Well, now McFarlane Toys has just announced they’ll be launching the Detective Comics #27 Batman 1:10th Scale DC Direct Resin Statue to commemorate the anniversary, and it will be available for pre-order tomorrow, December 6th at 9am PST / 12pm EST right here at Entertainment Earth at that time. Pricing information wasn’t available at the time of writing.
The McFarlane Toys statue recreates the memorable cover of the Detective Comics #27 issue, where Batman is seen swinging in while holding a suspect precariously by the neck. The statue elevates the original artwork by adding additional details to the faces and outfits of the characters while still keeping the overall feel of the comic design. It also stands 17.5” tall, making this statue quite a display piece. Speaking of display pieces based on iconic Batmam moments…
