Its the con, ebay or here folks! click to enlarge. we do not know which color statue you will win, as the box is sealed.....on ebay you'll be paying twice or even three times what its worth..maybe more.

There are thousands of fans on here everyday reading and hanging out....so why should we send this wicked figure to you? Just post your answers or email them to me at matt@legionsofgotham.orgPlease don't forget to thank Itchy Greek and Mattel for being so cool to the fans. I look forward to hearing your answers.

This figure is so awesome looking. I wanted to go to SDCC so bad, but as luck would have it, my car went and I had to buy another one. And with what money you ask? With my savings on my trip to California for Comic Con. Since I can't go to there and try to get one, this would be an amazing alternative. Thanks LOG, Mattel, and Itchy Greek for the chance!!!

about that, here i go:
i would LOVE a catwoman figure. im too young to go to comic con and i really want a catwoman figure cause i want to have the whole the batman rogue collection. for me catwoman is a MUST HAVE. shes my all time favorite character on the show! you wont find a bigger the batman catwoman fan. you can ask anybody who knows me! i love the design, the voice and the chemistry between her and batman. i loved her first episode, her second, her comic issue and i am just waiting to see her on saturday cause i hear shes GREAT!! i just must have her, i dont think selina will do. if i win i'll be too happy.
and i cant buy her on ebay, i just dont have enough money.

Firstly, thanks so much, Inside Traitor and Itchy Greek for this chance. It's really cool of you guys to do this for us. Now as to why I think I should get this figure...well, I almost made it to SDCC. I may have secured one of these pieces for myself if I had gone, but a situation came up and knocked down my plans. So I would really love to be able to get one of these still, and it would be an honor to be lucky enough to recieve one from Mattel, a company which has come leaps and bounds in the way of pleasing collectors and kids. I've never scored anything exclusive, and I would consider myself extremely lucky if I were to get one. As always, I continue to support Mattel in their Bat-merchandising and tremendous efforts to reach out to the Bat-fans with this kind of benevolence.

First off, of course big thanks to Itchy Greek and Inside Traitor for the opportunity,I would like to win this awesome figure for my 7 year old cousin because she loves The Batman cartoon and toys and the only other alternative would be Ebay, I live in Miami,FL and cannot afford to make the trip to SDCC or what people are asking for her on Ebay. Thanks Matt.

I would say that if I were lucky enough to win this version of Selina she would immediately become the centerpiece of my collection. Ever since IT and IG (thanks guys) previewed this exclusive in LOG months ago I have been obsessed with the notion of adding her to my collection. Because of job and family responsibilities I cannot attend any of the conventions, and, like many of the members of this board, paying the inflated prices on eBay are out of the question. This figure would command a huge presence in my display; because of the ultra-cool box I would need to design lighting to take advantage of the window-box effect the packaging creates. Finally, this also needs to be said: no matter how high the secondary market goes for this exclusive, I would never EVER sell it - I wonder how many of the convention attendees will buy the figure for resale only? For me, this piece would be untouchable.

[shadow=red,left,300] Many, many thanks to Itchy Greek and Matt for the opportunity. My chances of attending a con to obtain one of these beauties is zero to none. As a fan of the cartoon and the line of figures based on them, I would love to add her to my collection. Come on, Batman's rogue gallery isn't complete without this feline fatale in the mix.[/shadow]

I collect The Batman figures. I get the canon figures if you will, meaning Batman and the villians. Without this cool Catwoman my collection won't be complete. Even if I had the money to go to SDCC I couldn't due to work. We are shorthanded at work and vacation slots are hard to arrange. The reason I do what I do is because of Batman. I help people who need help and go after the ones who hurt others. Here's a big THANKS to Itchy Geek and Mattel for everything you do for us!

i know winning this free SDCC catwoman figure would be one in a million... hmmm... make that one in a BILLION... but still, im taking my chances and hoping that i get to win this figure...
so, you're asking why i deserve to win this figure, here are the reasons:
- i live in the PHILIPPINES, there is no chance in H*LL that i'll be able to go to any conventions there in the U.S. - i dont have enough money to purchase it on Ebay... i dont like paying for it 2x or 3x its original price... - the batman figures haven't reached or shores yet... - i rarely win anything...
please let me win this catwoman figure... pls...

Three words,my oldest daughter.Raevyn had laid claim to Catwoman after seeing Halle beri's version(BTW wasn't too bad,after all I had a crush on all the incarnations of Catwoman,even Eartha Kitts rendition(which Berri's was alot like) So now to pass on the torch of Bat-mania to the next gen I believe this figure will do it.

