Diamond Select Toys Immortal Hulk Review

IMMORTAL HULK

Well, this has been my first toy review in quite a while. It's been a busy season in life, but I am making a decision to be disciplined about making time for toys and reviews. We started doing these as a way to blow of steam and have fun so it's good to get back to that.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Black Bolt and Lockjaw Review

  Mezco Toyz Black Bolt and Lockjaw Review 

I have to admit, I'm not a huge Inhumans fan with the story line and characters but I wasn't going to miss out on getting Lockjaw! Black Bolt is the King of the Inhumans with many assorted powers mostly based off of his insanely loud voice.  The King can do damage to anything even with a few soft spoken words, this is power that we can only dream of.  Lockjaw is the protector of the Inhumans family, and has the ability to teleport across time and space and is a key part of the Inhumans. This set took a little longer than I expected to released, but once in hand it's awesome and Lockjaw is the crown jewel in this set.  Mezco keeps hitting us with great release after great release, its hard for all of us to keep up!

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective MDX Blade Review

Mezco Toyz MDX Blade Review

The first version of Blade from Mezco has been considered one of their best releases to date.  We were lucky enough to get this MDX version of Blade that includes some unique pieces the original Blade did not come with.  He is outfitted with a new tactical vest as well as the same handgun leg harness that came with the Toy Fair exclusive Blade. I really like both of these additions along with two different head sculpts compared to the standard release. Let's take a closer look at Blade's details and dig into the pros and cons of Mezco's latest release.  

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Spider-Man Far From Home Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Spider-Man Far From Home

The newest movie versions of Spider-Man have been a huge hit with Marvel fans. I believe this is the 4th Spider-Man version Mezco has released in the similar red with black or blue highlighted suits.  I'm not counting the black PX version as this is a different suit and look all together.  I've always been a fan of the classic Spider-Man look and it was the first version Mezco released and I purchased.  What drew me into purchasing this version is the black and red suit along with some amazing accessories and head sculpts.  I'm very pleased with the Tom Holland head sculpt, Tony Stark glasses, and the perfect effect of a web mask that covers a figures face.  Now its time to take a closer look at the pros and cons of the latest release from Mezco Toyz. 

Mezco Toyz ToyFair 2020 Showcase Coverage

Mezco Toyz ToyFair 2020 Coverage

I got up at 5:15am on Saturday to catch the train around 7am to get to New York in time to check out the Mezco booth.  ToyFair was another amazing event, but Saturday morning I had Mezco on my mind from the minute I woke up.  Once I completed my trip and sat in line for my badge I was off to Mezco's booth.  Each year Mezco approaches the event a little different than they did the year before.  When 9am came the line outside the booth was packed and you could barely get in! Mezco was the talk of ToyFair which is no surprise as they tend to steal the show every year.  Once I was in the booth it was packed. I could barely move and everyone was getting hit with a barrage of Jansport backpacks. What was to come next was exciting. I just couldn't make my way to every spot in the booth due to the size of the crowd.  

Mezco Toyz One:12 Cable Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Cable 

   Cable was sent to the future to save his life when he was infected with a future virus.  Sounds like a great opening to an excellent movie right?  Cable was one of my favorite characters to read about in my 1990's comic binge I did as a kid. I was so attracted to the weapons in comics, and Cable always carried large, unique, futuristic guns that just jumped off the page.  When Mezco first announced this figure, I was thrilled to see they gave Cable his proper arsenal.  Let's take a closer look at how well Mezco did executing a major character to so many people in the 90's.

Mezco Toyz Netflix Punisher Review

Mezco Toyz 
Netflix Punisher

The Netflix Punisher show received a lot of hype over the 2 seasons it was on Netflix.  As the show was coming together I was disappointed they chose Jon Bernthal for the role of the Punisher.  I am a huge fan of the Punisher but will admit I haven't watched any of this show as I am not a fan of Bernthal.  Even with these feelings, I'm still going to give a fair review of the figure Mezco has given us. 

Mezco Toyz One:12 Logan Wolverine Review

Mezco Toyz Logan Wolverine

Logan... is there really a better human weapon out there?  Listen, Wolverine is one of the best characters ever created by Marvel.  I know, you can disagree as I'm truly a Punisher fan, but Logan deserves your respect.  This version is after the X-Men, as he continues his endless journey to help people in need while fighting the demons inside of him.  Not long ago Mezco released Old Man Logan which was a great figure, but I really prefer this version even more.  Let's take a closer look at Logan, and see how well Mezco did creating this awesome character!

Mezco Toyz One:12 Marvel Blade Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Blade

Blade, otherwise known as Eric Brooks, was only a newborn when his mother was attacked by the doctor delivering the baby (Vampire Deacon Frost) and killed her.  In doing so he passed enzymes in his blood into the infant that would eventually become Blade. Blade would go on realizing his powers and fighting all kinds of vampires through time...one of them being Dracula.  Let's see if Mezco's version lives up to the hype of the notorious DAY WALKER! 

