Rarity
Common - This figure appeared in multiple mass-market sets and a polybag, making it very easy to acquire.
Head
Light Nougat with dual-sided expressions: one smirk and one determined look. It features dark brown eyebrows and dark purple/plum lipstick. Headgear is a black motorcycle helmet with a trans-black visor.
Torso
Black torso with dark bluish gray paneling and zipper details. The printing is specific to the tactical biker suit worn in the film. Plain black arms and hands.
Legs
Plain black legs without printing (standard unprinted 4113858 / 3815 parts).
Accessories
Standard motorcycle helmet with trans-black visor. In larger sets, she often includes a silver chain (whip) or a motorcycle.
Color Scheme
Monochromatic black and dark bluish gray, designed to reflect the gritty, realistic aesthetic of the 2022 film.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso (front and back) and head. Printing is sharp but limited to the upper body, typical for lower-priced sets.
Variants
The figure is identical across all sets it appeared in for the 2022 wave. It differs significantly from comic-style Catwoman (sh005) or the 1960s TV version (sh241).
Condition Notes
Visor is prone to surface scratches if stored in a bin with other parts. The black plastic shows fingerprints and 'play wear' scratches more easily than lighter colors.
Estimated Value
Used: $2.00 - $4.00 USD. New: $5.00 - $7.00 USD. Value is low due to high supply.
Price (New)
Available in sets ranging from $3.99 (Polybag) to $49.99 (Batcave).
Compatible Sets
76179 Batman & Selina Kyle Motorcycle Pursuit, 76183 Batcave: The Riddler Face-off, 30444 Catwoman's Cycle (Polybag).
Character Background
Based on Zoë Kravitz's portrayal of Selina Kyle. In this film, she is a cat burglar and nightclub waitress who has not yet fully adopted the 'Catwoman' persona.
Design Notes
The torso print utilizes very fine line work to simulate the texture of a mesh or leather protective motorcycle jacket. The absence of a mask or cat-ear cowl reflects the 'Year One' style of the movie.
Similar Minifigures
sh795 Batman (The Batman), sh794 The Riddler (The Batman), and various versions of Black Widow (Marvel) for the tactical suit aesthetic.
Collectibility
Low to Moderate. While essential for fans of the movie, the figure's extreme availability prevents it from being a high-value investment piece.
History
This represents the first official LEGO minifigure based on the Matt Reeves DC universe, marking a shift toward more realistic, grounded character designs in the DC line.
Interesting Facts
Despite being called 'Catwoman' by fans, the official set names and descriptions frequently refer to her simply as 'Selina Kyle' to match the film's early-career narrative.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on her black motorcycle alongside the 2022 versions of the Batmobile or the Batcycle. Use a dark, urban-style MOC background to match the film's tone.
Modification Potential
The plain black legs make this a great candidate for upgrading with side-printed legs from other themes (like Black Widow or City Police) for a more detailed look.
Overall Assessment
A solid, movie-accurate figure that captures the character's likeness well. While not rare, it is a high-quality representation of a popular character at an affordable price point.
