Brazilian Toy Arts BATGIRL!

 
Brazilian Fast Food Chain Bob's Exclusive DC Toy-Arts do Mini-Figure 2013
 
Brazil seems to have the best fast-food exclusives.  I'm currently hunting down at least three different ones on MercadoLivre.. although "ebay-prices" seem to be a phenomenon on all sorts of commerce sites, not limited to ebay itself... *sigh.*  This current line of five Batman figure is a follow-up to 2010's Justice League (Liga da Justica) which was a rather obvious knock-off of Hot Toys' Cosbabys.  This Batman is a distinct departure from the Cosbaby-style, but there are still more similarities than differences.  These figures are unarticulated 2.75" PVC figures with non-removable bases.  They are cheaply constructed, but don't necessarily look it.  Plus they make a great addition to any super-deformed or vinyl hero collection.  I'm eagerly waiting to get my hands on a Catwoman.  I only wish they made cool fast food exclusives here in the USA.  It's been way too long since I've had a reason to go to Burger King.  Let's check out Batgirl below!

Hot Toys DKR Cosbaby CATWOMAN!


Dark Knight Rises Catwoman Mini-Cosbaby from Hot Toys

There's a new contender for the cutest freakin Catwoman ever!  I thought the DKR Funko Pop would be the reigning champion for the foreseeable future, then along comes this pesky little Cosbaby to mess things up.  When the first DC Cosbabies came out in 2009 (from DC Direct & Hot Toys), I would have wagered some serious money that the line would not be successful at all.  I sneered at them, I mocked them, I ignored them, I paid twice MSRP for them a year later when I reluctantly caved.  They're insanely cute. This new Catwoman is from a new series of 9 Cosbabies from the Nolan film trilogy just hitting the market now. Run out and grab them asap before you end up a victim of the secondary market like I did.  My figure came blindpacked -which seems a little crazy at a $9 pricepoint -but most online toy retailers seem to be offering them individually or in sets of 3 grouped by movie.