DRONE Custom Figures Punisher Head Sculpts and Clothing Review

Drone_Custom_Figures

Punisher Work

Drone Customs on Instagram has been producing quality 1/12 scale items for over a year now.  He initially started out with a hooded Punisher and old man Bruce Wayne head sculpts that went over well with the 1/12 community.  He has since expanded making clothing for the Punisher as well as new head sculpts and wired capes for your One:12 action figures! So far I purchased the 1st edition Punisher head baklava and the classic blue Punisher suit and they are both awesome!  Today we take a closer look at his three new head sculpts and a specific Hydra Punisher T-shirt he created!

Mezco Toyz One:12 Iron Man Figure Review

Mezco Toyz One:12 Iron Man 

Iron Man is easily one of Marvel's most popular characters at this given moment in time. Much of that is due to the Iron Man and Avengers films. Tony Stark is one cocky mofo, but he has the tech and the suit to back it up. Iron Man was a highly anticipated figure for us. He is unique in that the One:12 line prides itself on its soft goods, but this figure doesn't have any soft goods. With that said, they make up for that by making an extremely sturdy action made with metal parts, light up features, and lots of accessories.

Mezco Toyz 2018 NYCC 5 Ronin Wolverine Figure Review

Mezco Toyz 5 Ronin Wolverine

As many of you know by now I love Wolverine as he is my favorite superhero. There can never be too many Wolverine figures for me. I was pleasantly surprised when Mezco announced that they would be making a 5 Ronin version of Wolverine. I bet you never knew you needed a Wolverine with a man bun! The 5 Ronin Wolverine is based on Marvel's 2011 five issue series. Each issue focuses on a different character (Wolverine, Hulk, the Punisher, Psylocke, and Deadpool) and takes place during 17th century feudal Japan.

Mezco Toyz 2018 NYCC Iron Man 42 Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Iron Man 42

Iron Man has so many different suits it's hard to keep track of which ones are from which comic or movie. Mezco's first Iron Man release is the 42 with black, grey and gold highlights with a majority of them being on the metal body.  Iron Man's suits all have a certain lure to them, and the black and gold on this one looks really sharp.  We will be getting more suits out of Iron Man's army, but let's take a closer look at the Model 42.

Drone Custom Figures: Punisher Classic Blue Suit Review

Punisher Classic Blue Suit
by Drone Custom Figures

The Punisher's look has evolved over the years, but he was originally introduced in a slick dark blue uniform with white accents.  Spiderman was the first comic he showed up in, but he quickly grew in popularity and evolved into a super hero (or maybe antihero is a better term) character for Marvel. I actually think the clean tight fitting suit in dark blue with white accents is an awesome look.  While no company has compiled this look with fabric Drone Customs decided he needed to provide it to the masses! 

Mezco Toyz SDCC 2018 Exclusive Special Ops Punisher Review

Mezco Toyz 
Special Ops Edition Punisher

What is the one thing that Mezco fans can't get enough of? PUNISHER!!! Every Punisher from the original release to the PX to the Classic have been amazing. The SDCC Special Ops edition does not disappoint. He has an uncanny load out only to be matched by the PX edition, but the Special Ops introduces many new goodies to us.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Old Man Logan Review

Mezco Toyz 
Old Man Logan

While I am a huge Wolverine fan the Old Man Logan storyline is not my favorite. If you're not familiar it takes place in an alternate reality in a dystopian future where descendants of the Incredible Hulk and She-Hulk (called the Hulk Gang) viciously run a territory of the country (now run by super villains) called Hulkland. Long story short Logan's family is killed and he takes revenge by killing them all except for a baby named Bruce Jr. A lot happens, but you get the point. While I don't love this particular storyline I do love this this figure. Let's take a look.

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Spider-Man Figure Review

Mezco Toyz Spider-Man

Peter Parker, the little orphan boy who was bit by a spider and gained his powers, is no longer a little skinny boy. He is now seeking out his true meaning. He is now realizing what his true calling is.  Shortly after being bitten, he tested his skills against the wrestler Crusher Hogan and defeats him in crazy Spider-Man fashion.  After the match, his caretaker Uncle Ben is murdered putting Peter into a frenzy to fight crime his own way.  Peter was ready to face the criminals but didn't realize all the real enemies he would soon match up against.

Drone Custom Figures: Franks Mask Review

Franks Mask
by Drone Custom Figures

If you follow us you probably already know my all time favorite character is Frank Castle.  I am pretty active on Instagram, and I have been following Drone Customs out of the UK.  He started out casting heads for Batman and has quickly grown into other areas for custom pieces.  His main focus at the moment is Mezco head sculpts, and I couldn't pass on his version of Frank's Mask!
