Out of the Box: One:12 Collective Dark Knight Returns Batman

Another review is upon us but this time it's not lego it something much more darker. This time we look at Mezco's 1st new figure for their new One:12 Collective line Dark Knight Returns Batman.


This line is a mix of the detail and realism of 1:6 scale figures like Hot Toys and Sideshow, with compact size of a 6 inch scale. So lets being looking at this figure.



So here he is Dark Knight Returns Batman, and he is amazing the design to best mimic the art work of Frank Miller. He is a mix of plastic and cloth that works really well for the figure. The Boots Gloves and Head are all plastic

. The belt is a soft rubbery material, The suit is self a light flexible cloth, and the Bat emblem is a soft vinyl. On top of all of this e also includes severals accessories.

 Batman Comes with 4 sets of hands, 2 heads, a boot with gun holster, a gun, a grapple hook , a stand , a flight stand arm, and a cape poser (this is new now clue what else to call it). With these pieces and the body that capable of 32 points of articulation  you can make a variety of poses.




Now let talk about the sculpt while there are not a lot of sculpt thats visible because of the cloth the heads are amazing. Both heads are amazing and looks just like Frank Millers art from the book.


Now lets move on to the the flight stand arm.
The arm is fairly standard though the cape stand does attach to the arm.
With both of these you can make dinatic jum pose Because bat only flies in jets.

That just about covers all the features of this figures so let get to the final review.  The figure is self is awesome and 32 points of articulation is hard to beat in any figure. The clothing is also very nice change for some one who would like buy the bigger more expensive 1:6 scale . Now on to some of the cons, The Clothing restricts movement though not a lot. The other con is the new cape stand it's really difficult to attach to the cape and at time I was afraid I would damage the cape. Now  another con may be the price point. To purchase this figure you have to fork out 65 dollars which seems steep however compared to the 1:6 scale that often range from 150 to 500 dollars it is not that bad. So if you are a huge Batman Fan and want an awesome figure this is for you I love it and i'm looking forward to more from this line.
