Remember that adorable QMx Batman: Family statue? Well, it's getting a sequel, and this time the kids have no adult supervision. Just about everyone was taken with QMx's last Bat-Family release. When we spoke with the company at Toy Fair earlier this year, even they seemed a bit surprised by the reaction it received. The…
Diamond Select just added another evil Batman to its lineup of Dark Nights: Metal Dark Multiversal madmen, and this time, it's the Dawnbreaker—a nightmare Bruce Wayne who—on that fateful day in Crime Alley—acquired a Green Lantern ring and used it to exact vengeance on Joe Chill and, indeed, the world. I've been fairly impressed with each of…
Kotobukiya is back with the latest addition to its Batman line, a new addition of the Bishoujo Batwoman. The Bishoujo moniker denotes a product line that sees U.S. female comic character re-imagined in an anime style. This 1/7 scale figure will see Batwoman with an all-new metallic paint job. The figure is up for pre…
I wasn't able to make it out to SDCC this year (or any year, for that matter), so I was left watching and newsgathering from thousands of miles away. But the good folks at NECA were good enough to send a little San Diego my way, and about a week or so after the show,…
Prime1 Studio is back with a new statue for your collection and Bane is here to pound Batman into the mud. And to beat your wallet into submission. Standing around 32.5-inches tall, this new statue of Bane will take over any room it's in. The basic statue will sell for $1,699, and the EX version…
Sideshow is back with a new Premium Format figure, and it's a frightening version of the Scarecrow. Scarecrow is one of those members of the Rogues Gallery that never seem to get enough love. Sure you have Joker, Catwoman, and so on that constantly get new statues, but poor Dr. Crane seems to be left…
Gotham is a dense, sprawling city with tall buildings, busy highways, and dark alleys. In his quest to protect the city, sometimes he needs a vehicle which can go where the Batmobile cannot. Enter the Batcycle. It’s maneuverable, stylish, and capable of tremendous speed – what more could a crime fighter hope for when taking…
Mezco Toyz has announced a new addition to its One:12 toy line. Harley is on the way, and she's brought the rocket launcher with her. The Mezco One:12 line is always well-done, but this new Harley looks fantastic. And she has plenty of accessories with her such as a joker doll, mallet, bombs, and a…
The Amazing Yamaguchi Revoltech Harley Quinn is on the way, and there are finally official photos showing us what to expect.

I'm not quite sure why, but I love the Green Arrow. Maybe it was my childhood affection for all things Robin Hood, maybe it's something else, but regardless, I just do. So when I saw this puppy at Toy Fair this year, I knew it had to be mine. Diamond was kind enough to send…
I first saw Diamond's Comic Gallery Batman at Toy Fair 2018. At the time, I was happy that DST was bringing Batman to the affordable gallery line, but I wasn't nuts about his head—especially the face, with its teeth gritted in constipation. I kind of felt the same way at this year's Toy Fair—after all,…

Once again it's time to see what our collectible budgets can handle as the new DC Collectibles solicitations have arrived. The solicitations for March 2020 are out, and, as always, there are plenty of Batman related items. BATMAN VS. HARLEY QUINN BATTLE STATUE SECOND EDITION sculpted by ALEJANDRO PEREIRA This Batman versus Harley Quinn battle…
The Babsgirl of Burnside is something I would rather forget. 30-something issues into the New 52, DC went all silly with Barbara Gordon, and it took a long time for her to get anywhere close to serious again. Don’t get me wrong—I like fun; but DC had turned Barbara into something of a caricature of…

Based on the Batman seen in the iconic The Dark Knight Returns storyline, this new MAFEX figure will stand approx. 6.3-inches tall and will include two interchangeable lower jaws as well as interchangeable hands for Batarangs, a fabric cape,…
DC Collectibles gave Batman News the opportunity to speak with Jim Fletcher, the executive director of DC Collectibles, at San Diego Comic-Con, and we jumped at the chance to talk toys, statues, and the recently announced Todd McFarlane Batman: Black & White statue. However, Jim Fletcher did not plan on showing up alone. Just a…

Both the basic statue and the deluxe version will sell for $1,049 and $1,199 respectively. The deluxe version will include an alternate…
Okay. This doesn’t happen often, but I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news: this one isn’t very good. Say it ain’t so If you’re making a statue replicating a famous actor from a film, so much of your success depends on how well you replicate the likeness of said actor. Diamond did it will with…
