The hard thing about buying a $100 dollar toy is that it isn't a toy anymore. It takes the fun out of moving it around and playing with it. I love my collection but sometimes I just wanna play and not be worried about breaking something that's $100
Thanks for buying these so we don’t have to. The only way I’d buy something in this price range is if it was a figure I loved and NO ONE else made one (Lockjaw?) Grau (good review as usual)
Great video, your collection is as impressive as ever! Definitely an expensive figure that MEZCO Darkseid, but an incredible addition to your collection. I got my first two MEZCO figures last year at SDCC 2018.
I have this coming in from BBTS and now I am regretting paying the price but I am a huge Darkseid fan.. Awesome video talker and you got yourself a new sub!
All I'm saying is for a guy who doesn't like to pose you have the greatest pose of our times in your mafex section. I died when I saw it.lol well done sir well done.
I remember buying the 1st Mezco Batman for $60 and being pretty happy with my purchase. Mezco has lost its way... hopefully Neca can drop that Superman 2 pack and I can pair that with the Storm Collectibles Darkseid
Finally, i've been looking for a Darkseid action figures checklist.. Please correct me if i'm wrong 1. 4:51 Mattel CnC DCUC Darkseid 2. 5:39 DC Direct New Gods Series Darkseid 3. 5:53 Mattel DCSH Darkseid 4. 6:15 DC Direct Deluxe Darkseid & Orion Two Pack 5. 6:33 DC Direct Superman/Batman series Darkseid (he looks different bcs of the style of the comic book) 6. 7:03 Mattel DC Unlimited Darkseid New 52 7. 7:18 DC Icons Darkseid & Grail Two Pack 8. 7:40 DC Collectibles Darkseid Waiting for Storm Collectibles Darkseid And also, there is a DCUC/DCSH Mattel Darkseid (not cnc) with a slightly darker classic costume
The most sensible opinion I've heard so far about this figure. I'll keep my Mattel C&C figure for now. I mean, the Mezco one doesn't even has the DC Collectibles level of texture detail (I don't like the New 52 Darkseid design or extreme height, but still). The lightup feature is just a novelty like the material. Collectors don't care about those things. We care about design, detail, articulation and value, most of the time, in that order. Thanks for helping me make up my mind about not buying this figure. I hate buyer's remorse!
they are creating products for another class of consumers ... of course we will not miss plastics and maybe will appear metallic as the iron man of hot toys
You have an awesome collection. I agree that Mezco Darkseid should not be more than $150, the polystone is useless, you'd get the same look using plastic too. Also about the Comicave hulkbuster be careful as lots of KOs are floating in the market even on Ebay. The official release just don't seem to happen soon.
Great review ! I like your honesty. One of the things that I like about your reviews is that you compared your figures with other figures of the same character. Also, your reviews are different. Some other people have like a script that they follow for all their reviews. The Darkseid figure that has the gloves, that you stated that it was from DC Direct, it's a DC Universe Classics ( Mattel) Collect and Connect figure. That it's still one of my favorite Darkseid figures. Darkseid is my favorite villain. I have most of your Darkseid figures, except the old DC Direct figure that uses a battery. I have a couple of more Darkseid figures. The Darkseid figure that you stated that had weird eyes, it is from DC Direct. If I am not mistaken, it is from a return of Supergirl story line. The artist was Michael Turner, and he drew Darkseid that way. I was saving money to buy the Mezco figure, which looks amazing, but the limited articulation of the elbows and how fragile the figure might be, it scared me away. I would hate for the figure to fall down. The price tag is also too high. If it was cheaper, maybe, I would buy it, but I am pretty sure that the figure will go up in price. Now, I have to be honest, the sculpting is superb. I love the head sculpts, the boots, the belt, the light up feature, the mother box and even the cape. What really got my attention were the head sculpts and the boots but paying almost $ 200 is not worth it for me.
@@TalkerArt Thank you for the information. There is one that is down in price to $ 150 , but that is the current bid. I won't pay $ 150 + for that figure. It is a shame that Mezco did not do a plastic figure, just like they did with their Gladiator Hulk figure. That would have dropped the price to about $ 100.
This was a release to be skipped by all of us Mezco collectors, that way they’d know they dropped the ball with this release, not worth the excessive cost at all.
