Mezco Toyz Deals You In With The One: 12 Collective Gambit Pre-Order

"Playin' for keeps is still playin', mon ami, so take a card...ANY CARD!" If you were a X-Men fan in the 1990s, whether comic book or cartoon, odds are that you either wanted to be Gambit or you wanted to kiss him. The suave master thief stole the hearts of many a geek in his heyday and continues to be a popular character even now. Mezco's One: 12 Collective line has just placed the Ragin' Cajun up for pre-order, making a whole lot of those fans happy. Teased back during Toy Fair of this year and fully revealed during San Diego Comic-Con,...

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Green Lantern John Stewart Review

When Mezco Toyz announced a Green Lantern would be joining the One:12 Collective line, I was slightly surprised that they went with John Stewart at the time. Hal Jordan was the more obvious choice, I thought. (They'd end up soliciting him as a Previews Exclusive release soon after John, anyway.)

He was just as obvious a choice as Hal; it just depends on when you became a...

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Sovereign Knight: Batman Previews Exclusive Review

There is no lack of Batman in Mezco Toyz One: 12 Collective line.  Many collectors would argue that there need never be another Batman figure released, even. I do not count myself as one of those collectors, but I do admit to being a tad burned out on the Caped Crusader train. I have owned nearly every iteration of the Dark Knight that Mezco has ever released since the first one back in 2015. I also already own the Onyx Edition of this Sovereign Knight Batman, so that was yet another point against me having any excitement going into this release. I...

Mezco Toyz One:12 Collective Commissioner Gordon and Bat-Signal Review

There are some supporting characters that can become so ingrained in a franchise that it can be difficult imagining said franchise without them. James Gordon definitely fits that bill, whether as Commissioner, detective or captain. The face of the Gotham City Police Department in the Batman mythos, Gordon finally gets the One:12 Collective treatment, ahead even of other, more obvious choices like Robin or Batgirl. Released as one of three San Diego Comic-Con 2019 exclusives, Gordon is packed in with another important icon from the Batman world, the Bat-Signal. Let’s take a look at both collectibles and find out if...
