42 Robin, Heroes, Classic Batman

Robin

Robin if from Batman which is a live action television series that aired in the 1960s.

Robin is number 42 in the Batman classic series Heroes line of Funko pop vinyl figures.

The figure is easily recognisable as Robin.

He has a black mask, a cute Funko nose and no mouth.

His costume looks accurate to me.

He has the bright colours of the original television series.

Due to the program being so campy and the characters so flamboyant many believe that Batman and Robin were not just partners in crime-fighting.

Batman and Robin, partners?

 Batman and Robin ready for a driving lesson.

Oh no! There is only one seat in the Batmobile, Robin is going to have to sit on Batman's lap, or find another ride.

I believe Robin had a motorbike, but he looks at home in the Batmobile.

My couple Funko pops to date. From left to right, Jaime Lannister and Cersei Lannister,  Rides Batman and Robin, Khal Drogo and Daenerys Targaryen.

01 Rides Batmobile

BATMAN & BATMOBILE

This figure and the car is based on the 1960s live action television series. Batman is well known for its campness of the possibly (closeted homosexual) duo batman and robin.

The front of the box

 The back of the box.

In the box you get a classic looking television series Batman and the Batmobile.

 

Here we see the steel looking pipes.

 

The bonet and front grill look awesome and kind of bat like. 

 

Got to love the bat-rims.

 

Rocket exhaust!

 

The interior is spare, there is a steering wheel. The peg is for Batmans foot.

 

Batmans foot has a hole, other figures can sit in the car but do not have a hole in their foot.

 

Batman can leave the car and he looks just as good standing beside it as he does driving. 

 

The figure is unmistakably Batman.

 

The paint and detail is good.

 

Cool bat-cape.

 Unfortunately the god bat-symbol on the bat-buckle of the bat-utility belt is off center.

OPINION:

I think the rides line is going to be cool, i can think of a few id like to see, The Time Machine, and Herbie would be great. What vehicles would you like to see in the Pop  Rides line?  

 

Arya Stark cant reach the breaks!

 

Captain Jack doesn't need the Black Pearl, but a Pop Black Peal would be cool.

 

Shelden cooper parked in the Batmobile, id like to see a Time Machine for the gang to sit in, and a Morlok.

 Its the zombie apocolipse as if you wouldn't go for a drive in the Batmobile!

A video review:

Preview: DC comics

DC COMICS

More figures grace the Heroes Pop line.

First up we have Batman Beyond, what makes him beyond you may ask, well he is from the future, and has the funky costume to prove it.

The girlfriend of the Joker is a super villain in her own right having immunity to poisons.

We are all doomed, its Darkseid! Darkseid is an alien super villain with rock like skin, eye beams that erase his enemy's from existence,  energy blast shooting hands, multi dimensional -time - space teleportation, super strength, speed, genius, and endurance among other things, he is not to be toyed with.

 Who is this Nightwing? Its Robin, Batmans special friend in disguise.

I love the fact that these are not bobble heads.
