One:12 Collective Deadpool Figure by Mezco

[Captainkrabs]

This will be mine for sure! Sad I won't be getting the extra head, but oh well... Looks gorgeous!
I just hope the fabric suit will blend nicely with the PVC head.

Thank goodness this is armed with some nice-looking accessories that are Wade's custom stuff. Would have been a pass otherwise. The neck being covered still isn't the most fluid, but it's easy to look over when the figure looks this nice.

Really nice figure, but I'm noticing that the prices of these One:12 Collective figures are slowly creeping up and up...I remember that Judge Dredd was only $65, and now we're at $85.

"Two (2) newly developed head portraits including:
Classic head
Squinting head"

Both the description and the images show two different heads are included.

Extra head is exclusive to buyers on Mezco's webstore, hence my comment, since you can't buy directly from them outside of the US.

Then buy it from somewhere like BBTS, who includes both heads at $5 less than Mezco store.

That's an option indeed, but ~30$ of shipping plus ~25% of total as import fees seems a bit too much for the extra head I'll be fine with the regular on this one!

Unfortunately, it seems the premium/higher quality figure-producing companies are taking this approach anyway. However, given that Mezco makes specialized toys from select franchises, one has to take into account the fan-base/popularity of each. Judge Dredd, while popular among the comic-book loving people, does not have a popularity nearly as high as Deadpool, or most Marvel or DC properties. The Dark Knight Returns Batman ran from $50-$65 depending on where one got it though. I guess that was their doorway to see how much they could get away with down the road.

I think it looks not bad but not great. The problem is the face is a hard plastic while the rest of the body is soft plastic. It just does not work with masked characters the way it should imo.

This is a pretty nice looking figure (I wish they would have done the movie version, but it's Deadpool so it's still a must have either way). As much as I love Mezco's One:12 line, I will admit that their pricing for these are getting to be a bit much.

Still cheaper than Hot Toys & Sideshow, but looking at how much their earlier stuff cost, this just feels like price gouging for the sake of the name/character (but better them than someone else on Ebay I guess).

I really wish instead of "Headpool" they gave us two more swappable heads for the actual Deadpool figure. Possibly an unmasked & partially masked head. Either way this is still taking my money. Although, I will say the costume designs on the revoltech and recent legends figures do look better.

Seeing as how Mezco is doing both comic and movie stuff for DC, but only comic stuff for Marvel, I'm guessing Mezco doesn't have the license for any live-action Marvel stuff.

I think the prices on One:12 Collective figures vary from license to license. Marvel's always been the most expensive of them, and I hope this increase doesn't apply to future Marvel figures from them, or any other figures from them for that matter.

The Revoltech and Legends figures used the Marvel NOW! costume (which, as far as I can recall, he's still wearing), while this uses a more generic Deadpool look as far as I can tell, with few specific details to pin it as a specific version of the costume. The most noticeable thing differentiating the Marvel NOW! costume to me is the pants: on most Deadpool costumes, the red of the center of the torso continues down to the entirety of the pants, with black from the sides of the torso only going a bit down the outsides of the thighs, while with the Marvel NOW! costume, it's the opposite; the black of the sides of the torso continue down to make the pants almost entirely black, with the red from the center of the torso only continuing down to the crotch and the inside of the thighs.

You're right! I was wondering why they both went with that design. In that case, it's cool that they went with a different (although more generic) design. It would be a bit "meh" to have three figures of the same character in the same scale and outfit. So this definitely makes me appreciate the difference in opinion more.

Although, the switching to predominantly black from red with the legs still makes for better looking aesthetic. It also does make sense that would only have the comic rights to Marvel's stuff. Hopefully the more they sell the more forthcoming Marvel may become with their live action rights. I just hope the prices don't go up in future. I want to keep supporting this line so I'm sure I'll just deal and pre-order and try to continue saving.

They do quality for, and you're right on the pricing. I have noticed that their DC stuff is more lax in pricing than their Marvel stuff. I keep noticing all of DC is 70-75 while Marvel is 80 and up. Here's hoping to better pricing in the near future. It's the least they can do for the delays lol jk.

The Headpool accessory is exclusive to Mezco, but all of them come with two regular heads. He comes with a "classic head" as well as a "squinting head". Read the description or look at the upper-left of the image showing all the accessories. There's a second head in the upper-left and vertical writing talking about the second head... different than the Headpool accessory. If you count Headpool as a head, the Mezco version comes with 3 and everyone else has him with just 2. Still 2 unique heads included though.

Yeah I was talking about headpool, sorry if it sounded otherwise!
