Mondo’s new Batman: The Animated Series Phantasm figurine rules
Mondo, the legendary creator of tantalizing objects, released its next 1/6th-scale figurine in honor of the 30th Anniversary of Batman: The Animated Series and it’s the Phantasm. And boy does it look like an animation cell come to life, with a “billowing” and tattered cape painted dark on the inside and light on the outside, reproducing the villain’s faux-ghostly form to a T.
Phantasm was one of the few original villains that the creators had created. Batman: The Animated Series team, appearing in the series’ animated theatrical feature Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, which was produced concurrently with the 20-episode second season of the surprise hit show — a working sprint that writer Paul Dini recalls as exhausting.
However, the Phantasm is still a good movie. (Spoiler for an old 30 year-old film) her secret identity as Bruce Wayne’s fiancée Andrea Beaumont, has become one of the most memorable villains of the Animation Series. One of the most unique: A character that is so well suited to the tale of Mask of Phantasm that she’s barely been used in anything else. It’s nice to see her get a Mondo figure, and even nicer to see a “Swappable Andrea Torso” in the figure’s accessories.
It’s a 12 inch tall figure (about 30 centimeters), and it will cost you a staggering $210. It’s expected to ship in February 2024, so that’s just in time to show your sweetie that, unlike Batman, you’d still love them if they were secretly a supervillain. Mondoshop.com has preorders available and they will stay open until Sep. 25, 11:58 AM Central Time.
