Mezco will soon feature Adam West and Burt Ward as their classic TV characters in a new wave of vinyl figures. Just like the 1966 Batman TV show, this series will feature the Batmobile based on the vision of crazy car designer George Barris, along with Batman’s rogue’s gallery of The Penguin, The Joker, Catwoman, The Riddler and a Riddler thug. These should hit stores in July.
Powie!!! Mezco will go back to 1966 for its next vinyl Batmobile set. Whammm!!! 2-inch versions of Adam West and Burt Ward as their caped crusaders can ride in the cockpit. Zzzzwap!!!It will release in July or you can pre-order it here.
Mezco kicked off its New York Toy Fair announcements early this week with a sneak peek at several new action figure lines. First off, we got a closer look at the Walter White/Heisenberg fig from Breaking Bad. Another big announcement revolved around the new Axe Cop line of toys. Mezco also expanded its 14-inch ThunderCats line with Cheetara, who now sports ball jointed hips. The little green guys from Mars Attacks will soon get their own 3.75-inch line of figures along with a 24-inch tall Martian (not pictured). MTV Geek got the exclusive on the new DC Universe Mez-Its including characters from Man of Steel and The Dark Knight. For more pics and announcements, check out the Mezco website.
