Mattel '66 Batman and Robin 2-Pack 2013

When Mattel announced they had the license to make toys based on the television show, Batman, there was immediate joy at the idea of finally having figures of Burt Ward, Adam West, and all the other fantastic actors involved. This lasted for about forty-five seconds before those same people then realized that it was Mattel making the announcement. We knew, then, that it probably wasn't going to end well.

Funko Pop! '66 Batman and Batmobile

Wait just a cotton pickin' minute! How can you be reviewing Funko Pop!'s Batman and Batmobile when you say you're only going to be reviewing old stuff? Are you breaking your rules in your very first week?

Yes, yes.. I hear you and your queries. There's a very simple answer, though - 1966 was a very long time ago, and this captures the Batman of that era, so I figure it's close enough. Also, I'm not charging you, so I feel like I can get away with a lot!
