Batman is the first in a new line of stylized vinyl toys that will be called UNI-FORMZ, inspired by the designer toy phenomenon!
DC Direct has joined forces with popular contemporary toy designer Monster 5 to create this unique version of Batman. This bold new take on the Caped Crusader is a must-have for collectors of contemporary toy design, as well as traditional fans of Batman!
There will be three different styles of Batman: the "Modern Batman" in his black costume, a variant version in the "Classic Blue and Gray Costume", and an ultra-stylized variant "Armored Batman" version!
These designer toys are limited! Once they are sold out, DC Direct will not produce these styles again! In keeping with the tradition of designer toys, rarity of certain incarnations are the norm. The Batman variants ( "Classic"and "Armored" ) will be produced in far lower quantities.
The line of UNI-FORMZ is reported to continue with original designs for Superman, Green Lantern, and other favorite DC Universe characters.
These limited-edition vinyl UNI-FORMZ Batman figures feature 12 points of articulation, stands approximately 8"tall, and is packaged in a deluxe 4-color window box. Plus, they have a "Release Date" to go on sale June 3rd, 2009.
