The collectible aisle Walmart is about to get even bigger with the addition of new Batman: Black and White figures from DC Collectibles. The scaled-down versions of the DC statues will be sold in Walmart stores as 4-inch scale mini-figures. This new lineup transforms the brand’s 9-inch figures with new designs from renowned artists, including Jim Lee, Bruce Timm, Amanda Conner, and Darwyn Cooke.
“Batman: Black and White is DC Collectibles’ longest-running statue line and continues to be one of our best-sellers,” Jim Fletcher, executive creative director at DC Collectibles, says in a statement. “The line allows us to work with a wide array of talented artists from different industries, and we’re really excited to revisit our favorite designs in this all-new 4-inch scale!”
Each Walmart Batman: Black and White figure comes in an exclusive blind bag besides DC’s Comic Giants section. The company will release six new figures monthly, so fans can collect all their favorite DC Batman characters.
