Same, I might not have had nostalgia for Adam West's Batman as I did with Kevin Conroy's Batman (*which I mean no offense to those who do.) besides my other favorite Batmans like Rino Romaro,Diedrich Bader, and Roger Craig Smith even tho' then again I did also love Adam West's voice as his Batman parody from The Fairly OddParents called "Catman". But both of their Batmans did inspire me to make my own Batman OC's based on both of them as my OC Batman team would be also called "The Bat Brothers" and the best part about them is? not only as their personalities would be based on both Adam West's Batman with alittle bit of bodacious touch of the 1987 TMNT? the Bat Bros' costumes,gear, and vehicles would also be also based on the concepts of the BTAS toylines that I also thought were fun too when I looked them up imo such as Crime Squad and D.U.O. Force😄
That Kenner Mr. Freeze Headsculpt is literally perfect, it captures the spirit of the character. I think it’s helped by his lack of a smile and they didn’t have to paint his eyes but I can just imagine hearing his cold robotic tone so easily.
You just gave a perfect eulogy that probably rivals what will or was said at Kevin Conroy's funeral at the end there. RIP Kevin Conroy, you will be missed, but every time someone watches the Batman the animated series, or plays Batman Arkham, we will remember how legendary he was.
Kevin Conroy was definitely my first Batman. He may have been my first superhero ever, honestly. I didn’t even know of the show, actually, I saw the action figure from Kenner in a toy flyer that got mailed to my house the same day I heard some kid talking about him at pre-k. It was a Combat Belt Batman, and I became aware of the show shortly after I got him. Like with most 90’s kids, the journey was made backwards into comics after first being introduced to Spider-Man and the rest of the big staples on Fox Kids, but Batman was always more special than the rest and, for me, Conroy’s take was definitely a huge part of that at the time. Say what you want about the whole DC vs Marvel thing now, but Marvel will NEVER have a show (live action or otherwise) as good as Batman: the Animated Series, and for that matter, I don’t think DC will again, either. Thank you for making this great tribute to Kevin, and cheers!
I'm fairly certain that Mask of the Phantasm was my first-ever exposure to Batman. I remember seeing the VHS cover at a video store and thinking it looked cool. Renting it likely helped in starting my lifelong interest in Batman. Thank you for everything, Kevin Conroy
Correct. It also matches how the Italian edition movie poster re-colored Adam West for the 1960s movie. Google Italian Batman poster to see what I mean.
Hearing his voice just brings back memories of times when animation and action figures was much more enjoyable. He pretty much set the standard for the Batman voice film or animation
Thanks we needed that.. Another great video. I met the man once at a Wizard World Chicago, and he was way nicer than i could ever imagine, so cool, i was in awe, couldn't think of anything to say to that big smile, but "great meeting you". He will be missed, especially for future Batman endeavors, but like you said, he will live on in our movies, games, shows, and our toys, as our Batman, always.
It was definitely a gut punch when he passed but you know what his animated series will live on he was a true Batman I used to love watching Batman every night when I'd come home from school the figures are great to have
What a lovely and fitting tribute. I am glad it came up in my recommended now. At the time I was just so bummed. Seeing it now really puts a smile on my face. Remembering the joy. Well done.
Nice video :D I remember my first time watching BTAS which was on Jetix after watching my first Batman cartoon which is 2004 on Kids WB, and yet when I also found out that the show use to have a toyline when I watched a toy commercial of it on RUclips while as a kid after also knowing that before Hasbro existed it was Kenner? I was surprised and imo I gotta say, these BTAS figures along with TAOBAR,TNBA, and Beyond are pretty cool imo, even the Batman figure from Mattel's Justice League TAS/Unlimited toyline too since I grew up with all of those DCAU shows besides other Batman series' like 2004,The Brave and The Bold, and Batman Unlimited (2015-16) after all :) Also, I know they aren't on this video even tho' I also never had any of them, but I think my favorite series of the BTAS toyline would have to be Crime Squad and D.U.O. Force since even tho' some might think they aren't accurate to the show or comics? I always thought they seemed to be pretty cool concepts since they also gave me the idea to make my own Batman OC's based on those pretty cool concepts after all👍 RIP Kevin Conroy, may both his and Adam West's legacies as Batman live on. 🦇
Thank you. I once stood six feet from him and almost met him. I wish I had. I'll tell the story at some point. I tried in this video but it hurt too much.
Sir you are as of now my favorite content creator and have re connected me with collectives ... Thanks for brighten a day that for me, has been very hard
Thank you for the video! I look forward to seeing more Kevin Conroy action figure showcases! He will always be my favorite Batman! I just read his DC Pride short comic and it was interesting to hear about the real life ties he brought to his portrayal. The comic was a little more specific than the interviews/podcasts he’s done over the years. Thanks!
My Batman then and still my Batman now. Whenever I see Batman talk it's Kevin Conroy's voice I hear. To me, he gave life to Batman. I can't stop playing "Am I Blue" RIP Kevin Conroy.
5poa I'm gonna say this you're one of my favorite RUclipsrs to watch for action figures of all sorts even retros and man it reminds me so much of Alex Webb and I love his content too rip Alex much respect to him
Thank you so much. I am truly touched. His name was Glenn, and he was one of my biggest inspirations. He was my introduction to the world of action figure reviews, and the person that made me want to do this. He was one of a kind, completely irreplaceable, and will always be the best. Glad you enjoyed this video!
@@5POAFigureReviews I enjoy all your videos plus your collection of retro figures kinda inspired me to go out and find retro figures of batman or just anything of action figures I'm fond of collecting even a bit of McFarlane even if they can be pricey but honestly your content and energy brought to them is why I love your videos keep up the great work
I’m only 21 but luckily there was the Hub channel at the time so I was also able to come home after school & watch Batman: tas around 4 after doing homework. I still remember the chills I got they way Batman defeated bane lol. Sometimes they’d play the ‘66 batman series too. Arkham city just came out & we had that one legacy edition city batman figure with the traditional blue & grey colors & the yellow & black emblem… With all of the batman content, toys & media at the time I was eating it all up; & with Kevin Conroy & Mark Hamill at the center stage of it all, this is a very detrimental blow on mine & the childhoods of the many fans of Kevin Conroy. R.I.P.🙏💙
I had some of these growing up. Unfortunately, many if not all of them got sold in a garage sale. Although thankfully, I've been doing a soft reboot of my collection since approximately summer 2004.
Funny how toys can overlap between people, as a kid ya never think about it My cousin had that same bane, without the wrist clip and tube, but we used to use him so much. We had these ice ball things from some other toy we made him throw at batman. Similarly the joker holding the card is a mold I had, mine was well loved and a ton of the paint is torn up, as a kid I used to pretend the card was a stick of gum and due to the soft face would make him bite it haha Great childhood memories
The old joker is beat up, yet the better mold, I got him mint compared to yours. I got the batman and Robin adventures plastic Cape batman, Robin kid and nightwing, best for the time. Good times!
Adam West and Kevin Conroy are still two of the greatest incarnations of Batman we ever had.
May they never be forgotten.
Oh, they never will. The Light Knight and the Dark Knight will go on forever.

3:15 Batman with red tights is what Bob Kane originally designed Batman to have. Co-creator Bill Finger is the reason why Batman has grey tights.
