McFarlane Reveals Scarecrow (Batman Begins) Red Platinum Edition

A Crisis is coming upon the DC Multiverse but that is not stopping McFarlane Toys as they debut some brand new DC Comics figures 

In Batman Begins (2005), Dr. Jonathan Crane, aka Scarecrow, is portrayed by Cillian Murphy and is the first villain the Bat takes on. Crane merges psychological horror as a real-world menace as a corrupt psychiatrist working out of Arkham Asylum. Working secretly with Ra's al Ghul and the League of Shadows, he created a fear-inducing toxin that causes terrifying hallucinations. When he puts his mask on, he becomes Scarecrow, and he plans to unleash mass fear across Gotham. Ra's al Ghul plans to use the chaos of Cranes attached to clean up the filth that plagues it unleash Batman has something to say about that. McFarlane Toys has unveiled that a new version of the Batman Begin Scarecrow will be released as part of their new Platinum Edition program. 

The Red Platinum Edition line is a series of exclusive characters that are offered as special releases at stores. This means that if a retailer gets a box of new DC Multiverse figures, then Scarecrow could be one of the figures as they are randomly included. This keeps the toy hunt alive for DC Comics fans and will be found released alongside the Batman Begins, Batman 1989, and (Target Exclusive) Fear Toxin figures, which are already in stores now.
