Action figure manufacturer U-P-Finegures (popularly known to collectors as LPZZ) has officially teased their next upcoming release on social media. According to a recent Instagram post from the official account @lpzz_official, the company is diving back into the Rocksteady video game universe with the LPZZ Arkham Knight Catwoman 1/12 scale action figure.
The simple yet exciting social media post caption reads: “Next!? U-P-FINEGURES (LPZZ) 1/12 Catwoman (BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT) Action Figure.”
This announcement signals that Selina Kyle will be joining an increasingly impressive roster of hyper-articulated, premium video game figures from the brand.
Expanding the Arkham Knight Lineup
LPZZ has quickly carved out a massive reputation among premium action figure fans for delivering highly detailed, complex, and meticulously engineered 6-inch scale figures. The company previously made waves in the collecting community with their highly praised releases of Batman (Batsuit V8.04), the Arkham Knight himself (which included interchangeable parts for Red Hood/Jason Todd), and a devastatingly sharp Deathstroke figure.
By adding Catwoman to the mix, LPZZ is building out a comprehensive, premium display universe for fans of the iconic 2015 video game. Her design in Batman: Arkham Knight is widely considered one of the best iterations of the character, balancing her classic sleek, black leather catsuit with a tactical, modern aesthetic featuring detailed zippers, a high collar, and her signature whip and climbing gear.
What Collectors Can Expect
While the teaser post serves primarily as a confirmation of development, we can look to the history of the U-P-Finegures line to project what this release will offer.
Premium Articulation & Clean Aesthetics
Unlike typical mass-market figures, LPZZ focuses heavily on seamless integration of joints and dynamic posing range. Expect Catwoman to feature incredible flexibility to pull off her signature gymnastic and martial arts poses from the game.
Game-Accurate Accessories
Catwoman’s arsenal in the Arkham series is distinct. Collectors can safely look forward to multiple interchangeable hands, her signature leather whip (potentially with a wired variation for dynamic posing), and potentially the iconic bolos she uses to trip up Riddler’s robots or Gotham’s thuggish militia.
High-End Head Sculpts
Previous releases in this line have excelled at character likenesses. Fans can anticipate a highly accurate portrait of Selina Kyle, complete with her signature night-vision goggles that can likely be toggled up onto her forehead or pulled down over her eyes.
The 1/12 scale premium space has been heavily dominated by lines like Mafex and Mezco Toyz. However, LPZZ has consistently proven that they can offer superior engineering, complex swap-out armor pieces, and incredible shelf presence at a competitive price point, making this reveal a massive win for DC collectors.
No concrete release date, pre-order window, or pricing structure has been announced by U-P-Finegures just yet. However, given how quickly their previous Arkham Knight figures sold out across major import toy retailers, fans will want to keep a very close eye on pre-order drops over the coming months. Stay tuned to DC Collectors as we continue to track this exciting release.
