Winning.... Until I see closer pics of terrible articulation and bad head sculpts.

You telling me a 4inch Michael Keaton, Terence Stamp, Danny Diveto, Michelle Pfeiffer and Christopher Reeve are on the cards?

Yes please.

I'm loving the Christopher Reeve Superman. Lack of knee articulation is frustrating and typical of Mattel's 1:18th line - always so close but they cheap out in the end.

Looking at the photos closer, Batman and Zod appear to have good articulation - knees, cut thighs, cut bicep (Zod at least), wrist. Catwoman and Superman sure could use more. Penguin can live without knee joints.

Four inch Reeve Superman?!!!!!!!!...my boner flung up so violently that it flipped my tablet onto the floor!

Winning.... Until I see closer pics of terrible articulation and bad head sculpts.

Sigh, yes, but I don't even care...would it be better with more articulation?...heck yes!...but I'm so happy to see Reeve get a fig that I'll forgive the shortcomings...

On the TNI Facebook page there are a bunch of people upset that these are 4" figures. I'll be picking thes up of they make it to retail.

Those people need to slide under a gas truck and fucking die.

Julie Newmar Catwoman...makes me feel uncomfortable.

Man I want this series -


I have her on pre-order. She's the only one of those figures not at retail yet. Better grab them, from what I hear this is it for the 1966 line. She doesn't look like Julie Newmar, but I suppose that was to be expected.


I'm in for all of the DC movie line, assuming I can afford them. Worst case I'd go with Catwoman and Zod, even if they louse them up.

Yeah Affordability is key for the movie line, but said something to my wife last night and she gave me the green light to preorder them the second they go on sale. I didn't even quote her a price. She knows how bad I have always wanted good DC figures. Especially Reeves!!!!!!!!!!

Now we start the waiting game.


Jesus, imagine that as a dio. A scale round table with CC, Darth Vader, Zod and Red Skull...plotting against all the dumb good guy figures...

I keep going back and forth on the 66 Batman figs.. I'll prob end up getting them, gotta get the Batman and Robin 2pack though:



If I don't get them, I'll eventually get at least this one for my desk/bookshelf display:

Yes it is, My wife actually got him for me (very weird :) ) The eye light up & just the arms move, but it is the right size & on par with what Mattel would have come out with had they gotten to BM.

If you're a fan I'd probably make the jump. We'll probably see some kind of 1:6 premium figures, but affordable action figures will probably stop here.

It would have been an easier decision if they had bothered to accessorize the figures. The show was lousy with props that should have been added to the figures.

Take it for what it's worth but GIMark posted on that other site this little tidbit:

"Wzas talking to a guy who has soem "insider info" on the new DC figs, the ones they are showing are just the proto's and that the line is to have 15 POA when released."
