McFarlane’s so-called “Villain’s Lair” is set for pre-order…
We knew McFarlane had a “Villain’s Lair” set on the way through Target — and I hoped against hope that it would be a 6-inch-scale replica of the United Underworld Headquarters from the 1966 Batman movie.
Thing is, the movie is not part of the overall Batman ’66 merch license. So what to do?
Well, McFarlane got super-clever and posted for pre-order today the generically named “Villain’s Lair,” which is a dead-on replica of the UU HQ — only renamed Villains United and with a different logo.
Bravo!

— There are also black-and-white versions of Batman and the Joker. They don’t do it for me but they might do it for you.

My overall opinion is that the craftsmanship is in the packaging. The McFarlane line just isn’t cutting it for me.

Plus that is the wrong catwoman for the movie. Lee didn’t have the necklace.

That’s a Newmar figure. Meriwether is not part of the license. But you can still pretend!

Is the Newmar figure a McFarlane product? I was under the impression that the McFarlane Newmar figure was not released yet.

Yes, it’s a McFarlane figure. She’s been up for pre-order for a couple weeks.

That is kind of awesome!

We want Batgirl & Egghead!

I too want Egghead, King Tut and Mad Hatter as well. Wish they didn’t stop making chase figures. Was hoping for a Masked Penguin and Unmasked Julie Catwoman. I hope we get a Batcopter and Batboat to complete the Bat vehicles

More villians like king tut, mad hatter, egghead, and book worm…
