I love these kits.
I just wish they'd release a new one soon.

He also had a one-piece.
I think that may have been his first look, later on he had the suit.

I think the one piece with the eye mask was more iconic and would have made for a better kit

Might have been a licensor decision. Moebius might not have had a choice on which version to use.

I'm loving these kits put out by Mobius and I think this is another must-have for me. I personally love the suit choice instead of the leotards. Very cool!

PRETTY sure putting him in the suit was Frank's call and a bit of a nod to the unproduced Aurora figure. BTW, this kit will come with two different heads (hatted and bareheaded) with an option to put the eyemask on him. :D

Maybe the masked version will be better.

Maybe, maybe not. I've read recently that the licensor still has issues with the Robin sculpt and hasn't approved it for production.
The older I get, the better it was.

I was kind of thinking the same. The body is well proportioned and sculpted, but the likeness just isn't there.

Maybe if his head was tilted down as in the boxart it might look a little better. May not be final sculpt on the face either.

Took a quick look all only one line mentions the costume ::
3. Riddler had two costumes. One was the suit with bowler hat, the other pictured above.
The picture was the tights.

He was only in one season. John Astin replaced him in the second.
