It’s official, DC Direct’s Blackest Night Wave 5 includes some of The Blot’s favorite action figures of all time. Just look at each figure’s amazing details and "killer" accessories. I really hope DC Direct realizes the popularity of these figures, and decide to continue their Blackest Night line of action figures with at least one or two more waves.
This fifth series of action figures, based on the hugely popular Blackest Night event, includes Nekron, the Lord of the Unliving; Black Lantern Hawkman, the winged warrior who joins the Black Lanterns after falling victim to them; Black Lantern Deadman, the ghost hero who's tormented by voices of the dead; and the previously unseen Black Lantern Batman, who, in death, is as susceptible to the Black Lantern Corps as anyone.
Blackest Night Wave 5 action figures by DC Direct feature multiple points of articulation and come packaged in a 4-color clamshell blister card. Each figure also includes a display base and character-appropriate accessories. Blackest Night Wave 5 is scheduled to go on sale August 4, 2010.
