Mattel has posted some carded images of the second wave of its Retro-Action DC Super Heroes line. I can’t remember the last time an action figure line got a pink card – if there ever was a time that happened. Odd choice, right?

The pink card seems like an odd choice, but oddly enough the original Mego Batman from the 70’s had a pink card this exact color.
that explains it – I knew it had to be something like that. thanks for the info!
Yep, and this shade of pink was also used on the Six Million Dollar Man / Bionic Woman boxed toys from the 70s.
But no Batarang???
Aquaman has a trident. Black Manta has a backpack that looks like it would attach to his helmet.
But Batman doesn’t have a Batarang and Two-Face doesn’t have a gun. That just seems odd to me.
