Catwoman gets re-imagined by Kingdom Hearts director Tetsuya Nomura

To match his earlier neogoth vampire Batman revision.

Kingdom Hearts director and Final Fantasy character designer Tetsuya Nomura has re-imagined Catwoman as some sort of cybernetic transformer.

Looking like a lost boss character in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Nomura's take on Catwoman is all metallic surfaces and sharp edges with some sort of aubergine-like material sexing up the bits between her spiky armour. Here's some pics via GameInformer.

How long until someone makes the inevitable Final Fantasy XV road trip meme with this model?

Nomura's Catwoman is part of an upcoming line of Square Enix and DC Comics-produced collectible figurines called the Variant Play Arts Kai series. This new design debuted earlier today at New York City Comic-Con.

Back in July Nomura gave us his neogoth interpretation of Batman. I know these two have had their ups and downs, but you've got to admit they make a cute couple.

No details on the pricing or availability of Nomura's Catwoman figurine have been revealed at this time.

And for comparison, here's Nomura's take on the Dark Knight.
