Any indication when Darkseid will be available?
Is the superman comic version worth getting? $80 sounds like a lot of money for a small toy, so I am wondering your thoughts on that one before I take the plung. I think I mostly want it because the Darkseid mezco looks so damn good and those two together would looks great.
I'm with Gaspar.....100% comic accurate or nothing. Mezco can "mez flair" my ballz.
How did this line start so amazing with DKR and they haven't even managed to come close since? I guess the Punisher looked pretty damn good, but even that wasn't comic accurate.
I really do think there's something to the conspiracy theory that they're simply not contractually allowed to make the accurate figures we all want.
Oh well. It could have been the greatest toyline of all time. At least I have my ultimate Miller Batmans out of it.
(Although not really....it still kills me that I have the light blue PX version instead of the perfect PRCC version that costs like a zillion bucks.)

Speak for yourself! I mostly kid, but there’s a market for figures that have the kind of flare most Mezcos do. Most of what they’ve done is fantastic! There are a few head scratchers here and there I’ll admit, but very minor. One of those being a belt... on a Superman figure. I’ve always been of the opinion that if you don’t like the Mezco “flare”, then you’re better off staying away from the line altogether, because each figure that’s aligned with the comic properties has it to some extent just like each artist that draws these characters.

Well, yeah. I am of the same opinion. I just said that. It's why I HAVE stayed away from the line altogether since the DKR Batman in 2015.

What’s funny is that I see that gif and go right to feeling like Walter White. Ugh. Nicely done.
Why do you guys disapprove so much!? Lol. I feel like I’m the only one in this thread that loves Mezco. BTW, I do think that it’s weirdly funny that you haven’t bought a figure from the line since the first figure they produced for One: 12, and yet here you are 641 pages in expressing your discontent. I don’t mean this to be insulting at all, just saying.
I also think it’s humorous that Bob asks about the Superman and the first response is to wait for DCC version... again no offense to anyone, but that blows my mind.

Some people's self esteem is so low, that it isn't enough to not like something. They need others to not like it so it validates their existence.
Well that and they NEED everyone to know that their opinion is more valid and better than other people and everyone else needs to realize that.
Personally I love this line and think it’s great. Considering how often comic characters change costumes it’s stupid to complain about “flare”. It’s the only line I buy besides the occasional Hot Toy.
And how was someone able to get comic Superman for $80 dollars?
I picked up my comic supes for $80 I think, but I also PO'd it and paid up front. I'm not saying every move Mezco makes is golden, but if as much bothered me about a product as Mezco seems to do to some of these people, I'd just stop buying them, unfollow their social media and as an emotionally semi-healthy adult, I certainly wouldn't waste any of my time trying to change another adults opinion on an action figure. I didn't think their Supes was a home run, even said as much when I reviewed it here. I just don't think it's the aberration everyone pretends like it is.
Well said. I'm not sure that anyone thinks that every figure they produce is an aberration per se. I certainly like them, and favor them to Legends and DCC, but to emphatically claim that you haven't liked the line since the first figure produced kinda warrants a "well what's the point" sort of response.
