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.
Check out more pics from the 6-inch figure, 12-inch statue and busts lineup after the break courtesy of Idle Hands.

German statue-makers Muckle Mannequins make some of the most jaw-dropping life-sized figures around. Case in point—this nearly 8-foot tall statue of the Incredible Hulk.
Of course, owning one will set you back a bit—the price after taxes tops out at €2.374,05 or $3256. And that’s before you get involved with shipping. However, they do have an American distributor in Section 9 Entertainment, so we assume it’s possible to get one if you were so inclined.
Section 9 also notes that there is a possibility of variant color versions based on how well this cumbersome statue sells initially. They admit that it’s not going to fit in every room.
Muckle makes life-sized statues, busts and small figures based of a wide range of characters from film and video games, so there’s quite a bit to choose from if the full-scale Hulk doesn’t quite fit your budget.

Titan Merchandise has just revealed the first items in their Dr Who Masterpiece Collection and I think Who fans will definitely be impressed.
Two new 8″ maxi-busts of Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Gillan as his companion Amy Pond are now available for order with an April release date.
Hint: The pre-order price is also listed as £49.99, instead of the regular retail price. They’re also listed as a limited edition, so I’m pretty sure you’re not going to want to wait until April.

I didn’t think it was possible for my love of the Ame Comi line from Diamond to get any deeper, but with the release of these two beauties, I’m completely enamored.
Mera alone is gorgeous, but when you add a super cute goth Raven, I’m over the moon.
I mean, look at the boots! /swoon
