Flash looks great. Will not fight for it though. Much like the Az Bats, tried but not wasting the energy any longer. Make it easy or I'll end up saving all my cash on most of their products is my new mantra. No point getting reverse, if I cant get this flash. The domino effect.

This looks nothing like Yvonne Craig. Plus the figure was shown next to Batman and Robin-and she was taller than Batman. On the show she was shorter than Robin. Apparently, scale was thrown out the window here.

She looks more like a Barbie than a figure based on the show.

Craig's estate hasn't been playing ball with Batgirl merch for a while so it can't look like her, that's why her packaging says Batman '66 instead of Batman - Classic TV Series; she's from the comic based on the show rather than the show itself. Two-Face has the same distinction along with (presumably) the upcoming Lord Death Man.

I just got the figures from cmdstore and I can confirm that she isn't taller than Batman. It would be difficult to see in pics, but she's actually a tiny bit shorter.

My guess is this will be retooled into the Luke Fox suit.

Strange..Mcfarlane finally does a manties version of Batman and none of the grandpa panty lovers are saying hooray for banana hammocks on the outside of a superhero costume. DC fans..I'll never understand them. |

Oh I didn’t know Target charged me as soon as I preordered Flash. I thought they would only charge me once they ship the figure. Oh well. Lesson learned.

The neck and old Revoltech style articulation were the only things that knocked Hush Bats down a couple of points for me. Hush Bats also has the "Manties" as you call them. In fact almost every version of Batman McFarlane has released uses it. Not sure why you said,"Finally." I've always preferred the "Overwear" (I'm not calling it "Manties") design because it breaks up the sea of grey. It's just how I think of Batman and Superman. Probably due to the fact that I looked at that design cue for 30 years before it was changed. Great figure. I'll definitely be picking it up. Quote:

I've always thought that was the stupidest name of any Batskick. Was he silver in the comics? Looks to be black suited on the card art. But it's Todd so they rarely makes a difference. Last edited by firmpulse; 05-22-2023 at 08:10 AM.. |

I didn't even notice hush had manties.. this version though there is a clear contrast stark color difference. You can't get more grandpa panty lover than this version.

There have been clearly contrasted and stark color differences in all the Batman McFarlane figures that use briefs. Knightfall Batman is no exception. ActionFigure411 has a visual guide. Check for yourself and be amazed at all the briefiness you've been missing!

Why exactly was it stupid for guys designing superheroes in the 30s and 40s to include trunks as a way to draw on the imagery of circus strongmen, a ubiquitous image of immense strength at the time? And then for guys designing superheroes later to also use trunks to draw on their by-then-established association with superheroes as an image of strength?

If I were concerned about things that’d look silly when objectively considered, superheroes would be a bad thing to take an interest in. Figure looks great, btw.
