[@Langford-Artist]

This man is holding the best batman figure in his hand is like ehh I don't like it

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+Langford_artist you sound like a smart person...

[@MutatedGuy]

This mezco line is the most exciting figures in a while.

[@morganmosley5136]

You can say that again!

[@k.bermejo7334]

This mezco line is the most exciting figures in a while. :D

[@themoosefigs3331]

I actually just purchased the Black and Grey version from a local comic shop about a week and a half ago. I love it to death.

[@nlc_productions7594]

Jabba the Hutt

[@k.bermejo7334]

Haha cool :D

[@elbarno7124]

Damn I love ur figs lol.Didnt expect to see u here

[@hottflames9164]

TheMooseFigs what did you pay?

[@Alec-sn8on]

Mezco 1:12 are hands down the best 6 inch figures on the market. I'm not sure if I'd consider Storm Collectibles a 6 inch figure but they are a very close second. Just wish they would expand their line outside of video game/fighting characters. Awesome and honest review btw! :)

[@vidtracey]

I'm so disappointed that you didn't love this figure more! Ever since I've picked up this figure, I've been obsessive about this line and sold all my other collections to focus on one:12. To get what is basically a 6" hot toy for $65-80, will make this line very sought after in years to come

[@vidtracey]

And you never showed the beautiful collector friendly packaging it come in too! Lol

[@AnthonysCustoms]

well, my reviews are objective rather than biased/obsessive. The anatomy on just about every figure in this line beside the DKR Batman is terrible.

[@vidtracey]

AnthonysCustoms what??? No way man! They are all amazing! All these comments below can't be wrong! But I understand it's a personal thing, I just hoped another one of my favourite reviewers would like them and review more of them

[@AnthonysCustoms]

anatomy isnt a personal thing. the line has terrible anatomy for most of the figures that arent meant to look like frank millers stylized batman.

[@vidtracey]

AnthonysCustoms give me an example of this terrible anatomy on other figures

[@RogerSanderson]

I don't mind the cloth thing in a sense that the newer costumes have that deep texture look. Though my thing with cloth is that it wears & starts ripping.

[@cromarlimo7979]

lol, love the poses at the end xDDD

[@GhostOfSomeonesPast]

That pic of him WTFing at the cape wires got me lol! Awesome review as always man :D

[@k.bermejo7334]

Haha yeah xD

[@ryanginn3288]

Which Batman figure is the extra one that you put in the end.

[@thatstopmotioner8119]

Hi, could you repaint the eyes on a Sh figuarts so it is looking straight and not to the right

[@Fingfangboom]

What’s the best dark knight returns figure I can buy

[@fuse4life]

I completely agree with your views. I can respect Mezco's One 12 Collective line from a technical aspect, but the soft goods stuff tends to look off in this scale most of the time. Oddly enough, the one exception to this would be their upcoming Space Ghost figure which I think looks like their best figure to date. Just the way he blends some more accurate anatomy with more natural looking soft goods into his design mixed with the butt load of effect parts he comes with, I think he looks amazing from what they've shown. I really hope the final product turns out well.

[@rubovilla7268]

hey anthony, im trying to make a john constantine mezco one 12 custom figure, any ideas?

[@gabrielgonzalezdominguez6746]

Hey guys i love this figure. Do you know where i can buy it for a normal prize? I don't have the money for the crazy prize I see on Ebay.

[@Trezzpops]

The corners of the cape also allow it to hang and flow more naturally, it really is amazing in person. I was disappointed you didn't note the musculature of the sculpt under the fabric, i.e the rib cage and thighs. I do hope Mezco give the upcoming figures in the line a greater range of motion in the ankle pivot though.

[@EchoesonMars]

when did he have the pistol in the comic

[@Manuel-kx4qt]

This figure is so dope

[@Magikknight76]

Great review Anthony!!! I actually have the NYCC exclusive battle damaged version and I love it. Your right about the cloth being a pain in the ass but the quality of the figure is so good I can look past it.

[@zachdewitt7911]

Btw, it's textured like that to afford full articulation, and it's next to impossible to notice in person.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

+Zach DeWitt what?

[@k.bermejo7334]

It's easy to understand Anthony, just read...

[@zachdewitt7911]

AnthonysCustoms notice that the texture is like parallel, horizontal lines. That's to make it more durable with the articulation

[@davidmarrero9608]

Great review Anthony also that's the thing with some of the figures especially this batman since all the dark knight ones (black, light blue and this dark blue along with the two pack battle damaged one) had issues with posing due to the cloth but seeing how the figures were the first of the line it's no surprise the cloth have that look to it some have improved it. All in all like you said it's on the eyes the beholder when it comes to these figures I think it's more of the idea of it having a mini hot toys for people who don't have space for them. Which is what Mezco said making a figure on hit toys quality being half the cost which is a smart idea and other companies as starting to follow like comicave studios shos they are making figures of suicide squad in soft goods.

[@k.bermejo7334]

I agree :D

[@robertsherwin4657]

How many were made?

[@devinweathers7520]

I'll get three use one of them for customized and add storm collectibles

[@danielcraig9666]

Are you going to get some of the Marvel One:12 figures?

[@davidmarrero9608]

I think you weren't paying attention fully to the review or even watch it. He didn't buy the batman one:12 figure so he will most like not pick up any of the marvel ones. It's due to personal choice like he said in the review he isn't a fan of the cloth or cares for it since he would rather have the figure's articulation not hindered by the cloth. That doesn't mean he won't review another Mezco one:12 in the future that all depends if someone sends him those to review.

