Coming soon is a new Batarang replica from NECA Toys. The Batarang is based on the prop used in Tim Burton’s Batman (1989). This prop replica made its debut last year, when NECA revealed a number of DC Comics, Game, and Movie prop replicas during Toy Fair 2020. Additional items revealed included a grapnel gun, and a line launcher from the film. The Batarang is a life size replica, and measures about 7.25″ wide, and about 5.25″ tall. It’s constructed of plastic, and folds in three places, using magnets to snap into place. The Batarang will be available at Walmart first between this month and March, and then eventually will come to all retailers. Price hasn’t been released at this time, but I’ve put out a request for info on that.
UPDATE:
I’ve been told the price at Walmart will be $13.96.

At New York Comic-Con 2019, the final two DC Comics vs Dark Horse Comics sets were made available by NECA Toys. While the sets were originally planned as retail releases a few years back, licensing issues popped up, which prevented that from happening. Negotiations with the various rights holders allowed the four planned sets to be released under strict conditions as convention exclusives. The first two sets were available at San Diego Comic-Con 2019 this past Summer. Those sets included Armored Batman vs Predator, and Superman vs Aliens. For NYCC, a Batman vs Joker Alien Set, and a Green Lantern vs Sinestro Corps Predator Set were available.
Today, thanks to our friends at NECA, I’m sharing my photo gallery and review of the Batman vs Joker Alien set. With this set you receive their all-new Batman and a repainted Resurrection Alien Warrior as the Joker Alien. The Batman figure includes a batarang, and an interchangeable hand. After the jump, you can see my thoughts on the set, as well as a full gallery of both figures.
