Batman Black and White 100th Statue by Todd McFarlane

DC Collectibles marks its 100th statue in the Batman: Black and White line with this impressive entry by Todd McFarlane. I’m normally not a big fan of McFarlane, but this Batman statue is tight.

Dark Nights Metal Batman–The Devastator Statue

The Devastator is a character from from the alternate Earth -1 where Bruce Wayne ingests the Doomsday Virus in order to become a creature powerful and smart enough to take on the murderous Superman of that world.

This is an impressive polyresin statue based on Greg Capullo’s art and sculpted by Jason Frailey.

DC Bombshells Batgirl and Supergirl Celebration Statue

I am not sure why DC Collectibles decided to call this Bombshells Batgirl and Supergirl statue a “Celebration Statue.” I’m surprised they didn’t go with “World’s Finest” or some variation on that.

DC Collectibles Cancels Lucha Explosiva! Action Figure Line

DC Collectibles recently sent notices to its direct market customers that it was canceling the previously announced Lucha Explosiva action figure line that mixed DC characters with lucha libre stylings. CBR.com reported it received the following statement from DC on the line’s cancellation.

While the DC ¡Lucha Explosiva! line launched with excitement, we are reevaluating new and exciting ways we can bring the reimaged DC characters to even more fans

It sounds like there was little interest on the direct market for the figure line, leading to its cancellation. That’s too bad; I was really looking forward to those figures.
