On another note, I wonder how that batmobile compares to the old '89 version? It looks like a almost exact copy. If those turrets lift up using the gear shift then I will shit a brick.

The Kenner version had a hinged canopy-type roof and fit one larger 5-ish" figure, IIRC. The ToyBiz version was a convertible (lol), fit two and had the gear shift lever that pushed up the launchers. I actually really like the ToyBiz one (1:18 figures look alright in it), but I could never find the time to come up with a good canopy/roof for it.

I wonder if i can switch Batman heads with the Multiverse version.
I never really cared for the bat ears on it they are a bit too thick

I'm the same (I used Bale Batman heads from that Mattel 5POA line on mine). Anyway, past Spin Master toys have made head swaps difficult because they use a separate neck ball "dog bone"-type piece that plugs into a hole in the neck and extends down into the torso. You gotta really heat the heads up til they're super-soft or you'll snap that separate neck ball piece.

I'm thinking they'll be around $30 and that's not bad considering what everything else is selling now. I'm excited for these releases.

Same here, I'd rather sell other toys though not jewelry to make space for these new stuff.

I like the ToyBiz one too and it doesn't look that bad with 4" figures.

I have a 3D head to print that is much better. I was going to use it on the Multiverse version. But now with this one coming out I have to reevaluate. Articulation on this may be a bit better. I did improve on the multiverse one, adding a rotating elbow something that they didn't add in all figures. I did that in Deathstroke, AK and 89 Batman using parts from GI Joe fodder i have.

Kinda waiting for the Batwing to appear for sale specially online. Hope these come to UK. I wonder how they did get their hands on this.

The Filix Toys "The Clown" doesn't disappoint.

I’m a man of my word..

my Walmart got the new Spn Master DC assortment with Lex Luthor
WOW those packages are so plain!

I preordered the Batman '66 Wayne Library and Batboat. I know they're supposed to be for the 6" figures, but I'll use them with 4" guys. The Batcave, Villains' Lair and Batmobile scale better with 4" so I'm sure these will follow suit. Anyway, this stuff rules! I'm a sucker for these sorts of throwback toys. McFarlane did a terrific job capturing a bygone era, not just for entertainment/television but for toys too.
