Mezco Toyz has officially opened the doors to the early days of Gotham’s protector with the reveal of the Mezco One:12 Collective Batman Year One. Based directly on the seminal comic masterpiece by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, this figure captures Bruce Wayne at the raw, gritty start of his war on crime.

Comic-Accurate Craftsmanship

The Mezco One:12 Collective Batman Year One stands approximately 17cm tall and features a meticulously tailored cloth suit. This isn’t just a standard costume. This is a comic-accurate representation of the “Year One” aesthetic. It is complete with a wired cape designed for dramatic, gravity-defying poses that mirror the artwork of the 1987 storyline.

Five Head Portraits and Unparalleled Detail

In a move that highlights the emotional and physical toll of Bruce Wayne’s first year, Mezco has included five interchangeable head portraits. These range from intense, masked expressions to an unmasked Bruce Wayne, showcasing the grit and determination of a man still refining his mythic persona.

Figure Specifications:

• Articulated Body: Over 30 points of articulation for ultimate poseability.
• Hand-Painted Details: Every head sculpt features authentic, hand-painted textures.
• Interchangeable Hands: Thirteen different hands, including specialized grips for grenades, tape recorders, and batarang-throwing FX.

An Experimental Arsenal

The Year One Batman was known for using whatever tools he could find before the days of the high-tech Batcave. Mezco has faithfully recreated this experimental arsenal:

• Signature Gear: Three batarangs, a tranq gun, and three styles of grenades.
• Story-Specific Items: A functional-looking floodlight, a recording device used for gathering intel, and a blowgun with a dart effect.
• Action FX: Includes a belt explosion effect and batarang-throwing FX that attach directly to the hands.

Collector-Friendly Presentation

True to the One:12 Collective brand, this figure comes with a branded display base and an adjustable clear post for aerial or dynamic combat stances. The set is housed in a collector-friendly box, ensuring that the packaging stays as pristine as the figure itself.

For fans of Batman: Year One, this release is more than an action figure; it is a piece of comic book history brought to life.
