Let's check out this Rainbow Iridescent DC Artists Alley Catwoman by Sho Murase. This version is exclusive to Books-A-Million (BAM!) and limited to 1500 pieces.

The box is simple and to the point. Sometimes that's all you need. 

Here's Catwoman still being held safely in the plastic insert with the plastic ties. 

Love the color and paint on her. It's so sleek and shiny. It's a bit hard to get good pictures though but looks so nice in person. In different lighting the colors will show a bit differently.

Catwoman is sculpted by Jack Matthews. She stands 6.75" tall. She is also on a black base to keep her steady. 

She stands very sturdy with her whip in hand. 


The quality of the paint and figure has been really top notch so far. 

Love the simplicity of the color palette that Sho Murase used here. You don't always need to be intricate or have a lot of colors. Simple yet effective. Very nice!

Here's is a mini art print of Catwoman which is included with this figure. Very nice touch from DC Collectibles.

Thanks again to DC Collectibles for sending us this sample to review.
