McFarlane Toys Gives Closer Look At 1966 Batman and Robin Figures

The dynamic duo is back as Adam West and Burt Ward dons their costumes once again from the adventures of Batman from 1966. A while back, McFarlane Toys reveals a quick glimpse at their upcoming wave of figures giving a retro take to their DC Multiverse line. Today we get a closer look at some of these figures with an official reveal of the wave from up-close images to their retro-style packaging. Of course, the dynamic duo has to start things off first, with both coming in a special card-backed blister packaging. They will also feature some new features compared to other DC Multiverse figures, like new fabric capes that add extra depth to the figure. Both Batman and Robin do not come with any gear, but they will include some old-school comic book sound effects allowing fans to display iconic POW, BOOM, SLAP, fighting scenes.

These figures are quite interesting as they do come in the bigger 7" format but are treated as retro figures with 5 points of articulation. Batman and Robina are highly detailed and will make an excellent addition to any fan's collection either way. However, the Batman 1966 wave of figures will be Target Exclusive, making it quite impossible for the average collector to get their hands on. McFarlane Toys has revealed that pre-orders will go live in August, so hopefully, collectors can secure them online. Stay tuned for more collectibles coming out of the Batman 1966 wave of DC Multiverse figures.
