Killer Moth action figures are here!

Not everything about 2020 is terrible, because this is the year that we got, not one, but TWO awesome Killer Moth action figures! This first figure is part of Spinmaster's the Caped Crusader: Creature Chaos series.


His design is clearly based on Killer Moth's costume as seen in the issues of Booster Gold - you can tell by the "high-tech" helmet, but at least he's sporting his classic color-scheme, right now to the striped pants!


This 4" figure is very articulated and comes with three "secret" items - a gun, a satchel of loot and a batarang (which he must have taken from Batman).


Inside the packaging is a nice illustration of Killer Moth battling Damian Wayne and a sheet that shows all of the characters and their accessories available in the wave.


The second Killer Moth figure is from the Mattel's Imaginext line. This Killer Moth might be one of the best representations of the character yet!! (only matched by the DC Universe classics 6" figure)

 

This 2" figure comes from the Imaginext DC Super Friends line, but don't be fooled by the line's childish designs, this is the best DC Superhero toy line out there. The character selection is very deep and most of the versions are quite accurate to their comic-book counterparts. 


This figure from series 7 comes in a "blind bag", which means you aren't supposed to know which figure you are going to get. But you can feel for Killer Moth's wings, gun and antennae pretty easily. Or you can slide the figure around until you see a flash of orange through the bag's "breathe hole". Or if that's still too hard for you, just look for the number "02" stamped on the upper left hand top of the bag.


As someone who has wanted small-scale Killer Moth action figures for decades, I am super-pleased by both of these amazing additions to my Killer Moth collection! Good luck finding them for yourself!
