Mezco Gomez One:12

Tony_Bacala · 02-19-2019, 08:19 PM

Personally I think it's pretty cool. I wouldn't go out of my way to grab one, but I dig it. It's like John Wick, LL Cool J and Ant-Man got tossed in a blender.

Even that release didn't have the same outfit. Tailoring was the same, but different patterns and colors.

I read something about a Gomez figure and I thought they were talking about the Addams Family.

I don't really see the appeal of this. The One:12 figures are already very expensive and most people only have so much money to go around. Why not spend the money on characters that have actual source material like comics or movies? It's almost like making a figure of the Gorton's fisherman and charging $80.

But I guess it's not like anyone's being forced to buy it.

i understand what you are saying but collectors buy it cause its a kool figure. just for that reason alone even though it doesn't have a movie or comic. or maybe they like bugs like myself, he even looks like the creatures from District 9

Didnt realize Mezco even had a mascot. It's ok I guess...kinda has a Men in Black vibe to it.

Dmar1994 · 02-20-2019, 06:21 PM

Another update it's now wait-listed. Also let's hope the blade figure gets on pre-order as well

Tomax · 02-20-2019, 06:32 PM

i thought men in black was aliens not bugs?

Eh. Not as cool as the suited version for me. Really wish they'd do another run of that version instead

dukefett · 06-11-2019, 12:20 PM

Someone mentioned that this might be cool to throw the Peter Parker head on as a custom, it'd be nice, but it's pricey. Hope it has a lot of accessories.

If you go to Mezco's website it says pre-orders start on 6/12.

Grant C · 06-11-2019, 02:04 PM

What a dissappointment! Not only is this figure self-serving, it sucks! $90 to advertise for Mezco! I was hoping for something much better. Good news is that Mezco has been pounding my bank account lately so, I'm happy to give my wallet a break! I do not understand the appeal of a giant cockroach. It's ugly as f@&k! It's also a case of shameless self promotion. While other companies are putting out figures people want Mezco comes out with this & then has the gall to charge $90 for the "privelage" of promoting their company mascot! I have been collecting One:12's since the beginning & I am very happy with all the ones I own. But this...computer says NO!

he is talking about the original post, look at the date he posted.

since i never got the first version, i would like to get this one but gotta wait till Thurs, hopefully he is still available thou

Grant C · 06-11-2019, 06:47 PM

Ooooops! It will be. Gomez is Mezco's property & they can make as many as they want. Also after John Wick I think Mezco will make the figure available long enough that everyone who wants one should be able to pick one up.

They aren't showing the other two portraits. I suspect they are just different color versions of the skull and ant portraits, but would be nice to know what the colors are.

I guess I was wrong! This thing sold out fast. I thought after the Toyfair Gomez & John Wick things would be different. Looks like it's back the chaos!

There was a picture up showing a red skull similar to the black one from Agent Gomez.

It appears there will be a white/red ant headsculpt as well after looking through the pictures Joe attached.

Well those definitely showed up late on the website. The Ant head looks to be the most interesting of the bunch with the different color eyes and what looks similar to a Ziggy Stardust graphic on the right side.

One of the more colorful releases, for sure.

dukefett · 06-12-2019, 01:14 PM

Picked it up, seemed to be loaded with accessories, which always sell me. I wish they had that product photo where it shows everything it comes with though, I like being able to visually see it all together.

They have that page up now. Mosrt of the accessories are repaints... but cool ones. Sword is now green, the pea shooter is striped red and white, we're getting red and blue blast effects, amongts other things.