[@marvelsomething282]

I love the display base!

[@aquin3066]

I really like the DKR Batman. He just looks so fucking pissed the whole time.

[@k.bermejo7334]

Haha yeah :D

[@darthamrel3052]

I have the black and gray version, it's cool but that cape display stand is a nightmare.

[@TechChucker]

There's a few of those one:12 Mezco figures I've been thinking about getting, but that cloth look is a little off putting to me. I think it's not as noticeable on the darker materials. On this one it's really noticeable. I don't think i could get past it. Nice review.

[@AnthonysCustoms]

thanks

[@vitoblue455]

I actually like it I hope to pick it up soon..

[@Justmenesto2]

Glad to know your thoughts at last lol.

[@tamagokun]

Agreed about the fabric bits. I prefer hard materials.

[@k.bermejo7334]

Me too :D

[@aarishsiddiqui7313]

Super dope figure but I think sovereign knight better proportions look odd on here but still great

[@GodParticleZero]

I think this figure is amazing. I have 3 of the 4 versions haha. The textured suit doesn't bother me since it's not noticeable at normal viewing distances

[@k.bermejo7334]

Haha xD

[@k.bermejo7334]

Man, Hot Toys quality(kinda) on a One:12th scale; I love Mezco.

[@harryosborn5647]

Could You Review Dc Collectibles Blueline Batman And Superman Figures

[@mattgaillard5370]

Love these figures.

[@fdr2551]

great review man

[@andresrivera7585]

where do you get that figure bro ? good video :v/

[@CybermanBill]

Andy Rivera he said somebody sent it to him to review. He doesn't own it!

[@CybermanBill]

Andy Rivera also, originally u could get it at Big Bad toy store or Entertainment Earth. Now, u can basically only get it on the second hand market like eBay!

[@andresrivera7585]

thanks bro 😄😄😛

[@MalikG01]

Awesome review!

[@jacobwilson2798]

I prefer the Mattel version. Although this one is cool, I don't know if I would ever pick any of these up though. Awesome review.

[@k.bermejo7334]

Same :D

[@thebatman7344]

bruh

[@thebatman7344]

this looks alot cooler alot more articulation alot more accesories cloth cape and looks better

[@zachdewitt7911]

YESSSS!!!! FINALLY!

[@plasticweapon]

mezco dark knight returns batman is my new hero.

[@juliankwsuper]

batman use that sniper rifle as a grapnel hook to cross to a building.

[@theepoopydoodoo]

The thing I hate about this figure is the proportions, the shoulders look too way too wide. To me the ribs and waist look to thin and the legs look too thick with the knees looking kind of knobby. For me the awkward proportions make it a total pass for me

[@theepoopydoodoo]

Also I know it's based on the artwork of the formerly masterful Frank Miller but it's just got really awkward proportions.

[@muisverriet]

That's Frank Miller artwork for ya.

[@theepoopydoodoo]

Actually no Frank Miller used to be masterful and his proportions didn't used to be terrible. TDKR Batman is a wall he's huge and I don't think this figure captures that well. The Face sculpt is great but I really don't like the body.

[@k.bermejo7334]

Yeah :')

[@momo.maru-kun]

JigglyChocolateman because it was based on millers art

[@ziggylarkdust]

I think since this figure mezco has done a better job with the cloth materials. I mean just look at Daredevil and Cap

[@k.bermejo7334]

Yeah :D

[@plastic.thunder3274]

Hey Anthony Do you do commissions if you do how do we get in touch with you? Do you got an Instagram?

[@k.bermejo7334]

Well, he got twitter, Facebook, you can see in the description of his vids :D

[@sketchalexander]

Thank you for a honest review of the figure Anthony. I passed on this figure because of the same reasons you don't like it. But I might change my mind if Mezco ever makes a Marvel comics Black Panther figure just because I'm a huge BP fan.

[@Trezzpops]

I'm hanging out for Mezco Black Panter and Doctor Doom!! I own this figure he's reviewed and it's by far my favorite out of my whole collection, Mezco One 12 are next level

[@randallyoung5629]

Me seeing This version of batman: ok what...the fump

[@soylentcompany5235]

Batman is using guns :D ??

[@k.bermejo7334]

I think so, but I hope not directly.

[@fefe4212]

Get one put a 60s batman head

[@muisverriet]

That does not fit with the style of the figure.

[@k.bermejo7334]

Lol yeah

[@J0r-El]

You're not a fan of the style? Wow. I love them. You gave back the Puerto Rico ComicCon version? Are you aware how much this is worth?! I find your reaction to them very surprising, but I respect your opinion. But your opinion is just as jaw-dropping as this masterpiece!

[@AnthonysCustoms]

Gave back? I borrowed these to review them. I don't like clothes on my figures.

[@J0r-El]

@@AnthonysCustoms oh ok, wow, I didn't know. Interesting, because I always thought clothes on action figures is pretty cool. I still like the full on plastic approach.

[@jaedyncartagena7805]

can I have it

[@k.bermejo7334]

Lol, no.

[@theidiotsbrotherhood4811]

He s

[@SrHide-iz7pf]

somebody has "undressed" this figure? maybe can be painted, if the figure is good under
