\"Batman:<\/a><\/p>\n

As DC wrestles with the current incarnation of Batman in their cinematic universe, viewers and fans are fondly remembering the weekday afternoon series that brought Batman to life for a generation. Batman: The Animated Series<\/em> is more beloved than ever and collectors are just getting started with the high quality figures and collectibles that are coming to market.<\/p>\n

In 1993, classic toy maker Kenner introduced a 5-inch Batman figure based on the popular animated series. Owners of that figure, and folks who missed out on it, will want to get a hold of this: the Batman: The Animated Series Combat Belt Batman Jumbo Action Figure<\/a>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n

This figure is a bumped-up version of the original Kenner figure, going from 5-inches to 12! This upsized, 1:6 recreation is made from actual 3D scans of the original figure and meticulously captures the spirit of the series. The unique, minimalist aesthetic of Batman: The Animated Series<\/em> comes through, bringing you the Caped Crusader as he lived on our televisions through the 90s and in recent DVD collector sets.<\/p>\n

Gentle Giant is paying homage to Kenner with this figure, but is also paying homage to the nostalgia we feel for a time when the super hero wasn’t so dark and gruesome as he comes across in so many of today’s recent films.
