Batman '66 is terrible, I actually preferred playing WWELE over it when I was at a distributor's party and the two were side by side.

It was Stern's test to see how much they could charge while putting as little money into the game as possible. There are two plastic cutout cats for the Catwoman ramps. We couldn't get plastic figures, metal figures? The Batphone looks like a Happy Meal toy. There is a literal hotwheel car on some standups. Were it not for the crane mech, it would be nearly as cheap in parts as GOT pro, their slimmest and weakest offering since Avatar.

It has a great looking cabinet and PF art, but that is the only thing positive I can say about Batman '66. I'd feel pretty embarrassed about dropping the ludicrous price they're asking for a BM66 and getting so little on the playfield.

Also

Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:

Scary isn't it?
People with knowledge (including development and industry professionals) and long time collectors stopped trying to answer.
Others simply never started because it seemed overly wasteful.
New hobbyists have the answers.
Old hobbyists that started "all the way back in 2010" have the answers.

We're only in April but I doubt we'll see a more pretentious post for the rest of the year. Please go back to RGP and continue to reminisce about the good old days.
