*SPOILER ALERT* Later sections in this review mention plot points in the film. Nothing too major, but you might wanna skip the bottom third of this review if you've yet to see "The Dark Knight Rises".
Hot on the heels of "The Dark Knight Rises" making it's way into theaters, Mezco Toyz sent along a set of their Dark Knight Rises Mez-Itz for us to check out. Like their previous comic-style Mez-Itz, these consist of 2" figures grouped on two-packs and a Batmobile set coupled with a Batman figure. We reviewed the other Mez-Itz Batmobile, but this time we're dealing with a Tumbler! Join us as we take a quick look at the tiny Caped Crusader as he tries to stop the destruction of Gotham City!

As we prepare for our journey to the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con in order to see the future of pop culture, a box was delivered to us that flooded our minds with memories of the distant 1990s. Mezco Toyz has released an all new 6" figure based on everyone's favorite worm-based hero (with the exception of Wyrm from vintage TMNT, of course): Earthworm Jim! Like all of Mezco's toy offerings (including their SDCC offerings), he has a certain amount of cool-factor that makes him a great addition to our shelves. Read on for a full review of Jim!

The Snow White fairytale has seen a massive resurgence lately thanks to TV shows like Once Upon a Time and movies like ,the appropriately named, Snow White & The Huntsman. Today though, MTV Geek is going to be spending time with a version of Snow White that doesn't have a drunken Thor to help her against the Queen. Oh, and this version of the Queen has a giant gaping maw-- and also is in the form of a creepy-ass doll! Join us as we take a closer look at Snow White and her Evil Stepmother, the Queen, from Mezco Toyz' Living Dead Dolls Scary Tales Vol. 4!

Toy Fair 2012: Mezco Talks ThunderCats Mumm-Ra and Panthro Figures
It's a well-known fact that, in fiction, the bad guys always look cooler-- in reality, not so much. Of course, this is MTV Geek and reality is a place we rarely waste time in! Today we're reviewing one of the 80's greatest animated antagonists: Mumm-Ra the Ever-Living! Yes, Lion-O's enemy #1 has seen yet another action figure release thanks to the resurgence of ThunderCats popularity; however, this time it's not only the vintage version, but he's friggin' HUGE! Today we're taking a closer look (one so thorough, it's borderline creepy) at Mezco Toyz' ThunderCats Classic Mumm-Ra Mega-Scale action figure!

Toy Fair 2012: Mezco Toyz Scares Up the Universal Monsters
As we roll ever closer to Halloween (Hey, it's only 5 months away!), it seems that the Universal Monsters have been scaring up lots of new action figures, and in a variety of scales, based on their classic likenesses. While a couple of companies have tossed their hat into the monster-making ring, Mezco Toyz has decided to bring out something so huge it has its own system of measurement: Monster Scale! That's right, Mezco has once again resurrected Frankenstein's Monster, (Check out their smaller version here.)and this time he clocks in at 18 inches tall! We first saw this guy filling up plenty of a display case in the Mezco booth during Toy Fair 2012, and every time we see new photos of him, we're reminded of how we can't wait to have that stylized corpse on our shelf-- and that we're gonna have to make a bigger shelf!
While the villagers fearfully ready their pitchforks and torches, read on to find out all the info on this stylized take on the patchwork abomination!

Toy Fair 2012: Mezco Toyz Scares Up The Universal Monsters
The Universal Monsters, and the films they terrorized, are an integral component to American film history and we are glad to see the ol' Gang of Horrors getting their due with a number of action figure and toy releases. While Diamond Select Toys have been bringing out Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, and a number of others in their Select-scale, our pals over at Mezco Toyz are planning a full barrage of monsters in all styles and sizes! We gazed at the entire lineup during Toy Fair 2012, and now we're that much closer to owning them with the latest announcement that the 9" Frankenstein will be the first release! The styling on these hearkens back to Mezco's earlier lines like Gangsters Inc., Reservoir Dogs, and the stylized Tony Montana from "Scarface" with realistic texturing placed over more exaggerated sculpts. We can't wait to have this re-animated monster on our shelves in time for Halloween!
Read on for all the info straight from Mezco Toyz, along with a shot of the variant version of Frankenstein's Monster!
