News – New DC Collectibles Arkham Asylum Bane Figure, Arkham Origins Figures and more Revealed!

I know it’s been a couple of days since the reveal of the upcoming DC Collectibles Batman: Arkham Origins figures, but they just revealed a brand new Arkham Asylum Bane figure to be released, so I thought I’d put everything in this one post!

So now that he’s been released, join me as I take a closer look at the DC Signature Collection Black Mask action figure.
