And I cannot wait until it gets here in October…

That statue of Batman vs Joker is worth to me the price tag of $99 dollars.  No offense to the Joker Hamilll worked with in both Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, but they made this Joker very ‘attractive’ (yes, even for a computer animated character) and modern at the same time.  I like the new concept and the new look. 

Now, here is the pic of the Collector’s Edition:

The source of the Collector’s Edition details is Arkhamverse.com who claim the original picture was leaked to a French site.  A summary of the contents of the ARKHAM ORIGINS Collector’s Edition was also provided along with the leaked pic:

I really am waiting for the release of this figure.  I had collected the other Kai Arts figures (Joker, Joker Black, and Harley Quinn) and have to say that the quality of the craftmanship is impressive for such a small action figure (as compared with the much larger Hot Toys and Enterbay).  Here is a video I found reviewing the figure and makes me even more curious.  I need to get my hands on this figure.

Sideshow Collectibles have created a Museum Quality Harley Quinn statue to be released next year that will serve as companion to the previous Museum Quality Joker Statue. It comes in a regular edition and a Exclusive Sideshow Edition.  Here are some pics:

Knock knock, Puddin’!

Mr. J’s right hand gal takes center stage, suited for crime sprees and clowning around in her signature red and black fabric bodysuit. With her trademark wooden mallet at the ready, the Gotham City bad girl flaunts her flair for mayhem with that one-of-a-kind crazed grin. You’ll be in mad love:

Surfing the net I found this whimsical and funny sculpture of the Joker and her henchwoman on vacation. Sculpted by Adam Hastings, I found it well sculpted and quite funny. Hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.  Here is a picture of the sculpture:

Funko is releasing another series of figurines from the DC Universe.  This time it is Gotham theme as they release a series of 20 different figurines ( about 2-3 inches tall) packed individually.  The only draw back of the whole series…you’d never know which figure you’d be getting until you open each box.  Anyways, they are ready to pre-order HERE  ($6 each or $125 whole case) and I think that the series looks very cute as a whole.  The series includes:

  • Three Random Blue Costume  Batman figures
  • Three Random Black Costume Batman figures
  • Three random Classic Joker figures
  • Three Random Dark Knight Joker figures
  • Three Random Batgirls figures
  • Two Random Penguins figures
  • Two Random Catwoman Figures

Looking at this one (though I would have preferred a larger pic and maybe more pics from other sources) I think Cesar Romero would be proud.  YES! it even has his famous painted over moustache…
