While I was at WalMart checking out the 100 Page Giant DC books the other day, I ran across these...Batman Black and White mini figs based on the designs of the statues from the line inspired by the mini-series...
I hadn't heard about this release, and couldn't find anything about it online. I could see no visible numbering on the outside of the packaging that tells you what's inside the blind bag (like say Imaginext does), so I only picked up a few rather than risking getting a bunch of doubles trying to get all 6.
The designs are by Dick Sprang, Darwyn Cooke, Jason Fabok, Patrick Gleeson, Frank Quitely and Amanda Connor. Out of the three I picked up, I got 2 different ones and one double, which my wife claimed for her figure shelf.
since you can't read the names under the figs on the bag back in the pic: going left to right top row it's Cooke, Gleeson and Connor, bottom row-Fabok, Sprang, Quitley
I got the Darwyn Cooke (the one I most wanted) and 2 Jason Fabok's, the Cook fig is on the left, the Fabok on the right...
they stand about 3-4 inches tall.
Aesthetically, I really like the Batman B&W designs, and though I usually don't do the high end stuff for budgetary reasons, the B&W statues were really tempting. These offer a nice affordable alternative to me (they were about $5 a pop). I may pick up a couple more, especially if I can figure out if there is a packaging code on them.
