Hahahaha! Darkseid for the WIN! He really is so much better in hand than the video shows. I tried to take good snapshots but they just don’t do it justice.
Very cool Darkseid! He lookd like he would go well on my DCUC Justice League vs Legion of Doom shelf. I hsve the DC Direct Darlseid(I like the size of it's head in proportion to the body) and the Superman series that became DCUC Darlseid which is very cool and articulated but I think it has a small head for a Darkseid representation. Cheers :)
I have him and I like him, I do wish you didn't have to pull his head off to turn his eyes on, and I wish that his eyes looked more red when the lights aren't on. I actually leave him displayed with the omega beams on cause he just doesn't look right with the lights off and I don't want to have to pull his head off every time I want to look at him. Might just be me though idk
This figure looks f**king epic. I haven’t heard a single person complain about the “details” on it. Just not sure if it’s worth $180. That’s nearly Hot Toys prices for a 1/12 scale figure.
Hey Mr. DC Geek, have you seen the Storm collectibles Darkseid? Now that is an amazing action figure, and cheaper than this Mezco one with this overgrown head!!!!
Hi I have a question does this Darkseid Mezco figure scale with the Mezco Superman Man of Steel 1/12 figure? Is Darkseid that much bigger than Superman ?? For this Darkseid Mezco figure and the Mezco Superman Man of Steel 1/12 figure ?? Is that the size difference between Superman and Darkseid ??
I love it. The only Darkseid I own is the DC Direct one, the one that came with the glove I lost. BTW did you ever get the Mezco Batman Beyond? I got one on ebay for $99 last week. And on topic of rulers and emperors- I really hope that Mezco makes a Doctor Doom!
Very good review! They should've magnetize the mother box in the front of the belt, it's a cool figure but waaaaay to expensive....especially for us Canadians ;)
When this went up for preorder I was stoked. When I saw the first review I was kinda let down for $180. But after watching your review it reminds me so much of the Kenner super powers darkseid. Now I have to have this and display with my sh figuarts Trinity!!!
I want this so bad but I won't be picking him up as I missed out on that superman and I don't want one without the other lol very sad I know... Awesome vid tho Brad, looking forward to your shots on IG 🔥
I guess I'm in the minority here, but this figure is a huge disappointment. Nobody asked for polystone. The utter lack of articulation is absurd. $180 for DCUC level articulation? Pass. I'll stick with my DCUC Darkseid if that's the case.

The Mr. Miracle effects in your video are really neat!
12:02, not going to lie, Darkseid really shines when you give him his entourage. Wow.
Yessir he does!
Nice one Brad!!! Keep up the great job

The only one I want now is the DCD Kirby version. Maybe the Icons and Mattel new 52.
Terrific reveiw! Very cool figure! Thanks for sharing!

And yeah I agree on the belt too it really doesn't want to stay even
Hey man, it takes all kinds. If you like the omega beams on then go with it! 👍
So yours does that too....hmmmm. So it may be a running problem then. That’s kinda stinky.
Don’t mind me. Just looking at this to compare to the McFarlane’s new Darkseid. What do you think of that one??
Enjoy your vids! This review really helped me make the decision on deciding to buy him or not 🥴👌🏻✨
This figure looks f**king epic. I haven’t heard a single person complain about the “details” on it. Just not sure if it’s worth $180. That’s nearly Hot Toys prices for a 1/12 scale figure.
I found it on eBay for $125 this morning
Great review like always!!!
Hey Mr. DC Geek, have you seen the Storm collectibles Darkseid? Now that is an amazing action figure, and cheaper than this Mezco one with this overgrown head!!!!
amazing figure if not for the price, definitely a second hand buy for the right price.
Really cool
I love the height comparison of mezco custom supes and darkseid. I hope i see more photos of this guys batteling out on instagram..
I’ll see what I can do. 🙂👍
Brad The DC Universe Geek thank you! I appriciate it!
You should glue that foam figure cutout to the wall like Darkseid crashed through it lol.
Right! It got such a loony tunes vibe!
AMAZING!!!!!!

An the only one that made LEGION figures was Mattel's DC Universe line. So it's hard to get Legion figures to fight HIM- "Great Darkness Saga"!
The cloth looks like synthetic leather which may peel the color over time or over frequent pose.
Nice figure though, fits perfectly with DCUC line.
I love it. The only Darkseid I own is the DC Direct one, the one that came with the glove I lost. BTW did you ever get the Mezco Batman Beyond? I got one on ebay for $99 last week. And on topic of rulers and emperors- I really hope that Mezco makes a Doctor Doom!
I like the detail but im not sure about the mini dress and thigh high boots lol , not my fav design but still cool tho.
Definitely using this with the Mafex Justice League. Looks good and looks similar to Zack Snyder's vision for Darkseid. Totally badass.
BEST DARKSEID EVER!!!
True story!
Nope, have you seen the Storm collectibles Darkseid, he is awesome!
he's also made of poly stone
Very good review! They should've magnetize the mother box in the front of the belt, it's a cool figure but waaaaay to expensive....especially for us Canadians ;)
I know right! Soooo expensive. I had it preordered for months and just worked it into my budget. It’s my big ticket item for the year.
At that price, it's pretty disappointing that he doesn't have the elbow articulation to get his arms folded behind his back in his classic pose.
I could still get them there but it pull them to the max.
Love Darkseid, this is a must for me.
He can be found for not much over the initial price still!
Thanks, I really want one. Darkseid is one of my all time favorite DC bad guy....loved the super powers one as well.
Big fan of the tin packaging. The price demands a premium box. Darkseid himself is delicious. So happy Mezco didn't put cloth clothing on him.
Yeah I can imagine him having just regular cloth goods. The leathery stuff definitely works well.
I want a company doing a monumental version of this character at this price to make some breakthroughs in hinges so that I could cross it's arms.
Well have to see what the Injustice version will be like. Him and Lobo look fantastic.
how does he scale next to DC Essentials
those are about 7 inches, so he's still going to be pretty big next to them.
When this went up for preorder I was stoked. When I saw the first review I was kinda let down for $180. But after watching your review it reminds me so much of the Kenner super powers darkseid. Now I have to have this and display with my sh figuarts Trinity!!!
Dude, that is a great idea for a display!
I have a hard time taking him seriously with his leather mini-skirt.
lol.
DARKSEID COMES WITH HIS OWN SHADOW LOL
I want this so bad but I won't be picking him up as I missed out on that superman and I don't want one without the other lol very sad I know... Awesome vid tho Brad, looking forward to your shots on IG 🔥
I wish DC would give this man some pants the mini skirt needs to go.
They did in the new 52 and I'm pretty sure the Rebirth has some too but it's more a suit with leg parts.
Also. It's a Tunic not a skirt but still
Blasphemer!
Componenets.
I guess I'm in the minority here, but this figure is a huge disappointment. Nobody asked for polystone. The utter lack of articulation is absurd. $180 for DCUC level articulation? Pass. I'll stick with my DCUC Darkseid if that's the case.
wow Brad, u bought such an overpriced expensive figure... IMO, DC Icons Darkseid is better than this... and much cheaper too...