You shouldn't have bought it, simple as that. That's the price of a hot toys and this figure isn't that great. I'm sorry to tell you, that's a bad move. Because mezco will keep raising their prices as long as people are dumb enough to throw their money away. There is no reason for that figure to cost that much. It should be the same price as the other ones. I still think $80 it's too much. They should cost, at the most, $50.
@@TalkerArt I agree with you. Many times when I've been broken and I went to the store (Walmart, Target) I saw figures I didn't have, so I had to choose between buying food or a figure, I could get a good amount of food for $20. So yeah, even $20 it's a lot.
Mattel build and connect Darkseid is the best one. It is bigger, better head ,neck overall proportions, better sculpt, New Gods killing glove with alternative hand, classics costume, better price and is made of plastic not fragile poly stone.
Bro, you are killing me😄 It’s collecting, of it cost too much don’t buy it! That’s the rule! And you are like the greatest Collector, with awesome DarkSide figures already. That inner kid got your wallet bro😉✨👊🏾
You Know the Rules, You don't get a brake , They make the Action figure, You Spent the money, if they start making Figures out of Porcelain , you can't play or touch or Don't even take it out of the Box, It get buried with you when you Die.
Great review. Mezco has gone crazy thinking their figures are worth Hot Toys $$. This one was an easy pass for me. I hope for those who bought it that the price doesn't go down, but I think the market is gonna bring this guy down like it has already for their Gladiator Hulk.
But this figure is nice, but not so great to me. I actually prefer the tall ones you have already. To me, the talk version is a better representation of DarkSide the New God. Towering, evil and powerful as hell! The Mezco version is good, but frankly, I rather have another Tiger Striped Wolverine unboxed to hold onto when my unboxed version wears out.😄 In other words, not that hyped about this guy. So the price is immaterial. But hey, thanks forthe review as always bro. I look forward to your videos. Always.👊🏾💎💎💎
You can't blame anyone because you have an addiction to MARVEL & DC TOYS "Action figures" You Choose to spend $200, on one action figure, You can't complain about Bills adding up ,or the wife being MAD now. I've never seen a DARKSEID with an INFINITY Gauntlet? What Comic book had that in it? I have a "SUPER POWERS Darkseid with mechanical Claw , I don't see you have it there , It's Cool to see your collection.
Anyone think this figure has gigantic heads? And yeah...how ridiculous they went with polystone. Obviously they had the $180 price point set; so the polystone/metal was certainly a way to justify essentially a $100 figure.
@schwiggity Oh yeah, I know about it being resin with powdered stone added to make it heavier. I never thought about it being "cheap". Guess cause it's super heavy and polystone statues look better than those $45/50 Marvel/DC ones. Funny how everything that's made out of it is $150 a tiny statue and beyond. I have a few polystone items..they look real nice. But if it's so cheap to produce a figure out of it..why charge soooo much more? Might be due to the difficult process of moulding with the material. Or simply companies are assholes because they want to project a "Hey it's heavy..so you know it's quality!"
so your against ebaying but its okay to buy 200$ of a fig of a company. What's the difference between one greedy person vs 1 greedy company? ur going against the one man trying to pay his bills but its okay for the company...? GIVE US UR LOGIC SIR lol.
It totally is not a perfect action figure, the articulation is minute, the price outrageous, the accessories lackluster, but one would just justify it by the sacrifice you did to pay for it
I can't believe you bought this man what happened to our screw Mezco thing j/k it's your 💰, I'm glad you at least realize that the $200 is nuts....this sucker topped the Gladiator Hulk lol...for most spent on St(action) figures 💩
A $200 cape 😬 yikes 😅 I don't wanna say that toy sucks, but, it's damn close. The cac is way better all day every day. This one's arms and legs look like play doh and he's got a giraffe neck 😐
“Well make him out of polystone which is pretty stupid” 😂😂 this figure is trash imo for that price and little articulation/ the same as a 7 point action figure smfh. honestly this figure is only good for ACBA users because it does look great but that’s it! Just looks, Maybe get a couple cool flicks. wish this figure could be put in a sitting/squatting position to have him sit on a throne of some sort. But yeah action figures are getting pricey and not even getting extra accessories! The cape is such a nice touch but man...I think I’d rather get the dcuc cnc darkseid looks simpler but I’m a college student on a budget! Plus I’m still trying to complete my dcuc/ multiverse collection
The hard thing about buying a $100 dollar toy is that it isn't a toy anymore. It takes the fun out of moving it around and playing with it. I love my collection but sometimes I just wanna play and not be worried about breaking something that's $100
And this is almost 200
Very good point
Yep I barely touch my rare Mezcos bc I don't wanna mess them up...stain the clothing etc....and marvel legends I pose constantly.
