Batman Black and White Statues – Ask DC Collectibles

Posted on August 22, 2013 at 12:44 pm by Joe Moore under DC Toy News

The DC Blog has posted a new Ask DC Collectibles. Today’s Ask DC Collectibles is all about the Batman – Black and White Statues. This year, the line is celebrating the release of its 50th statue. They also give us a look at a Haley Quinn Black and White Statue designed by Bruce Timm.

Read on to check it out.

Welcome back to another edition of Ask DC Collectibles! This month Kevin, Jim and the whole team are celebrating the 50th statue in the bestselling Batman: Black and White line by Sean Murphy. In honor of that milestone, we asked you to ask us about this long running DC Collectibles statue line.

You responded with a bunch of great suggestions as to which artists should be next in line for a Batman Black & White statue. All great choices and to find out which statues are coming next, be sure to keep an eye on the DC Collectibles Facebook page in mid-February as we make our NY Toy Fair announcements.  Some of your suggestions may already be in the process of being sculpted!

The topic of villains and supporting Bat Family characters came up a couple of times.  We have dabbled in the villain world a few times (Catwoman, Penguin, Man-Bat, Bane, etc.) but have focused mainly on Batman to allow for a better comparison of artists’ styles. But hearing from so many fans who like their bad guys in black and white does make us willing to explore our non-Batman side just a little bit more. Take a look at the upcoming Bruce Timm Harley coming out in mid 2014 for an example…

Some of you mentioned reissuing older statues. We’ve done this before with a few of the early statues that are now harder to get (Mike Mignola, Kelley Jones, Frank Miller, etc.). But in order to maintain the uniqueness of the original release, we always change something in the second version. Sometimes it’s a chest emblem switch and sometimes it’s a swapping of the base colors.  As we continue the line, we hope to release more versions of our bestsellers.

Derrick Lau smartly asks, “Will there be any connections between the line and the new [comic book] miniseries?” Since this line was originally spun off from the earlier Black & White comics, there is no way we could overlook the amazing new work being done in the upcoming Batman Black & White series. Look out for our 2015 statue line announcements to see which versions get sculpted.

And now for the big question and our big announcement… Many of you asked about the lack of numbering on our current Batman Black & White statues. We are happy to announce that starting with Nicola Scott’s Batman in January of 2014, Batman Black & White statues will again be numbered. A maximum of 5200 statues will be produced for each artist series and will only be reissued with changes to the figure and base.

Finally, as requested, here is the complete list of Batman Black & Whites as released by DC Direct/DC Collectibles. And check back next Wednesday for a video celebration for the entire line right here on DCComics.com!
