I'm honestly surprised that mezco hasn't switched to wire cape yet. Everybody I see talk about a cape with their figures says that they are going to switch to a wire cape. Love the review! Love the photos and inspiration!! DG BG DYW!
@@Friendly_Neighborhood_Edgelord i haven’t had the best experience with them, for examples when i got mezco magneto i barely even moved the cape and the wire inside cut through the cape. Now my figure has a wire sticking out of the cape. Also normal capes just drape better over the figure and flow naturally.
Absolutely love your review! Complete and precise. Thanks for being so chill in demonstrating articulation and suit malleability, other reviewers cringed! Excellent coverage brother. Thanks.
I like your reviews. They're not long-winded. Actually very helpful for me to making a decision whether to buy or not. I was teetering between this one or the Mezco BM Ascending Bats. You sold me on this one. Thanks, bro!
That's the one Mezco Batman I've got and the one that I consider to be the most definitive of the bunch. That being said though, I think Mezco has some kind of hard on for making Batmen because they make way too many different variations.. Lol.
@@tacituscornwall918 My copy is 2nd hand, but The body suit starts to look a bit see through. But you wont notice it in low light & a few far distance during photo shoots.
Definitely worth picking up one. If you have any mezco batman to choose from, pick this one! Like my man says, the cloth used on this suit is much more flexible then the onix edition and looks and poses the best.
Awesome video again man! First you got me hooked one the "punk" joker! I saw him at my comic book shop so thanks to you I bought him. Then after this vid, I just had to get this batman! I've had nearly hundreds of batman or joker figured over the years and these two are the best I've ever owned! They are definitely meant to be posed and take pics of. Love them!! So Thank you THANK YOU! For helping introducing me to these badasses! One negative note, I do wish this one had a wired cape because the posing wires he comes with suck! I still don't understand how to use them. Do you know where to buy backgrounds or props to pose with the figures?
Just got mine yesterday! It's such a great figure and I love that they threw in the Bruce head even though it didn't show in the promo pics. I really love your reviews, especially when it comes to the articulation. I'm scared to death to push my figures' articulation to the limit, then I see you on here bending, twisting, etc and I feel much better lol!
man this is a fantastic review. I love how you compared it with just about everything. scaling is a big thing with me. I hope the ML 80 year thor we get is finally in scale
I got to help my man out here. Yeah, if you love the new 52 look, this is the batman you need. If you are going to drop $25-30 for a DC direct batman figure, save that cash and go for this $80 Mezco. In my opinion, 100% worth it. It's like owning an awesome posable piece of art!
Agreed! I've bought nearly a hundred batman figures over the years and this one is my favorite! I can't stop posing and taking pics of him. Thanks to this man for getting me hooked on the DC mezco brand
That's a awesome picture of Batman pulling joker by his hair after an ass whooping running into his best enemy in my opinion Deathstroke and that Deathstroke is badass as well
@@ellegorojo7944 I prefer the look of ascending knight personally, though the blue version of sovereign knight is appealing to my inner fan of brave and the bold
@@ellegorojo7944 true, the overall look of the base sovereign knight just doesn't look right to me, but the varients look great so I'm thinking about getting one of those instead
I'm honestly a little irritated that they added the Bruce Wayne head to the regular release. That was one of the main selling points that convinced me to go for the PX edition, but now I'm just paying extra for a slightly different color scheme.
I just bought mine. Absolutely true. I've owned hundred of batman figures in my lifetime and this is by far the best I've ever owned. I'll probably never buy another batman unless Mezco comes out with a better one lol. That is how great this is. HUNDREDS OF BATMAN FIGURES! And this ONE figure has so captured all my needs and imagination. I say it's definitely worth buying
Imo this or bvs batfleck is the best mezco batman. Great looking and you dont gotta worry about articulation ruining or cracking the suit. Great review!
I'm debating whether I should get it but there are lots of people complaing its suit suffered an orange discoloration even though they said they stored it very well and it happened after a year. Did that happen to yours?
