After his initial introduction Batman remained a creature of the night until he teamed up with The Boy Wonder. After that his adventures became campier.
The Batman figurine from Dark Horse Deluxe comes in a special metal box with a foam rubber cocoon that holds the figure in place along with its special pin and booklet.
On the front of the box is a full color illustration of Batman as he looked in the 1940-50s. Around the sides of the box are color portraits of other Golden Age DC Comic Book characters.
Two thousand of the Batman figures were made. I have #1,119.
The inside of the lid has foam piece that when place over the interior foam cocoon seals the figure and keeps it safe form damage and moisture.
A small booklet about Batman is included, as is a small Batman pin with eh portrait of Batman on its front.
The figure sits inside a form-fitted clear plastic cocoon cradles in a foam cocoon.
The sculpted figure stands on a circular brown base.
It poses in a typical superhero stance with arms bent at the elbows and fists clenched.
Batman’s cape drapes over his left shoulder and his face beams with a large smile.
The sculpt work gives the impression that the figure was recently chipped out of stone with chisel marks clearly seen.
Coloration is slightly muted with areas of black brushed into the various hues to give them a slightly aged look.
Batman wears his classic costume of gray leotards, a yellow utility belt, a large blue cape and cowl along with blue knee boots and long gloves with three pointed ‘bat’ wings.
The figure is kept stationary by four felt discs on the bottom of the base.