Very true brother. Especially when you get a $120 Mafex or mezco and it has qc issues
the honesty in your reviews it what makes this one of the best youtube channels
Mario Delgado thx
i take fat bong rips and watch these vids to unwind after night shift. You rock Talker.
FIREston & Friends thx bro
I was laughing throughout the whole review because you kept reminding yourself of the price.🤣
MrKrushgutz it’s hard not to
Love ur videos and also my favorite part is how you show all the previous action figures u have.Awesome
My girlfriend is Marcaline thx
Amazing collection you have....
Injustice darkseid is my fave collectible...for sure you wonna have it ...
i really wish they would start a new release of superman with 2 or 3 versions. the classic ones are nearing 350-400 CAD$ shipped on ebay and amazon.
5:22, that's the Mattel Collect & Connect Darkseid. Definitely my favourite hands-down.
Thanks for buying these so we don’t have to. The only way I’d buy something in this price range is if it was a figure I loved and NO ONE else made one (Lockjaw?) Grau (good review as usual)
Love your take on mezco Darkseid your honest review on a 200 Dollar figure great take
I’m going to wait for the Storm Collectable Injustice Darkside.
David Nguyen that’s a good one
Me too! Very excites for that figure especially when he was on of my main characters to play as in injustice 2
TalkerArt 200 for a 1/12 scale figure? I’ll have to get a second mortgage for these figures. But they’re pretty cool looking. Great review as always.
Great video, your collection is as impressive as ever! Definitely an expensive figure that MEZCO Darkseid, but an incredible addition to your collection. I got my first two MEZCO figures last year at SDCC 2018.
This thing looks absolutely killer but I would want some of that sculpt sacrificed for some added articulation. Pose. Play. Display. .........
I have this coming in from BBTS and now I am regretting paying the price but I am a huge Darkseid fan.. Awesome video talker and you got yourself a new sub!
extt2005 wish you would’ve waited there already gone down in value on eBay thanks for the sub
Darksid looks so menacing I hate the price but love that fig . awesome review as always bud Keep up the awesome work
I made a decision to not spend over $80 for an action figure, thank you for reviewing and putting things into perspective.
All I'm saying is for a guy who doesn't like to pose you have the greatest pose of our times in your mafex section. I died when I saw it.lol well done sir well done.
Worldbreakerkou Mezco is the only ones I pose
U should get the bad blood vs enforcer predator 2 pack by neca. The bad blood looks insane with the helmet.
DC Collectibles needs to release a 1/12 scale Darkseid...just scale down the big one they released with that Grail figure
Man I'm surprised that you were not nominated in the TNI website as one of the reviewers of the year. You are easily in the top 3!
Juan Arasa ya fuck that list
@@TalkerArt yup ghey sh!t

3. 5:53 Mattel DCSH Darkseid
4. 6:15 DC Direct Deluxe Darkseid & Orion Two Pack
5. 6:33 DC Direct Superman/Batman series Darkseid (he looks different bcs of the style of the comic book)
6. 7:03 Mattel DC Unlimited Darkseid New 52
7. 7:18 DC Icons Darkseid & Grail Two Pack
8. 7:40 DC Collectibles Darkseid
Waiting for Storm Collectibles Darkseid
And also, there is a DCUC/DCSH Mattel Darkseid (not cnc) with a slightly darker classic costume
If Mezco goes up to 150$. Year 2020, multiple mezcos starting at 150. Taller you saw the future.
Why does Darkseid looks like he's always down to Disco 🕺
His stripper boots, as j.hernandez calls em

Damn....remember when figs were under 10 bucks and standard imports were under 50 smh?
Ahh...the good ol days

I noticed a boom tube off to the side in this video, 1:20 so the forecast looks like Evil with a chance of Parademons in the evening
Won't be surprised to see mezco release two more variations, or perhaps an ultimate varient, given their mentality for money grabbing.
Dc collectibles best one 👍👍👍👍 all the large dc figures are amazing darkseid . Soloman grundy . Titan joker. clay face. Amazing 👍👍👍
WazzyMohawk Grundy 👍🏻
You should have waited and bought the Storm Collectables Darkseid from the injustice 2 video game, that figure looks awesome!!
