As for styling, I think the only thing that detracts from Batman is the bulk of his utility belt, otherwise everything looks fantastic. That’s a common comment with most of the McFarlane figures I’ve seen, though, but the accessories that are included with Batman are pretty genius: two attachable “sound effects. I was really impressed with the different colors they used to render the Batphone, steering wheel, and some of the various levers in the main console of the car, which I kind of wish extended to other parts of the vehicle. That having been said, mine came from a reputable online retailer and it arrived clean and unscathed.

Much like Batman, it is also a great representation of Burt Ward’s Robin, even if this likeness is a little more “general young guy” than “definitely Burt Ward” in the finish.

Like the Batmobile, there’s mercifully very little assembly required, as almost every piece comes ready to use out of the box. I already dipped into the Retro 66 Batman pool a short while ago with a look at Boxing Batman and Riddler, but today I’m going to go back to basics by checking out the Dynamic Duo and their bitchin ride. McFarlane have provided us with five action figures, a Batmobile, and a massive Batcave playset for review, so I won’t waste any more time beating around the bush about how much these things rule.S. AND CANADA CRIME PHOTO FILE and an INTERNATIONAL CRIME PHOTO FILE to ensure you can solve all crimes, both foreign and domestic.

The Batpoles are the only disappointment in the entire set, as they really don’t have any way to remain stable and aren’t strong enough to support any of the figures. It has that classic black finish with the striking red highlights, and has tons of details in the cockpit.

I won’t gas on and on about what the 66 Batman TV Series meant to me, as I already did that in the above referenced review. All crimefighters need a place to rest their head, and Batman’s Batcave is no doubt the best in all of popular culture.Obviously the articulation is more limited, but I think the sculpts and coloring are either on par or in some cases better.
