INART enters the 1/12 scale scene with highly anticipated action figure releases, while McFarlane Toys and DC Super Powers conclude their nostalgic line.
This week marks a significant move for INART as they venture into the 1/12 scale collectibles market. Their teaser for The Batman action figure has culminated in a release date, with pre-orders starting September 4, 2026, as reported by DC Collectors. Known for their 1/6 scale figures, INART is scaling down their meticulous craftsmanship, a move that enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating. This figure, based on Robert Pattinson’s representation, highlights the attention to detail that has become synonymous with the INART brand.
In tandem with this, INART also revealed their plans for a 1/12 scale Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Superman figure, which is now available for pre-order, as per DC Collectors. Scheduled for a January 2027 release, this figure maintains the brand’s high standards with hyper-realistic details and a price tag of $153.99. Collectors of both DC Universe and high-end figures will be keenly interested in these releases.
Further in the realm of DC, McFarlane Toys announced the final wave of their DC Super Powers line. As reported, this 16th wave concludes a nostalgic journey with figures inspired by the original Kenner line from the 1980s. Pre-orders are open exclusively on Entertainment Earth, promising a fitting send-off to a beloved line that has connected collectors with their formative years.
