Toy Fair 2018 : we take a better look at the Mezco One:12 figures


The Mezco team have shared a wealth of their own images and shots from Toy Fair 2018 which gives us a much better look at their offerings from New York.

Black Panther, Thor, Hulk and the two Spider-Man Homecoming figures had been announced prior to Toy Fair 2018, and the Daredevil in his red/black suit was seen last year. While Punisher was a natural next release from the Netflix arm of the MCU, we hadn't expected another new Daredevil - now in his Season 1 early black suit.

Going back to Thor, Ragnarok and Hulk and Thor were displayed overlooked by a brand new Hela figure. Something doesn't quite look right about Hela - perhaps the head is a touch big or perhaps it is the soft goods suit.

For comic book fans we got another look at Doctor Strange and then had figures confirmed for Cable and Blade.

The DC reveals were a lot slimmer than Marvel with a new John Stewart Green Lantern along with a look at the DC Movie Flash. Other figures on display have been announced or have been seen before including the Joker, Darkseid and the various Batman figures.

Horror figures from Mezco look to be giving fans an alternative from NECA who appear to have cornered the market to date. These 6" versions from classic licences include Jason from Friday the 13th and Michael Myers - who NECA can't do at the moment due to licence issues. We saw more of the two zombies from Day of the Dead, who look great. And finally checkout Ash from Evil Dead, completed with his trusty chainsaw.

Amongst the "others" we saw the John Wick figure announced just before Toy Fair. We got another chance to see the Ghostbusters as well as the Diabolik and Popeye figures.

Finally Mezco are giving us two King Kong figures. 2018 will see the smaller 7" release, or you can wait for 2019 and pickup the fearsome 18" version who is truly a monster.
