Back in 2015, 3A revealed their first DC Comics figure. The figure was a redesigned, robotic Steel Age Batman. 3A’s Ashley Wood imagined a world where the heroes are gone, and all that is left are robotic versions of DC’s most popular hero. Starting on February 10th, they will be offering an exclusive DC Comics – Steel Age Arctic Batman 1/6 Scale Figure. This re-release features their Batman figure in an all white, arctic style deco. Here are the details from the original Steel Age Batman release:

Personally, I have found the Marvel stuff to be disappointing and far too similar from one figure to the next. I'm still looking forward to the reveal of this, however, even though I'll likely pass on it.
When it comes to armored Batman I like when he looks like a walking batmobile and loathe when he looks like Ironman with a cape. I can't tell where this one falls with me from these shadowy pics.

Cool design. Glad they didn't go with their typical duck feet design on this character, it works for some others, but not this one.

Ashley Wood's stuff is a reminder to me that it takes all kinds to make a market.
I hope Bats doesn't actually plan on wearing that in the arctic regions. Freezing to death would be an embarrassing way for the world's greatest detective to die.

DCC is putting out some crazy statues and whatnot as well so there must be idio... er, people looking to buy such things.
i don't know. weird.
might have been better to armor plate the entire body instead of leather with odd stitching. the boots, what? what is going on with this?
It works for me. I mean, I’m not buying it since it’ll probably break in six places just taking it out of the box, but I like the look

Is anybody buying these things?
While I'm not 100% behind the bright-yellow belt, the rest of the figure gives me the contrast I was looking for.
This just went up for pre-order at BBTS at a $10 discount. Must have switched from Bambaland or BBTS made a deal.
I like the Arctic version but that whole getup looks like it'd be really cumbersome to move around in...
