Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Exclusive Batman vs Two-Face 2 Pack Review

Mezco Toyz Batman vs Two Face 2 Pack

Mezco does it again with another Batman and Two Face! Over the past few years many Mezco customers feel there's been to much focus on Batman, but I'm not one of those collectors and I really enjoy what this 2-pack comes with and the throwback feel to the figures.  If you've followed the Batman comics for a long time then you are going to enjoy this set.  The artwork on the boxes is excellent and really matches what Mezco has put together in figure form. Let's take a closer look at this 2-pack and everything it comes with. 

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Batman: MDX Supreme Knight: Shadow Edition Review

 Mezco Toyz Batman: MDX Supreme Knight Review 

Mezco has always crushed it when it comes to Batman, simply put the owner of Mezco Toyz is a die hard Batman fan so of course he gets the most attention.  Mezco has been closing out the trilogy with the Supreme Knight figures, and the MDX may have saved the best Batman release for last!  There are so many amazing things that come with this version, which I essentially consider an 'Ultimate" Mezco Batman.  I was excited to take him out of the box and look at all of the wonderful things he comes with. Let's take a closer look at this jam packed Batman and see if he lives up to the hype!

Mezco Toyz One:12 Harley Quinn Review

  Mezco Toyz Harley Quinn Review 

It's Harley Quinn, this sweet little girl that likes long walks and lolly pops.  If that were Harley I think she would be a much different character, maybe even a woman who pursues Bruce Wayne.  Harley is a bad, bad girl with lots of crazy thoughts going through her head and shes's in love with everyone's favorite whack job the Joker.  The first Harley I owned was the Mezco movie version and I thought she was a very cool figure with great head sculpts. This Harley, is the one that we saw in the comics or even some animated series where she just likes to be a wild girl. I was excited to get her in hand and when I opened her up, she really met my expectations.  Let's take a closer look at this very kind and lovely woman we call Harley Quinn.

Mezco Toyz 2019 NYCC Exclusive Batman vs Black Mask Figure Set Review

Mezco Toyz 
NYCC 2019 Exclusive Batman vs Black Mask Set

I've been patiently waiting for Mezco to release more bad guys, and I'm really happy Black Mask is the latest!  Mezco killed it with an NYCC exclusive 2-pack set of Batman and Black Mask and probably the coolest thing that came out of NYCC.  The characters are true DC icons that really deserved a sweet blacked out set.  The mob boss Black Mask has his clutch on the criminal landscape of Gotham, and only the Sovereign Knight can stop him!  Let's take a closer look at this amazing set that sold out within 5 minutes of going up for pre-order!

HIYA Toys ThinkGeek Exclusive Batman

HIYA Toys ThinkGeek Batman

Batman is by far my favorite DC Comics superhero.  He also just so happens to be one of my favorite characters to use when playing Injustice 2. This version of Batman is the blue Classic Crusader skin from the game. Let's take a closer look at this Batman and what Hiya toys has to offer!  

Mezco Toyz One:12 Sovereign Knight Batman Review

Mezco Toyz 
Sovereign Knight Batman

Do we need another Batman? Well, yes. Yes, we do...because we love Batman, you love Batman, and Mezco loves Batman. At this point I own many different One:12 Batman figures, but this one just might be my new favorite. He's sharp, mean, and tactical looking. The best part about him is that he is chock full of accessories. What's the point in having a cool utility belt if you don't have accessories, right? So let's take a look at this guy.

Mezco Toyz Mezitz 1989 Batman and Batmobile

Mezco Toyz Mezitz 

1989 Batman and Batmobile 

It's 1989 and Batman is finally on the big screen and it was a huge leap from the previous TV adaption of the character.  Mezco has taken this iconic film/look of Batman and brought it to life in their Mezitz format!  The Batmobile is perfectly scaled with their 2" Mezitz figures and is a really cool piece to play with and look at! 

Mezco Toyz One:12 Clown Prince of Crime Joker Review

Mezco Toyz Joker Clown Prince of Crime Edition

The Joker is crazy, and he's a really creepy clown.  Batman's most lethal foe is always cooking up crazy plans of crime and chaos in the dark city of Gotham.  Joker is considered by many people to be the greatest single villain of all time. If you have to sit and think for a minute as to why, then you probably are not a fan of the Joker. Mezco has produced three versions of Joker so far, each one with a unique look for you to decide what's your favorite version.  If you are like me, I have picked up all three versions and hope Mezco continues to do more!

Mezco Toyz One:12 Exclusive Purple Variant Catwoman Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Exclusive
Purple Catwoman

Catwoman has always been one of the classic badass villains of DC Comics and a formidable foe for the Caped Crusader. Way before Harley Quinn was even a thing Catwoman was holding it down representing strong female villains. The initial release of this figure was fantastic, but the purple on this one just pops. Plus, Mezco made sure to make some improvements which should make many people happy.