Ok first off Many Thanks to LOG Matt and the Greek for the shot at this exclusive. It all started in 1975 Batman came into my life and the addiction started. Batman and his cast of characters stayed with me right into adulthood. Batman even shaped my career choice law enforcment. I have spent untold amounts of money collecting all my pocketbook can stand. I live on the east coast and could never afford the trip to the con on my salary. The reason I would most love to have this Catwoman is my 4yr old son who is dedicated to getting everything The Batman TV show has to offer would be thrilled to add this to his collection. Thanks again for the chance and good luck to all the faithful LOG folks

Despite the fact that I live in Southern California, I won't be able to attend the ComicCon this year either. In some ways I wonder if that's worse than the guys that live on the other side of the world since I am so close and actually thought I was going to attend.
However, it turns out that Saturday is the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince which is like Christmas day for my wife. Imagine how we all feel about Batman and that is my wife with the Harry Potter world. Obviously, I am into it also so I am not completely devestated, but I am bummed that I will be missing out on ComicCon and the opportunity to get this wonderful Catwoman exclusive figure.
I think I should win the figure because I am such a fantastic husband and am willing to sacrifice my enjoyment at ComicCon so that my wife can throughly enjoy her next to last Harry Potter release day. The chance of getting this figure was one of the primary reasons that I was planning on attending the Con. Honestly, why should I be penalized because Scholastic scheduled a terrible release date. lol.
In all seriousness, thanks very much to Itchy Greek and Mattell for making this giveaway possible and of course, once again a huge thanks to Matt for making Legions of Gotham the best place for the Batman Community on the net!

First, a huge thanks to Itchy and Mattel!
The reason I want that figure is simple. It is, in my opinion, the best looking figure in the 'The Batman' line. Even the packaging looks great! I'm an opener but I think I'd leave that one packaged. Without this figure, there will be a big hole in my collection.
Lastly, a huge thanks to Matt for helping us get a chance at this exclusive and for putting together this Bat-community!

Thanks Matt and Itchy Greek. I want this figure because it's one of the best looking figures of The Batman toy line. I live all the way in El Paso and there was no way I could make the SDCC. I'm truly thankful for this oppurtunity you gave us and no collection would be complete without a Catwoman figure.

Why i should win this figure...i think everyone here deserves a con exclusiive...we are all hard core bat fans and its hard to say why one person desrves this...as for me...i take pride in my collection and this would look prime in my display with the rest of my rouges for THE BATMAN...but that still doesnt answer why...i dont have a total answer why i deserve this mre than anyone else...if i win id be very grateful....i thank Matt, Reideen, FB and the rest of the LOG crew for letting me call this place my Batcave...i tell everyone about this site and whn im at work they all wanna look at the pages to see the batfigs and talk...i have raised a bunch of little batfans at the Hard Rock Cafe!

wow.. everyone has a good reason to win this fabulous figure. and thank you Matt (LoG), Itchy Greek, Mattel and everyone else that's involved for giving us the bat fans opportunities to win cool bat stuff. i am glad that mattel is offering catwoman through diamond. however, a masked catwoman is something i would cherish because selina kyle is not selina kyle, but catwoman. her cat mask reveals her true identity. with no inhibitions, she crawls through the night exploiting the powerful to give back to the weak. she's a unique character that i find interesting.
oh and i contribute to the batman merch thread & contest :X :P

Why do I deserve to win over someone else? Honestly, I don't. I'm not a better person than anyone else; I'm not super poor; I'm not super rich. I live 4 hours away from San Diego; but, cannot take the trip. So, this would be my only chance. Others live further away; states away. So, they are at a bigger disadvantage than I am. I'd like to win. But, have absolutely no reason to win, other than my name came up. I'm a huge Batman fan; but, most likely, not any bigger than anyone else. Welp; that is my story, and if I win, cool. If not, I hope the winner keeps it for their personal collection, and doesnt sell it. Your eyes don't deceive you! As part of our ongoing summer giveaway series, your favorite Batman homepage is giving you the chance to win one of the VERY rare and highly sought after The Batman Catwoman Con Exclusive Figures!

We all deserve a Con Exclusive figure as others have said that's a given.I can only give my own reasons for wanting to win one myself. I don't believe it's just because i really want one,that's obvious to everyone.I would like to have one as a reward to myself.The reason i have said a reward is simple.The Batman line is not available in my country,yet through the determination of a fan desperate to own pieces of a Toy Line i have managed to obtain every figure i desire.Even with exchange rates and shipping costs that add a lot of undue expense i have not diverted from my interest in owning representations of some of the best Comic and Animated Art i have ever enjoyed.The Catwoman figure would to me be a fitting reward for dedication and devotion to a line that has been denied to me simply because of my location in another Country. Thanks for the opportunity.

I don't think a single LoGothamite would sell this figure if they won it. Judging by experience, I think anybody here would treasure it. Here's a hero for the thoughtful post.

Thank you Matt, Itchy Greek, and Mattel.
First off I would love to win this figure. But the truth is, if I win I will not be giving it to myself. My little cousin loves all my Batman stuff. She especially loves Catwoman. When she seen this figure she was dying to get it and was telling me that she wanted me to get it for her. I tried to tell her that I couldn't get it but she didn't understand. It'd be great for her to get it.
Thanks again.
