>>7554293I personally like just everything about it more. Granted what I'm about to gush about is just my opinion, so take it for what you will.
Where to start? The outfit for one on Sovereign is just so much better. It fits better and without any vinyl like Ascending has it doesn't hamper articulation. With the vinyl stuff I'm a little more wary of pushing the figure to it's limits. Not the case here. The cape is also made of a lighter material and sits a lot better than Ascending knights. The proportions are just better. Honestly Sovereign has my ideal Batman proportions. Ascending was too lanky in order to illustrate a younger Bruce Wayne. Soverign is just bulky enough. He also has better articulation with boot and glove cuts when Ascending is lacking those. Accessories are also much more plentiful. The three extra heads are top tier and the unsolicited Bruce Wayne head is the same sculpt as the younger Ascending head but the paint is just SOOO much better around the eyes. The outline on the younger heads eyes bugs me. Plus day battle damaged head is good tier. I have quite a few Mezco figures and I honestly didn't think they were going to top their Punisher or Popeye but I think Sovereign Knight may be one of their best figures. It's funny because I almost cancelled my pre order like 3 times. I'm so glad I didn't.
