Wow Mezco is trying to takeover the 6” figure market .so many reveals, tackling all these franchises

 

[dukefett]

Yeah I'm surprised how much they're spreading themselves out. Just gotta wonder though how many of these lines can they really support fully.

 

[ragacin]

I ain't following this rabbit down that hole
Plenty happy with the Classifieds.
However, Destro does look very good, and was a good starting figure.

 

[CROSAL24]

Joes and Power Rangers.. I’m so happy ��

 

[Buttmunch]

Oh geeze, more hard to get exclusives. Mezco: by scalpers, for scalpers.

 

[GodParticle]

When does that go up? I must have

 

[Warpig]

Meh...

 

[LiLJawa]

Smiling head looks goofy imo.

 

[mistermark]

They did great. He looks good. Rockets should be way bigger but decent job

 

[Damien]

that smiling head is scary and ridiculous at the same time
the rest is pretty cool

 

[Unclechopchop]

Having a hard enough time getting the Hasbro stuff....

I do Not have Faith in them with the Joe line.

Mezco are all about cost cutting for maximum Turn over per figure. Their die hard core would buy Literally ANYTHING they made and Defend it LOL

Their Netflix Punisher, John Wick, Hellboy 70s Supermans and so many others are All victims of Cost cutting. Be it Less articulation or doing the outfits properly.

Their weapons tend to be hit n miss or wrong scale. Look at the Mp5-K waaay to big.

My biggest worry however is a Figure by Mezco for the price compared to retail Hasbro. Mezco fans like to claim they are the "HOT Toys of 1/12th scale", so You expect a Much Better figure with that BOLD claim.
Let's Not forget Mezco have a tendency to make weapons holding figures with limited articulation. They cannot shoulder their weapons properly in firing stances. Either hip shooting best or chicken wing shooters. Wick and Netflix Punisher neither can hold Rfles properly.

Alas Plastic belts/webbing/Holsters/hats and berets are to be expected from Mezco. Plus To Be Brutally Honest. I Have No fith in Mezco getting a Camo pattern Accurate or to scale.

However with Destro it is just One of their Steroid limited articulation bodies, with a Lycra suit on. That is easy for them to do and claim doing a GREAT JOB.

I did these myself. Made the Camo material (Printed) and sewn clothing and made cloth belts/webbing/Leather baldric belt/vests and even cloth Beret for Falcon. Plus cloth printed insignia. I Do Not see a Brand like Mezco making Any attempt to do any of the figures justice.

I Do Not claim to be Better as this is fan made. I DO However claim to put more into the figure to capture their essence than Mezco.

That sums it up concisely just like the worst of the bad old of days of Sideshow limited edition exclusives being grabbed up by scalpers.

Glad they didn’t start this line off with one of their super limited exclusives. Ordered mine from Dorkside with free shipping.

 

[Joe Scorpio]

I'm not getting into this line in depth but since Destro is my favorite character, I want to grab him.
Anyone know if Timewalker will get these? They're not on their website yet and since they're in driving distance, I'd rather order from them.