How old is your son? I just got this one and a Mezco joker and they are completely amazing pieces of art! But they are not "toys" in the sense of taking them out and playing in the dirt. They are definitely made to be posed and displayed. Take them out of the box ( the box won't tear or anything when take them out) play gently, but if your kid plays too rough or wants to "beat up" other figues, I would recommend a DC direct batman or Wal-Mart "action figure". I have to sat though. I pose mine often and he is the best batman Batman figure I've ever owned and I've owned hundreds
Got this Friday and once you have him in hand you won't be disappointed. Especially if you put a wired cape on him like I did it just makes it look so much better.
I have all three and Tbh I would go with the sovereign knight Batman because he is when Batman is at his peak and he has some kryptonite for Superman just in case
I really liked the Promo 1st reveal colors at first but seeing the accending knight next to this new one I can see why they went this way, it looks better next to it, the 1st suit they had him on was a little bit darker and would look quite different, Im thinking mezco is thinking most collectors knew they were going to make 3 batmans and would put them one next to another so keeping them as consistent as posible would be a big factor otherweise they would throw off the whole plan of Mezco's take on batman through his carreer.
Dude, I have been LOVING your reviews! I can't decide whether to buy this figure or the Mafex Hush Batman. IF you could only get one, which would you recommend more? Keep it up DUDE! Best figure reviewer!
@@christianvalle4188 I ended up getting the Sovereign Knight, my dude. Two reasons: 1. Some ppl complained about quality control on Mafex 2. I have a lot of import figs and Batman figs but nothing like the Sovereign. Like with the bodysuit n stuff. So I wanted to go with something "new" and unique that I can add to the collection. I still might get some of the Hush figures down the line but I know that Mezco stuff sells out so I didnt wanna miss it. Hope this helps, my dude 🤘🏼🦇
Hey Nikki. As a huge batman mega-fan, I've owned hundreds of batman figures in my life. This is by far the best. This one beats the onyx mostly for one reason. The clothing is more posable and resembles the comic (new 52, rebirth) more then the onyx. If you like the old school Neal Adams batman from the 70's, Mezco has a PX exclusive grey and blue edition made of this "good" material. Good luck and I hope you puck one up.
Since you didn't get a reply. I got mine from a local comic book shop. You won't find these in Wal-Mart or bookamillion. If you don't have a comic shop locally that caries these, first check out Mezco's website. You may have to be put on a wait list but you can find them on eBay as well. The fair and usual cost is $80 each. Be careful of overpaying on sites like Amazon since they sometimes use independent sellers that can't be verified. ( basically if someone asks $100-200, it's a scam). Definitely worth it for a batman fan!
They changed it a bit. The prototype had more lines like the new 52 look but this one looks and poses amazing! Also like he said in the video, you get a bonus Bruce Wayne head that isn't even on the back of the package. Also included but not mentioned on the package is a wired display system (rig) to pose his cape. The rig is pretry much useless and hard to use though.
@@brysonmeridith17 yeah man I ordered a mezco joker and it’s supposed to come today but they switched the delivery date to Tomorrow. The only mafex i would get are the mafex hush figures those are really cool
Mezco are making a Matt black (black belt and bat symbol) onyx version, very much like the all black toy fair ascending knight from last year. I think it’s gonna be their SDCC exclusive. Someone sent me a photo and it looks fantastic, it’s not gonna be cheap so I’d start saving now.
The bodies are definitely the Marvel Legends Demolition Man, and I believe the heads are the Hydra soldier heads from the MCU Red Skull figure that came out last year.
The figure had a major downgrade from the prototype, the forearms are to short and it makes the body look all stocky. His suit also looks as if it is made of a cheaper material, almost as if he is wearing pajamas... Dissapointed me again mezco.
I disagree. Once you own it and see it up close and start posing it, you notice how nice and flexible this material is. The version is a "true batman" (comic version) dream come true. Yeah he is a bit stocky but I love this figure and suit because it just feels like the comic book batman we love. No vinyl rubber bat-suit from the movies
Really? I own this figure. I've owned hundred of batman figures in my life and this is by far the best in my opinion. It completely captures the look and feel of the comic book batman. Do you actually own this figure or are you just trolling? I mean we all are entitled our opinions but I love and I mean LOVE this figure.
Man you are one of the best I've seen. Love the poses you come up with.
I'm honestly surprised that mezco hasn't switched to wire cape yet. Everybody I see talk about a cape with their figures says that they are going to switch to a wire cape.

