Gotham needs saving once again as NECA has unveiled a new set of Batman figures inspired by the classic live-action films.

Influenced by classic vintage toy lines, the figure stands 8 inches tall, includes multiple points of articulation, and has a faithfully tailored costume.

NECA – Batman (1989 Film) 8" Clothed Action Figure

"From the iconic 1989 Tim Burton film that defined Batman for a modern generation, NECA presents this clothed Batman action figure featuring the likeness of Michael Keaton. Cloaked in shadow and driven by vengeance, the Batman strikes fear into the hearts of Gotham City's criminal elite."

"Once terrified by bats, and psychologically damaged from the murder of his parents, the wealthy Bruce Wayne channels that fear into his alter ego of Batman, donning the cape and cowl to protect the streets of Gotham from low life criminals and eccentric villains alike. As mob bosses like Carl Grissom rule the city with unchecked power, and the madman known only as The Joker spreads chaos like wildfire, Batman is the last line of defense between Gotham and total collapse."
