Something that some people may have forgotten about is that NECA has an upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins 1/4 scale action figure! It was on display at the 2014 New York Toy Fair. Now, NECA has taken some really great photos of the Batman: Arkham Origins figure to give everyone a much better look at what they’re getting. It’s hard to tell from the photos, but this figure does have upper torso articulation, like a floating ab joint. The NECA Batman: Arkham Origins 1/4 scale figure is due out in May of 2014.

In what will be the first of many, this is the beginning of NECA Toys making a weapon accessory.
