What's Your Obsession

The first variant in the Kotobukiya DC line of statues, Batgirl Black costume edition! It’s set to be released in December of this year.

This is getting kinda played out, DC Direct is releasing yet another wave of Ame-Comi figures that are simple repaints of earlier versions, the first Batgirl and the second Catwoman. They’re coming in mid-June with a MSRP of $60.

Not too much unexpected news on the Kotobukiya front but solid efforts all around.
