Summary
The Dark Knight Returns Batman figure introduced the One:12 Collective line with a fully poseable, 1:12 scale body combined with a high-end cloth costume that preserves articulation without compromise. It features detailed sculpting true to Frank Miller's art style, multiple interchangeable parts, and accessories that enhance display options. This figure set a new standard for premium action figures by seamlessly integrating soft goods with robust articulation and meticulous design.
