Funko- Toy Fair 2018, Part 2

Funko have started, with their Mortal Kombat line, to do figures in the classic Masters of the Universe scale and style. They are widely expanding it with bunch of new series:

First up: Horror, which will have Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Pinhead, and Leatherface.

Conan the Barbarian, based on the classic 1982 fantasy movie:

And, Thundercats, which is probably the crossover I wanted to be able to do with my toys more than anything else, as a kid. Yes, I know we got a comic-book series a few years ago, but now you will be able to reenact it! Or, do it your way!

Come to think it, the idea of He-Man battling horror villains and teaming up with Conan and friends to battle Thulsa Doom who would be teaming up with King Hsss, is fucking awesome!

On to more Pops!!

"Garbage Pail Kids" Pops! What a time to be alive!

Have you been thinking to yourself, "You know what? There is simply not enough Deadpool merchandise out these?" If so, the following is for you!

And, now for the last batch I am showing, let's go with all the AWESOME Rick and Morty stuff that we are getting (or have gotten, in some cases)! FUCK YEAH!!!

 These above are already out, but, in stores, Scary Terry is really hard to find in brick and mortar stores.

I need all of the Rick and Morty merchandise, especially this Snowball!!!

Toy Fair 2016: Mezco Toyz

Let's continue my trip through my favorite booths to at Toy Fair with Mezco Toyz. They have some really awesome product lined up for 2016. So, let us start with some Marvel Comics stuff.

At the top you have two characters who are red hot right now (as well as being two of my personal favorite superheroes): Captain America and the Punisher. Their popularity is thanks to, at least in part to, the upcoming Captain America: Civil War and the currently on Netflix Daredevil season 2, respectively.

 

Dear God, I NEED the Punisher figures!

But, they ain't the only Marvel figures. To coincide with the aforementioned phenomenal Daredevil series we get some motherfucking Matt Murdock (left)! Three different versions of "the Devil of Hell's Kitchen", how fucking cool is that?!

DC fans do not despair, Mezco has you covered, too. You guys will be getting comic-book accurate depictions of the Reverse Flash, the Green Arrow, the Flash, and Superman (right). Fans looking for stuff from the recently released Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice will be pleased, too (below). Said movie maybe as uneven as fuck, but the figures kick super ass.

 

But, to me, the thing I like to see the most at this booth is, of course, the horror toys. And, they got a whole bunch of cool ones coming out! franchises include: Universal Classic Monsters, Hellraiser, and Child's Play. They are all too freaking cool!! My pocket will cry when these hit the shelves!

 

 

 

 Hmm, do you guys think that I should walk around that Chucky mask?

The cute Pinhead above isn't the only Hellraiser toy. Mezco is going all out for fans of the beloved and bloody franchise, especially for lovers of its' lead antagonist and Cenobite leader, Pinhead. Just look at the following toys. They are all amazing!

 

 

 

Here are a couple of more toys that really caught my eye at their booth:

 Fans of classic toon Gigantor rejoice! Look at what they got for you!

What's up doc?
