NECA Reveals Batman Returns 1/4 Scale Catwoman Figure

under DC Toy News

NECA has posted up a preview for a new Batman Returns – Catwoman 1/4 Scale Figure. They have been teasign the appearance of this figure for quite some time, and we finally have our first look. The figure, based on Michelle Pfeiffer’s iconic turn as Selina Kyle, will be a fully articulated figure. She should stand around 16″ to 17″ tall when completed. The Catwoman figure will join their previously released Batman Returns Penguin and 1989 Batman Figures. No details are available at this time, but we’ll be sure to update when new info surfaces. Fans should expect at least a few cool accessories though.

UPDATE:
NECA posted the full reveal with images and info. The Catwoman figure is due for release in October. Here’s the info direct from NECA:

Introducing our second action figure from Batman Returns! We are proud to present this 1/4 scale rendition of Catwoman, featuring the authorized likeness of Michelle Pfeiffer, whose unforgettable performance in the 1992 movie still defines the character.

The figure stands nearly 18″ tall and features 30 points of articulation and a movie-authentic sculpt, detailed down to the loose threads hanging from her homemade costume. Catwoman comes with two interchangeable heads (one calm; one angry, with synthetic hair escaping from a battle damaged mask) and interchangeable hands, plus Taser and whip accessories.

This incredible figure is an absolute must-have for Batman fans!

    I wouldn't get my hopes too high for those and that wait could end up being forever, technically it is possible that we could never get another treatment of 7" DC figures from NECA again. Alternatively we could get many more as long as DC and WB Home Video make another deal with NECA like they did before but even if they do then who's to say which ones will get the 7" treatment. I really wish that Mattel didn't have such a tight deal with DC/WB so NECA could actually do a full series of these DC characters.

    They should at least be able to make the counterparts to what they've already done. Bale Batman for Ledger Joker, Zod or Luthor for Superman, and any of the Burton villains since there will probably never be a Nicholson Joker for the Keaton Batman.

    Seems only fair.

    Wow, she looks amazing! The extra head and accessories are neat bonuses. Ugh, the only thing holding me back is the scale. There is just nowhere to put her. A smaller scale would be much appreciated and wanted!

    Looks great. I don't collect this scale, but I missed out on the Multiverse figure of her, so I might put some serious thought into getting this. A 7" scaled version of this would be great, but I'm not going to count on it.

    They'll likely never get Nicholson to sign off on a figure for this line, but I kinda wonder if they could get the likeness rights for a BDW Harvey Dent figure.

    That's a very particular request. That would be one of those figures that probably confuses the shit out of a lot of people.

    I have batman and penguin,so this is a no brainier. I hope for a returns batman and if hot toys can get jack to sign,why can't Neca. Max would be awesome as well,but I don't see that.

    I hope they jump in to forever and batman and robin,yes they were awful but Neca would do an excellent job with them.

    Between Kenner,Mattel,hot toys and Neca, not one company can get these four movies all in one scale. It freaking kills me that not one company can do it. Just left with holes in every scale. I hope that DC collectibles decides to do the burton and Joel movies.

    Hot Toys can recoup the high cost a lot easier across multiple $250+ figure releases. NECA's would be for a limited single release in the $100 range, and the cost for his likeness rights are too high to justify that. Same thing with Peter Weller for Robocop, it's easier to justify spending more money for a likeness, when the figure is $300.

    I would love for this to be a 12" HT to add to my Keaton display.

    I have to imagine Hot Toys will release a Catwoman at some point. They need to get the last 80 or so Iron Man armors out of the way first.

    Not a request. I'm just wondering how easier it would be for Neca to get BDW's likenes rights for a figure nobody is aksing for, as aposed to Nicholson's likeness rights for a figure a lot of people have been asking for.

    I kinda figured you didn't really mean you wanted it to happen, I meant that were someone to want a BDW Harvey Dent figure then it would be a very particular request. As far as the ease of getting BDW's likeness I imagine he'd be fairly easy to get compared to Nicholson. Did I say easy? I meant comparatively free when you look at Nicholson's price. Plus BDW seems like one of those cool and glad to please the fans kind of guys so I don't think he'd resist having a figure made. Too bad the masses aren't asking for a Harvey Dent figure

    I wish NECA were more willing to do figures of that type. The only way they'd do a Harvey Dent figure is if it's a Two-Face version.

    I hope the put her into the 7 inch line, but include a full unmasked head.

    I will pray to whatever Dark Gods necessary in order to get this thing in the 7" scale.

    This looks like another very nice NECA production. Love the angry sculpt especially!

    Michelle Pfeiffer in 1/4 scale... might bite this time, even though Tweeterhead's 1/6 maquette is sublime.

    I can't wait for next winter when I'm making daily trips to my crappy TRU searching for the 7 inch version of this figure. Those exclusives give me ulcers. :-D

    The figure looks great, as did the proto. I had no doubt we were going to get a great figure. Still waiting for my HT 1/6 Catwoman though lol
