My Collection: The Dark Knight Rises Movie Masters Action Figure Batman

I’m a big fan of The Christopher Nolan Batman movies and I was very excited for the third and final film in this trilogy, it was the first batman movie that was released since I started getting into Batman graphic novels. The Movie Masters accommodate both film and Comic book action figure collectors.

MOVIE MASTERS With authentic detail, deluxe articulation and supreme quality, the Movie Masters line offers fans the premium collecting experience. True-to-scale, these figures are expertly crafted to ensue the highest standards for your collection.

After Mattel’s The Dark Knight Rises Movie Masters Build A Batsignal caught my attention I was interested in this figure for my collection. I ordered it online from the States and received in time for Christmas. This was my second Batman collectors’ action figure. Although I already had a Batman this one was a great figure that I couldn't pass up. This Batman action figure is just an outstanding collector’s item and it goes along with my Movie Masters Batsignal. 

It is an extremely solid and eye-catching figure that does full justice to its source material.He is shorter than and not as buff as other Batman figures as The Movie Masters Line is a representation of the characters in realistic proportions. The figure is made my Mattel and is extremely similar to the DC Universe Classics which are my preferred line of collector’s figures.

From the body armor to the spiked gauntlets to the bat chest symbol, the whole suit is there in impressive detail. This is the most detailed Batman figure I own and it is based on a physical representation of the Caped Crusader. This Batman figure is not only highly detailed, but also so subtle. What looks like a solid black figure is much more intricate, the very nature of the Dark Knight suit works to hide the various joints and create a more natural look. The detailing and the amour hide the joints of the figure and consist of different shades of black, gray and glossy paint applications.

This is the second release of this figure and is almost identical  to the Dark Knight Movie Masters Batman figure. This version has some minor paint differences and more practical accessory piece. The previous waves accessory were various evidence bags and this that Batman release included an over sized Batman cowl. This 2012 release is better as it included a base piece to build the awesome Batsignal.

This is an awesome collectors figure and one that will kept me interested in Mattel’s future Movie Masters releases. It is just great to have collectors merchandise based on an excellent and one of my favorite movie franchises.
