Based on the official teaser images above, we expect that the figure will include a launcher for the sticky charges used in the scene along with the backpack that deployed the wings he used to fly after jumping off the building in Hong Kong.ย
Note that the Christian Bale Batman figure follows hot on the heels of a DC Multiverse figure based onย Ben Affleck‘s Batman from the 2016 filmย Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.ย That figure quickly sold out ย here at Entertainment Earthย andย here on Amazon, but McFarlane notes that it will return when it starts hitting stores in March. Also keep in mind that the Catwoman & Batpod Gold Label 2pk from The Dark Knight Rises will launch in the McFarlane Toys store as an exclusive today starting at 12pm ET.ย
McFarlane Toys also recently launched a wave of DC Direct The New Batman Adventuresย 6-inch scale action figures, which follows aย Batman: The Adventures Continue waveย that they launched in 2022.ย The New Batman Adventures, which ran from 1997 to 1999, served as a continuation ofย Batman: The Animated Series, and consisted of 24 episodes. It’s not to be confused withย The New Adventures of Batman,ย which was an animated series that ran briefly in 1977 and recently got aย collection of retro figuresย from McFarlane.ย
The New Batman Adventures lineup includes figures of Batgirl,Two-Face plus a Killer Croc and Baby Doll 2-pack. ย Each figure will include multiple accessories and a reproduction animation cel. Pre-orders are currentlyย here at Entertainment Earthย ย andย here on Amazon.
