When I was young I was obsessed with collecting and reading backissues of Batman Family. This was a deluxe anthology comic series featuring both reprints and new material starring the entire cast of the Batman universe. As a kid with a meager allowance ($1.50 a week) augmented by a paperboy salary (that was equally insignificant), Batman Family was easily the most value for my money. One issue in particular stood out to me. It featured Duela Dent and a band of female "daughters" of the key Batman Villains: Penguin's Daughter, Riddler's Daughter, and the only one with a unique name, Scare-Crone. I loved the idea of a scary female Scarecrow so much. And all these years later that's exactly where my head went when I saw this Aven the Silver Warrior figure from the new Roblox Imagination Collection wave. She looks nothing like the Scare-Crone, in fact she looks more like a Tin-Man and Scarecrow mashup from Wizard of Oz, but either way I think she's awesome. Let's check out Aven below!
Aven comes with a Scythe and a Sword.
These figures have great upper body articulation, but waist-down they're a little lacking.
Her hips are just basic pivot joints with only forward knee-up motion. Her ankles are also just swivel joints that rotate in a circle.
You can still get some basic poses out of her though.
Since I mentioned it so heavily above, I thought I would post a few scans of the Devilish Daughters story from Batman Family #9 from February 1977.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here are all the Roblox Imagination Collection ladies so far. From Left to Right: Digital Artist, Nitr0-Z, Aven, Skylas, Luna, and Vie Battle Witch.
Cheers!
Cool design. I gotta start finding these Roblox figures.
