90's Batman and More are Back with Eaglemoss Statues
The Batman decades statues continue to release from Eaglemoss as we start in the 70s and end in the 90s. We have already seen statues from 1940, 1950, and 1960 and you can find them located here. In 1970, we continue to stay in the world of the blue, grey, and yellow trimmed design of the batsuit. This color scheme is quite iconic in the Batman world so it is no surprise to see a design from Detective Comic #327. For the 1980s we are still getting the same style as his 70's costume with a little more muscle. He is sporting a batrang in this statue which is a nice touch along with the cap blowing motion. The final one is the 1990 statue and it is personally my favorite of all the Eaglemoss statues we have seen so far. I get a strong Todd McFarlane vibes from the sculpt and color and I really love that about it. The long ears, the spiked cape, and the use of a dark color scheme really brings Batman fans into a darker set of Batman stories. Any of these pieces would be a great comic book companion piece that would enhance any batcave.
All of the Batman Decades Statues from Eaglemoss will be priced at $24.99 and will come with a collectible magazine. Pre-orders are already live and you can find the 1970s costume located here, the 1980s costume located here, and 1990s statue located here.
