McFarlane TM15708 Batman Model Car, Multicolour

Product Information

OVERALL: If you love Batman: The Classic TV Series, there is no reason why you shouldn’t track down every single one of these pieces. As for styling, I think the only thing that detracts from Batman is the bulk of his utility belt, otherwise everything looks fantastic. The color of the cowl should have probably been a little more purple than blue, and it’s not a perfect likeness of West, but it still looks great from head to toe.

So let me just say straightaway that McFarlane’s 66 Batmobile is a step down in every conceivable way from Mattel’s release.The way his domino mask looks like it’s actually sculpted onto the head with the eyes fully sculpted and painted behind it just looks superb. Yes, dear reader, you can clip a POW or a KAPOW to Batman’s wrists to show just how hard he is punching crime in the face. Because of that love, I am all in on any merchandise we can get based on the West/Ward series, so of course I love this wave of action figures from McFarlane Toys. Really, the only thing keeping them from fully modern articulation are what’s missing in the ankles and torso, and maybe some bicep swivels.

That does not mean that McFarlane’s is bad, but there are aspects of it that really push the whole retro toy concept and that’s found mainly in how small it scales to the figures. 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.

As for accessories, you get comic-style punching effects that clip onto the figure’s wrists, just like we saw with the Boxing figures. All crimefighters need a place to rest their head, and Batman’s Batcave is no doubt the best in all of popular culture. I have so much McFarlane stuff to look at, it’s really going to have to become a semi-weekly thing next year.

Honestly, the scaling here is actually a little better than what we saw with MEGO’s toys, but that’s still a pretty flimsy excuse to make an under-sized Batmobile.That beautiful yellow oval looks great against the bodysuit that is just pure West, and the pockets on the belt are upside down for ease of Batarang and other gadget retrieval. Like the Batmobile, there’s mercifully very little assembly required, as almost every piece comes ready to use out of the box.
