Batman '66 is very similar to Batman Beyond. They use the same body, with the only differences being the collar piece, the belt, the head, and shorter boots. The big draw here for me, again, is the parts.

The head bears a good resemblance to Adam West's Batman. I can only think of one caster who offers an Adam West head - Glassman - and it is shown in my pictures below.

But I'm not sure any caster has an Adam West belt. This one is pretty good, but you can barely see the Bat-symbol in metallic silver on the metallic gold belt buckle. But it IS there.

The cape is cloth, and I personally have a disdain for soft goods.

Front, side, and back:



What baffles me with this figure is what could have been done. the Christopher Reeve Superman body would have been excellent in terms of proportions. And an earlier Arkham Batman had a non-soft goods cape with a collar which would have been very nice cast in blue. But they went in a completely different direction. Once again, I think they were focused on matching the game version and not the TV version. Bah.



And here is a size comparison with the MU "skinny" buck.



Well, that's about it for these two figures. I'll be cannibalizing them, but I will display them for now until I get around to them. Who knows? The may be on my shelf for a year or so. Until then, they'll do.

I gotta do that Bruce Wayne Beyond, though!
