FIRST LOOK: GOTHAM Series 4 Action Figures by Diamond Select Toys (Exclusive)

Diamond Select made their name as action figure creators with the Marvel Select line and a Universal Monsters line that got so large they had to start inventing new original characters to keep up with demand. Every once in a while they’ll pick up a new property like Sin City, but that line was one series and done–when they got the Gotham license, I’m not sure any fans could have guessed it would run for four assortments. But then, the show itself has been getting more colorful and weird, and that’s a best-case scenario for tie-in toys, especially ones that come with diorama bits. We’ve been able to build the front gates of Arkham Asylum, a Crime Alley display, and now, in series 4, a GCPD jail cell.

Like the show last season, series 4 is focused on the rise of the villains. Mr. Freeze isn’t going to want to be sent to DA COOLUH, Azrael can swap heads to reveal his true identity on the show as Theo Galavan, and in Hugo Strange, we get a plastic immortalization of some of the best colorblind casting ever–the character isn’t Asian in the comics, but B.D. Wong embodied the mad doctor to perfection.

Here’s the official release:
