As Aquaman’s arch-nemesis, Black Manta brings terror upon the Kingdom of Atlantis at every opportunity. While the DC super-villain’s true identity was long a mystery, concealed by his imposing, infamous helmet, audiences now know Black Manta better thanks to the Aquaman films. David Kane becomes Black Manta to seek revenge against Arthur Curry and the depths of his animosity toward Aquaman only deepen as they continue to cross paths.
Inspired by the latest DC film, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, the Black Manta 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure by Hot Toys brings the villain’s impressive on-screen appearance to life. The collectible figure is expertly crafted and features a newly crafted metallic silver Black Manta helmet with red LED light-up function, plus interchangeable battle-damaged eyes.
Black Manta’s iconic suit is skillfully tailored using specialized material that enhances the figure’s articulation range, optimizing the potential for endless posing. In addition, the Black Manta figure comes with an LED-lighted accelerator backpack, an additional detail to round out the figure’s screen-accurate black and silver armor. The figure also comes equipped with a splittable trident in black, plus an additional trident in translucent green to recreate Black Manta’s connection to ancient Atlantean forces of evil. Interchangeable hands and a themed base for display complete the figure’s formidable setup.

Black Manta finds himself at the crossroads of good and evil as Devil Ray’s secret origin and Black Manta’s own past collide and erupt! Will Black Manta finally accept his legacy of villainy…and maybe even make the choice to overcome it? Or will Devil Ray’s plans quite literally rip apart not just the seven seas, but the whole world?
Devil Ray has his sights set on Atlantis, and he races to put his grand plans into motion before Black Manta can unlock the secrets of the mysterious and deadly orichalcum metal. Meanwhile, Torrid forms an uneasy alliance with Manta and Gallous the Goat following their throwdown in Ethiopian airspace. But perhaps her reticence is not unfounded, as Manta’s villainous nature emerges on their quest for the truth.

But it soon becomes clear that the tragedy was not just a single bad actor, but the beginnings of a much larger and more dangerous chain reaction…and the heart of an explosive Atlantean conspiracy! If Arthur’s not careful, the secrets he’s keeping—from Mera, Tula, Tempest, Atlantis, the surface, and even Jackson—could cause a rift from which the Aquamen might never recover!
