Here’s something that combines some of my favorite things in life all in one collectible: Batman, collectibles, video games and Comic-Con.
This is an exclusive Batman figure from Square Enix depicting the Dark Knight as he appears in Batman: Arkham Origins. With a metallic finish, an articulated cape and accessories that include a Batarang and grappling gun, this beauty stands just under 11 inches tall. Also awesome is Square Enix’s poetic description of the figure:
"We have brought this youthful version of Batman to life in glorious three dimensions, but also we have heightened the depth and beauty of its design with a multi-dimensional luminous shine, as if watching over Gotham in the moonlight."
Classy! Of course there’s the small problem of getting to the San Diego Comic-Con and standing in line to get one, so Square Enix is making them available for pre-order. They go for $99.99, will ship out on August 11, and are limited to three per customer.
Only 500 of the total run of 1000 figures will be up for pre-order, with the rest being sold at the show, so if you want to grab one (or three, you big spender you!), you’ll want to get on that as soon as possible.
