Batrocitus sits at a genuinely unusual crossroads in the McFarlane DC Multiverse line — a Dark Multiverse amalgam that fuses Batman's iconic silhouette with the rage-powered horror of Red Lantern leader Atrocitus. Characters like this one, born from Scott Snyder's ambitious Dark Nights: Death Metal event, gave McFarlane's sculptors room to push beyond the standard DC roster. The result is a figure that pulls double duty on the shelf: it belongs equally in a McFarlane DC Multiverse run and in a dedicated Red Lantern or Atrocitus collection — and that dual identity is exactly what keeps demand for it steady on the secondary market.
The Dark Nights: Death Metal sub-wave is widely considered one of the more creatively daring groupings McFarlane has produced within the DC Multiverse line. Batrocitus reflects that energy directly: the sculpted armored shoulder pads and gauntlets are cleanly rendered, the Red Lantern chest emblem reads sharply in white against the red-and-black deco, and the overall silhouette is immediately recognizable to anyone familiar with the source material. At 7 inches, the figure scales correctly alongside the broader DC Multiverse collection.
This example is carded in McFarlane's standard window box packaging. The black cardboard outer box carries the Batrocitus character name and Dark Nights: Death Metal sub-line branding on both the front header and side panel. The large front blister window displays the figure and its accessories clearly; the bottom accessory tray window is intact and contents are undisturbed. The back panel features the full-art character render issued with this release. Assessed in-hand at Jay's Toys prior to listing: the card and box are structurally sound, but collectors should note that the front plastic display shows slight scuff and scratch marks, and a small crack is present near the bottom edge of the front bubble. These details are reflected in the condition grade recorded in our product metafields. Please review all images carefully before purchasing.
With 22 points of articulation, this figure offers a meaningful range of dynamic poses that compares favorably to earlier DC collector lines. For carded collectors, the window presentation allows full visibility of the figure and every accessory without requiring the package to be opened. For openers, the included accessories give real display options beyond a basic standing pose.
Secondary market availability on Batrocitus is thinner than mainline Batman releases — the character's niche appeal works in its favor for long-term collectibility. Stock here is limited.
