Hi Everyone. I'm new to the forum, but I've been collecting DCUC and Movie Masters since the beginning. Anyway, I know it's a looooongshot, but I think there would really be a nostalgia market for a series of figures that are based on not only superhero movies, but also TV. I'd love to see Batman and Robin from the old 60's show...****, I'd love a purple suited Y'vonne Craig Batgirl, or Catwoman, Joker, or Riddler from that series. Or how about a Lynda Carter Wonder Woman? Or a Debra Winger Wondergirl? So many great figures. Anyone else who'd be up for these?
I'm all in for figures from any of the old TV shows. They should include the Lois & Clark or the Flash series too.
While we're on the topic of older shows/flicks, they should work on Burton's Batman & Returns as well - but not the other 2 movies as they shouldn't exist...**** you Schomaker!

i agree anyone from the tv shows would be awsome lynda carter,adam west,burt ward,ect.could you imagine a roddy mcdowell as bookworm or the great vincent price as egghead.this line could gone on forever.would be a great matty monthly and that would allow them to get it started with the key characters(witch are still living to approve their likeness)and than aquire the rest from the esstates that own the others.bet they would sell out faster than he-man.
That is true. Acquiring the rights for the old Batman series could be hard, although Mattel has produced vehicles from that show. And I know that DC Direct did a Lynda Carter statue not so long ago.
A line like this could also encompass shows such as the Flash, and again I have no idea what legal issues they might encounter - but Smallville.
Heheh, would be funny to see Elektra Woman and Dyna Girl as Matty exclusives - sort of like the Wonder Twins. Although I think those are from the Kroft stuff...which is a whole other ball of wax.
