Black Manta, also known as David Kane does not possess any innate powers. Instead, he uses Atlantean technology supplied by the Ocean Master to provide him with superhuman strength, endurance, durability and a variety of weapons.
The high level of intricate detail featured on this statue makes it look as though Black Manta has just stepped right out of the film. This mercenary comes with a sword in his right hand, LED light-up function on his eyes, a left-hand fist, and an iconic design base.
The Exclusive Version also comes with an attachable left forearm Blade as well as a left open-palm hand.
From Warner Bros. Pictures and director James Wan comes an action-packed adventure that spans the vast, visually breathtaking underwater world of the seven seas, “Aquaman”, starring Jason Momoa in the title role. The film reveals the origin story of half-human, half-Atlantean Arthur Curry and takes him on the journey of his lifetime — one that will not only force him to face who he really is, but to discover if he is worthy of who he was born to be … a king.”
