While I get that these Rumble Society guys are the "low hanging fruit" since they don't have to trouble themselves with going through licensors, I do wish we'd get more regular reveals from their Marvel and especially DC lines... Doctor Fate was the last one I bought/cared about and that feels like AGES ago.

I also think it's odd we don't have a female RS character yet. We don't do we?

Wow, Mezco seemed like they spared no expense for that trailer. Cool. And nice use of the NECA BioShock Little Sister figure, lol.

Nope, none yet, but it would indeed be cool to see a female character in this line.

Yeah, that trailer is really well done, good stuff.

I always wanted a Cthulhu from Mezco, but the full thing, giant monster with wings and all. The headsculpt and tentacle arm are cool though, but probably not enough for me to buy this figure.

Also, I was waiting for a figure of them named "Doom" to go up for pre-order, this isn’t it ;)

That was a pretty awesome trailer! I'm definitely interested in this guy!

I feel like the Blue Raja is missing his spoons.

Jokes aside, Mezco is bringing it. I don't even collect this and it gives me hype.

Got a feeling they're easing up on licensed stuff since 1) no license fee and 2) competition with other companies sharing licenses. This definitely feels like a cost cutting measure. Comparing the past 6 months with their output from 1-2 years ago, it's extremely noticeable. They haven't done anything with the MMPR license since the rangers. No villains? And what's going on with the stuff they did announce years ago that never got released? I'm glad I cut out Mezco out of my collection tbh bc if I was all-in like a lot of other people, I'd be pretty pissed lol

There's a decent amount of licensed stuff up for PO/in the pipeline, but it's been a while since they've done a normal retail release.

I looked up last year's Toy Fair reveals, the only One:12 not put up for preorder were Spider-Gwen, Green Ranger, and the Planet of the Apes figures, but they've put up or delivered (just Rumble Society), 11 other One:12s.

As far as the fall show goes they didn't reveal as much, just Batman/Two-Face, Doom, and Power Rangers, but yeah none of them have gone up for PO yet.

They teased at least two female Rumble Society characters, including Tangerine in the Bond Gomez release. My understanding is that they are working on a new body and waiting until it is done to release new female characters.

There are definitely more than that. Off the top of my head I can think of Dr. Doom, Batman and Two-Face, Dick Tracey and (his name escapes me), Firefly from GI Joe, the rest of the OG Power Ranger team, and Robin. It hard to say how much of an effect the pandemic and supply chain issues are slowing down their offerings and ability put out licensed figures.

I'm definitely in on Atticus after seeing the Cthulu head (I'm pretty tired of Skulls and Roaches) Hopefully a heap of cool accessories and less swag with this release! ...and they need to drop that Robin ASAP!

I did mention Doom, Batman/Two Face, and the Power Rangers in my post.

I missed their SDCC reveals when I was looking it up. Dick Tracy/Flat Top, Firefly, and Robin not here yet, but Gotham by Gaslight Joker, Spider-Man 2099, and Silent Hill Pyramid Head went up for PO.

That was a fun video. Maybe we will here about the Michael Keaton Batman that I’ve had ordered for……..how long?

Mezco's John Constantine got bumped to April hope that's still coming out too.

I don't know if it's the same situation but NECA has said they've eased up on reveals because supply chain problems have given them a backlog of delays. So they're waiting until they get product out to the customers before they start showing off new stuff.

Did they reveal the Goat dude and the guy with the Turban? Are we seeing two chararacters.

oh hey, mezco made a character with a skull face!

Well with those Cthulhu-esque pieces I'm definitely getting this guy. Assuming I win the battle at 1:00 of course.

Before Mezco takes any more pre-orders I'd really like to get the One:12 Mr. Freeze I paid for TWO YEARS AGO.

Easy pass. Cool animation, tho.

Got him- lots of cool pieces with this guy

He's mine. I was impressed with how easy that was.

Yeah really neat looking figure!

It's crazy how this figure had everything I expected it to come with, and then some. I love how just seems like another member of the BPRD.

They got me with the Cthulhu parts, would have been able to skip without them.
