Zachary Levi’s Shazam! Gets a Gallery Statue From Diamond Select

Shazam! hits theaters in April, and collectibles are starting to pop up based on Billy Batson’s big screen debut. One such collectible is a new Gallery statue from Diamond Select Toys. This entry into their popular and growing line of affordable statues features a likeness of star Zachary Levi, with lightning effect coming out of his chest. It will stand at 9 inches tall. Preorders for this one will open up on Friday, January 25th. Your favorite local comic shop or online retailer should have the link to get one then. Check out the statue below.

They released a new sneak peak at the film yesterday, here that is in case you missed it:

David F. Sandberg (“Annabelle: Creation”) directs New Line Cinema’s “Shazam!,” the origin story that stars Zachary Levi (TV’s “Chuck”) as the titular DC Super Hero, along with Asher Angel (TV’s “Andi Mack”) as Billy Batson, and Mark Strong (the “Kingsman” movies) in the role of Super-Villain Dr. Thaddeus Sivana. Peter Safran (“Aquaman,” “The Conjuring” and “Annabelle” films) serves as the film’s producer.

We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard. Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Strong).
