DC Comics x Medicom Batman: The Animated Series 400% & 1000% Be@rbrick

Medicom continues its celebration of DC Comics’ 75th Anniversary with the release of a 400% and 1000% Batman Be@rbrick made in the style of the hit television show Batman: The Animated Series. Batman: TAS is considered to be one of, if not the, greatest super hero cartoons ever produced, and Medicom did a great job representing its source material. While The Blot really likes this black and grey Batman Be@rbrick, I think Medicom did a much better job with their previously released Batman: TAS 100% Kubrick.

The 400% Batman: TAS Be@rbrick stands approximately 11 inches tall and retails for around $85, while the 1000% Batman: TAS Be@rbrick stands approximately 27 inches tall and retails for around $360.

"WTF? FTW!" Custom 8 Inch Dunny by Joe Ledbtter

WTF? FTW! Custom 8 Inch Dunny by Joe Ledbetter

Check out this awesome hand painted 8” Dunny entitled “WTF? FTW!” by Joe Ledbetter. Joe first unveiled this awesome custom figure Monday via Twitter, and it was purchased for $1,200 shortly thereafter.

I’m not sure what I like about this Dunny more, the fact that he’s only wearing one Nike sneaker or the fat stack of cash coming out of the back of his underwar. The figure also included Joe’s original sketch, which is pretty cool in its own right. I don’t know who picked up this killer piece, but color me jealous!
