Looking for a Batman statue? Sure, here’s 47 epic variations. Want a Supergirl statue? Ehhhh, here’s two you can choose from.
It’s not news that female characters in comic book franchises and memorabilia get the short end of the stick—but DC Collectibles is looking to change that with its February 2019 lineup, featuring a Batgirl and Nightwing figure, along with three variations of Harley Quinn. The statues, phenomenally crafted, are limited to 5,000 each and range from $80 to $250. Let’s take a closer look:
DC Bombshells: Harley Quinn Sepia Tone Variant Statue
Based on the best Harley Quinn series of all time, this Bombshell variant is killer. Most female comic book statues and action figures are sexed up to the nth degree, but this one is fun and charming without unnecessarily digging into the sex appeal. Harley can stand strong just as she is, thank you very much. Bombshells is iconic for a multitude of reasons including the fact that Harley and Poison Ivy were made #official instead of dangling their “friendship” on a stick with the “will they won’t they” let’s never DTR this obvi relationship garbage. Bless DC’s Bombshells for bringing in Bi representation and bless DC Collectibles for giving the series its dues with a rad sculpture.
DC Designer Series: Nightwing & Batgirl Statue
Just look at this feisty entanglement. With so many show-stopping details, and beautiful posing, this Nightwing and Batgirl duo statue will look great on any geeky display. We especially love the anti-gravity hair toss.
Harley Quinn Pink, White & Black: Valentine’s Variant Statue
Who needs a romantic tryst on Valentine’s Day when you can have a pink-clad Harley Quinn give you her heart for the occasion? This statue is a super fun depiction of Harley based on the Harley Quinn #1 Rebirth variant cover.
Harley Quinn Red, White & Black Statue
Take her out to the ballgame. This is a super clever design that pays homage to Harley’s love of beating people to death with a baseball bat, transferring her anger to something a little less… homicidal. Though, the baseball is a bomb, so perhaps still homicidal, just a little more fun.
In the words of the wildly problematic but no less loveable Harley Quinn, “You think I’m just a doll. A doll that’s pink and light. A doll that you can arrange any way you like. You’re wrong. What you think of me is only a ghost of time. I am dangerous. And I will show you just how dark I can be.” Finally, we have the comic book statues our female heroes and villains deserve (even the bases are rad!).
