Official Batman Classics 1966 TV Series Joker And ‘Batusi’ Batman Figure Images Arrive
Following their reveal at last week’s Warner Bros. Consumer Products/Junk Food Clothing launch event last week at Meltdown Comics (where DC’s new Batman ‘66 comic was announced), Mattel has released official images of two upcoming Batman Classic TV Series 6” action figures including a Cesar Romero Joker and “Batusi” Batman. The Joker figure is expected as part of the second wave of Batman Classics following the first wave’s rollout in July, while the “Batusi” Bats is slated to be a San Diego Comic-con 2013 exclusive. Fans will be pleased to know that this figure will come specially packaged in a TV style diorama recreating the famous scene from the 1966 Batman episode “Hi Diddle Riddle” where Adam West debuted the dance to end all dances. Pending the arrival of a King Tut figure in subsequent ‘66 toy waves, fans could also recreate Batman’s go-go moves of choice from “The Pharaoh’s in a Rut” episode.
You can see full images of both Batman Classic TV Series 6” figures on ComicsAlliance!
2013 will forever be marked as the year that Betty Felon blew all her money on Batman ‘66 merchandise (and when she developed an accidental crush on Rob Thomas).
I love that the artwork on the box is by one of my friends and favorite artists. This is a must have for me.
