Pictures of upcoming figures and busts from The Dark Knight Rises DC Direct lineup have made their way out of the UK Toy Fair this week, some of which give us a better look at that Catwoman costume that everyone has made such a fuss about. And by “better look” I mean a pretty close-up look at her butt.

Who doesn’t want to own a Batmobile? Even people without an affinity for Batman are drawn to the car with it’s James Bond-like gadgets and tricks. DC Comics gave the green light for licensed replicas a while ago, and Firebox now has them for sale. Sure, you need a Bruce Wayne sized wallet to afford it, but for good reason!
Unlike other TV/movie replicas the Batmobile is more than a prop, it’s a fully operational, road-worthy car with all the bells and whistles, including gauges, push-button ignition and working lights. This crime-fighting classic even comes with 21st century features such as a dash-mounted DVD player, electric actuators that open the hood and trunk, and a six speaker sound system. Dancing the Batusi as you pull up outside comic book conventions has never been easier!