Apparently when I saw d stars review it had a wires to put on the cape
I didn't know he came with the Bruce Wayne unmasked head. You just saved me from buying one separately. Thanks!
Not the only one
Holy shit your thumbnail tho!
Absolutely love your review! Complete and precise. Thanks for being so chill in demonstrating articulation and suit malleability, other reviewers cringed! Excellent coverage brother. Thanks.
3:56 you always scare me when you do articulation for Mezco figures! Great vid btw. Still waiting for mine to come in.
Great review my friend! Wasn't planning on getting this figure but you clearly brought out all its great points. I love it. Much appreciated.
This looks better than the promo imo, and I enjoy its look better than the suit of the Ascending Knight version
I just got mine this week. Totally agree. Good taste bat-fan!
I have really been wanting a Mezco Batman. Your video is awesome. Thank you.
I like your reviews. They're not long-winded. Actually very helpful for me to making a decision whether to buy or not. I was teetering between this one or the Mezco BM Ascending Bats. You sold me on this one. Thanks, bro!
Thanks for the review Darais. Like I needed the help! SO COPPING THIS FIGURE

rsuriyop I know right I really want a suicide joker to go with my suicide squad Harley Quinn
Did his suit suffer any discoloration after all these years?

An excellent comparison between the different figs and great pics at the end as always.

He looks great. Mezco is always a hit or miss as far as articulation but this passes my test.
Dope review bro. My PO is coming soon but I really want to get that onyx one more.
Hey man do I buy one of these, do you think I’ll regret it?

I prefer ascending knight
Nah, sovereign knight is better at least the standard one is, the px and onyx have to much going on in the suit.
@@ellegorojo7944 I prefer the look of ascending knight personally, though the blue version of sovereign knight is appealing to my inner fan of brave and the bold
@@Smashboi76 its really just up to what you want thats why they released so many versions of batmans throughout these past years.
@@ellegorojo7944 true, the overall look of the base sovereign knight just doesn't look right to me, but the varients look great so I'm thinking about getting one of those instead
Awesome review.
I finally ordered mine and I can’t wait for it to get to me
That was a phenomenal shot of Batman dragging joker by his hair! Simply brutal!
Great 🤦🏾♂️ Now I want 1. Hopefully the blue and gray suit is just as cool.
One personal gripe I wish there was a short eared battle damage sculpt besides that it's great
We needed to see the short ears helmet scuplt on the batman..sad you didn't do that
Did you make the backdrop? Looks very cool
Holy crap dude what background did you use?!?!
I'm honestly a little irritated that they added the Bruce Wayne head to the regular release. That was one of the main selling points that convinced me to go for the PX edition, but now I'm just paying extra for a slightly different color scheme.
This figure looks like the best action figure I’ve seen for Batman. Beats Hot Toys in my opinion.

What was that bane figure at 16:06 it looks amazing
Do the heads swap with the ascending knight?
I can already see Mezco Moon Knight from this review 😀
Just came in today can’t fucking wait
I'm debating whether I should get it but there are lots of people complaing its suit suffered an orange discoloration even though they said they stored it very well and it happened after a year. Did that happen to yours?
It hasn’t happened to mine yet
Still your favorite Batman? I’m looking to get one of them for my son on Xmas and been trying to figure which one

I lowkey get the vibes of Arkham games
The Batman symbol on his chest looked crooked cuz his right shoulder was tilted lower than his left shoulder! Lol
Hi. I'm looking to get this, how is it now? After years of owning it?
Damn this is an absolute must buy. Will go great with my MAFEX JL Superman.
How many Mezco Batmen are there total?
11:20....WOW! AWESOME
I think the chest was slightly leaning off to its right, and thats what was throwing it off
God I wish they did give the same treatment to MK characters
WHERE IS THE CAT?!?!??
I just ordered this Batman and I too would love to put a wired Cape on him but I am terrified I'm going to ruin it after paying $80! 😪
Where can I get this
Trying to decide which of these Batman to get, is gonna be my first Mezco, but argg they are all so cool but I can only afford one :(
I have all three and Tbh I would go with the sovereign knight Batman because he is when Batman is at his peak and he has some kryptonite for Superman just in case
