A new McFarlane DC Multiverse Batman figure has gone up for pre-order via Target in the US as an exclusive, and via a few specialist stores elsewhere around the globe. Taken from Dark Knights: Metal, the Battle Damage Batman is a tweak to the existing Dark Knights: Metal Batman from 2020. This new version features a tattered cloak as well as bloody scratch marks on the body and exposed face. The double axe accessories remain, and the figure uses the same collectable art card. The Target US listing has this new Batman as a 1st of August 2021 release. The back of the box promo image also gives us an insight into more future releases with an image of a Hal Jordan Green Lantern and the Armoured Darkseid from The Justice League. Following the universe-shattering events of Dark Nights: Metal, the Earth is enveloped by the Dark Multiverse and has transformed into a hellish landscape twisted beyond recognition. Willing to sacrifice his own humanity for the greater good, Batman wields an evil Black Lantern power ring, which grants him the power to resurrect the dead. Now, leading an army of zombies and riding a Batcycle made of bones, the Dark Knight wages war against The Batman Who Laughs and his omnipotent goddess, Perpetua, in his mission to save the DC Multiverse! Incredibly detailed 7” scale figures based off the DC Multiverse Designed with Ultra Articulation with up to 22 moving parts for full range of posing and play Batman figure features a new cape and battle damage and is based on his look in the Dark Nights: Metal Comic Batman includes two axes and a base Included collectable art card with Batman figure photography on the front, and character biography on the back Collect all McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Figures If you are reading this via a 3rd party website that is importing our newsfeed, please come and visit us directly and give us a follow on Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube.

From the 1992 sequel to the TIm Burton Batman movie, Batman Returns, comes this latest 1/10 Art Scale statue from Iron Studios. The piece has the Michael Keaton Batman atop a bat-signal that itself is surrounded by rooftop gargoyles. The 13-inch high polystone statue will be a quarter 2 release in 2022. A concrete totem-shaped base, surrounded by gargoyles shaped like Chimeras, serves as a platform for one of Gotham's most striking symbols, the Bat-signal, which is a powerful spotlight used by law enforcement officers led by the admirable Commissioner Jim Gordon. The Bat sign is used to summon Gotham City's most dedicated defender. With his symbol reflected in the skies, the Dark Knight answers the call and scales the artifact, hidden by the shadows of his dense black cape that surrounds his body, like the great wings of a bat, symbol of his identity and cause. Thus, Iron Studios proudly presents its statue "Batman Deluxe Art Scale 1/10 - Batman Returns - Iron Studios", inspired by the classic 1992 version directed by Tim Burton, who once again brought the Dark Knight to the big screen, starting his first film franchise. In the sequel of the movie Batman (1989), actor Michael Keaton, in the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman, once again re-emerges as the city's protective agent, acting alongside the police force in fighting crime. The challenge of this crusade becomes even greater with the appearance of the Red Triangle Circus Gang led by the fearsome Penguin (Danny DeVito), a villain rejected from his origins, abandoned by his aristocratic parents due to his congenital deformities, who returns seeking revenge. The enigmatic Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer), the feline villain who has a romantic and troubled relationship with the night hero. Both villains are manipulated by the corrupt tycoon Max Shreck (Christopher Walken) and his illicit schemes for greed and power. Batman is added to the list alongside the already announced statues "Penguin - Batman Returns - Art Scale 1/10" and "Catwoman - Batman Returns - Art Scale 1/10" by Iron Studios, forming the trio of main characters in the line derived from this iconic version of the Dark Knight. A hit with fans and critics, the film was nominated for two Academy Awards: Best Visual Effects and Best Makeup. Features: - Limited edition - Based on original movie references - Made in polystone - Hand painted - Product dimensions: 13.3 in (H) x 7.8 in (W) x 7.4 in (L) - Product Weight: 1.7 lbs - MSRP: USD 179.99 - Release schedule: Second quarter of 2022 If you are reading this via a 3rd party website that is importing our newsfeed, please come and visit us directly and give us a follow on Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube.

McFarlane has shared the first look at their 1966 Batman TV show line of figures. The picture gives us the first look at Batman, Robin, and The Joker. There are also plenty of Batcave props in the image and what looks to be a scaled Batmobile. The initial listing for this line leaked indicated these were 6-inch scale, smaller than the other DC Multiverse line. The social media posts talked about a DC Retro line which indicates more figures are planned and potentially wider than the 1966 Batman series. There will be more details in a Summer showcase event - but no dates as yet.
