This morning, I had the privilege of attending my first event for the 2015 Toy Fair season. Each year, the guys from Mezco hold a special preview event for press about a week before Toy Fair in order to show off their yearly wares. It’s a small, intimate, and fun. This year had about a dozen or so members of the press in attendance, which was better than last year, when a snowstorm made it so I was one of three people who were there when the event started.

I won’t get into too many specifics today, as there really aren’t many. First will be pics from the preview event, and then I will go into a detailed look at the One:12 Batman, which i got to special some quality review time with.

Bugs Bunny 24″ Figure

Bugs Bunny was just announced earlier this week as a new property from Mezco. Right now there are no plans on more figure outside of this one. They are going to see how sales are of this figure, which looks amazing and is greatly detailed to look like our favorite “Wascally Wabbit”.

One:12 Batman Review

After visiting the showroom, I got the change to have some time with one of the One:12 Batman figures. I will be honest, I was on the fence with this figure… until today. This figure is awesome. One of the most detailed, most accessorized, and realistic figures I have seen in a long time. From the real fabric outfit to the various ways you can pose him, I would consider this figure flawless. A must have for any Batman collector. Take a look at my unboxing.
