Batman is an American live action television series that aired on ABC from January 12, 1966, to March 14, 1968. The show, starring Adam West as Batman and Burt Ward as Robin, was notable for its camp style, upbeat theme music, and its intentionally humorous, simplistic morality.

The series was known for its iconic comic book-inspired graphics during fight scenes, characterized by comic-book style sound effects like "POW!" and "BAM!" that were superimposed over the action.

The series featured many colorful and eccentric villains from Batman's rogues gallery, including the Joker, the Penguin, the Riddler, and Catwoman, who would devise elaborate schemes to take over Gotham City, only to be foiled by the Dynamic Duo.

Despite running for only three seasons, the Batman TV series had a lasting cultural impact and contributed significantly to the popularization of the Batman character beyond comic books, influencing numerous future adaptations of the DC Comics superhero.

Robin as portrayed by Burt Ward in the 1960s Batman TV series is one of the most iconic versions of the character. Known for his enthusiastic exclamations like "Holy [something], Batman!" and his unwavering loyalty to the Caped Crusader, this iteration of Robin became a pop culture phenomenon.

Dick Grayson was orphaned when his parents, circus acrobats, were killed in a tragic accident. Bruce Wayne took him in as his ward and trained him to become his crime-fighting partner, Robin, the Boy Wonder.

In the episode this figure is based on, "The Ring of Wax," Robin was turned into a wax statue by the Riddler's elaborate scheme. Batman had to use special Bat-wax solvent to free his young ward from this predicament - thus the "Waxed Robin" figure with its accompanying accessories.

Robin's colorful costume with its bright red, green, and yellow elements provided a stark visual contrast to Batman's darker attire, symbolizing the character's more optimistic outlook and youthful energy that balanced Batman's more serious demeanor.
