McFarlane Toys has done it again and announced six new 6-Inch action figures based on the comic book version of the classic 1960s TV show – Batman 1966.
Each figure is designed to be fully articulated for precise posing and maybe even play… we won’t judge you…
They also include two action world bubbles and are packaged in a card-backed blister with the iconic old-school look of the 1960s Batman series.
Here are the new figures announced and that are due to be released in November:
The Joker (DC Retro: Batman 66 Comic)
Once a small-time crook, The Joker fell into a vat of chemicals that turned his skin white, his hair green, and his lips red like a crazed clown.
His crimes always involve pranks and jokes ending with twisted punchlines that are only funny to The Joker. He may look like he’s clowning around, but this guy is bad news for Batman and Gotham City.
The Joker includes a large key.
Lord Death Man (DC Retro: Batman 66 Comic)
Lord Death Man was a mysterious crime boss who could return from the dead.
In one gruesome incident, he came back to life mid-autopsy. Lord Death Man also had superhuman strength and stamina, which he used to battle Batman, The Outsiders, and Talon.
Ra’s al Ghul even sought to siphon the regenerative fluids from Lord Death Man’s body. Lord Deathman includes a sword.
Robin (DC Retro: Batman 66 Comic)
How lucky can orphan Dick Grayson get? He gets taken in by the wealthiest man in Gotham City, who happens to be Batman.
He gets to live in a mansion with a cave, kick villain butt, and cruise around in the world’s most incredible car.
Robot Batman (DC Retro: Batman 66 Comic)
As a child, Bruce Wayne’ watched as his parents were brutally killed in Gotham City’s Crime Alley.
Traumatised by their deaths, he devoted his life to becoming the world’s greatest weapon against crime-the Batman.
He’s a master detective and an expert martial artist, but his greatest weapon is his mind. Robot Batman includes two jet-leg attachments.
Superman (DC Retro: Batman 66 Comic)
Sent to Earth from the dying planet of Krypton as a baby, Kai-El was found by farmers Martha and Jonathan Kent and raised as their son, Clark.
