Uh, should have waited.
Some days you just can't get rid of a ... SHARK!

There is no one administrating the George Reeves Estate?BatmiteReturns wrote: ↑Tue Sep 12, 2023 10:13 am Could someone explain to me why a George Reeves Superman figure has never been licensed? Just amazing to me that we have not seen any licensed merchandise from the 1950s.

There were almost George Reeve toys in the 1950s like a lunch box and a Marx playset but someone did not want the royalties to go to the actor.

There are the Superman Trading Cards from 1966 featuring George, so there is a precedent.

I’ve mentioned this before in other threads over time when we’ve been talking about the ‘66 show and Adam/Burt likenesses for merch purposes during the show’s run. Usage rights for stills photography is totally different to recreating likeness in a non-photographic medium. In the case of trading cards, the photographs ownership/global usage was almost definitely owned outright by the studio, and those terms (as is precedent) would be inclusive of Reeves likeness release for any and all usages of those images.

There is a glow in the dark platinum chase version of Lord Death Man in this line. He looks really cool.

All the figures and the Batmobile.
From mcfarlane toys we site.
I think it was equal to getting the Batmobile and 1 figure free.