NY Toy Fair 2019 Roundup

NECA, Storm Collectibles, Super7, and MORE!!!!

Last Saturday for the fifth consecutive year in a row Steve and I made our annual voyage up to the Javits Center for New York Toy Fair. It is always a long day with lots of work, but we always find a way to keep it fun.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Justice League Tactical Suit Batman Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Justice League Tactical Suit Batman

Batman is a character that over the years dons a ton of different suits and looks. I generally don't find any that  I don't like that much.  I am not a huge fan of the Justice League movie or Ben Affleck as Batman but this figure is really sharp and detailed.  The suit is designed for combat with super power foes, as Batman only has his skills and wit to defeat the evil he faces. I really love Batman and Mezco really does a great job giving us every single one of his looks!

Mezco Toyz SDCC 2018 Exclusive Batman Beyond Review

Mezco Toyz 
Batman Beyond 

The Batman Beyond series ran about 20 years ago, and it was really never my favorite version of him.  That being said, Mezco does an excellent job of translating the character into figure form.  The storyline revolves around Terry McGinnis taking over the role of Batman with an older Bruce Wayne serving as a mentor to him. I found this to be an interesting character for Mezco to produce, but the look and feel turned out great.

CSJ Week in Review

Here is a look at some of the most interesting and exciting news about toys, movies, and pop culture from this past week.

Mezco Toyz Exclusive One:12 The Joker: Deluxe Edition Review

Mezco Toyz Exclusive
The Joker Deluxe Edition

The Joker is not only the Batman's greatest foe, but he is one of my favorite villains in the DC Comics universe. This crazy psycho is packed with tons of goodies and accessories and truly deserves the title of "Deluxe Edition." This figure is a ton of fun and comes with so much that it's easy to cause a lot of mayhem with him!

Mezco Toyz One:12 Batman Day Ascending Knight Black Variant Review

Mezco Toyz 
Batman Day Black Variant Ascending Knight Batman

Mezco decided to celebrate Batman day with this all black with gold belt Ascending Knight Variant! The Ascending Knight brings with it a very distinct look as Batman evolves over time. This version has a very similar look to the exclusive Batman that was given out by Mezco at NY Toyfair.  The Ascending Knight has quickly become a cool little collection I have, and in the end I plan to have all four versions Mezco is making. Let's get into the details with this third installment of the Ascending Knight Batman.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Ascending Knight Batman Review

Mezco Toyz 
Ascending Knight Batman

Batman is a very interesting comic character that's been around for a long time.  Mezco decided that the Ascending Knight deserved to have all four of his looks brought to toy form! This first version is during the time when Batman is developing his suit and techniques to fight crime.  The Ascending Knight brings with it a very distinct look as Batman evolves over time.  Time will tell which of the Ascending Knights that Mezco makes will be the top, but for now lets take a closer look at the mysterious bat in the grey suit.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Exclusive BvS Knightmare Batman Review

Mezco Toyz Exclusive BvS Knightmare Batman

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is a highly controversial movie with DC fans, and you either love it or you hate it. Despite how you feel about Zack Snyder or how the movie was you can not deny that this figure is amazing. It is based on a couple minutes in the film where we see a dystopian future/alternate reality where everything you know about these characters is turned upside-down. It is an earth where Superman is evil and doesn't hesitate to kill and Batman is a resistance fighter who doesn't have any problem with picking up a gun to get the job done. Mezco had originally shown a prototype of this figure but later announced that they were cancelling the project. Luckily, an outcry from Mezco fans in support of this figure erupted, and Mezco listened and made this figure a reality.

2018 Mezco Toy Fair Exclusive Ascending Knight Batman

Mezco Toyz Toy Fair Exclusive
Ascending Knight Batman

OK...so I really like this Batman.  Mezco's Toy Fair Exclusive Ascending Knight is already a hit with anyone that loves Mezco and Batman.  There has been a lot of talk around the variances with this version and if it will end up being the best one of the Ascending Knights.  I, personally, think it will be close as Mezco is coming out with some really strong suits in this category.  Let's take a closer look at Mezco's New York Toy Fair Exclusive Batman.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Mutant Leader Review

Mezco Toyz Mutant Leader 

The leader of the Mutants gang is nasty, lethal, and brutal. He doesn't act like a civilized human being. The Mutant Leader actually beats Batman in hand to hand combat during their first encounter.  It's hard to imagine someone taking it to Batman (even an older Batman), and actually walking away from the fight.  Although there is more to the story and of course Batman gets his revenge! Let's take a closer look at Mezco's Mutant Leader figure!
