually a dollar cheaper than what they are charging for DC/Batman Unlimited Figures. So I'm thinking the '66 figures will probably range between $14.99 and $15.99 in places like Target & Walmart. That is, if you can find them there.

Already preordered mine. Thanks for sharing.

Now that Catwoman is up for pre-order, I hope that means a photo of her is coming soon. Curious to see which one they went with.... Newmar, Kitt, or Merriweather. I'm betting its Newmar since she's the best known of the 3 Catwomen on that show.

Judging by the Barbie version of Batman and Catwoman, Kitt is out of question. I bet it's Newmar too.

...of course they could release multiple versions though I think Newmarr's height would be all wrong for Kitt...

I wouldn't just be her height that is off. The three women all had fairly discernible body styles as well and to do them justice would be unique sculpts for each.
