- I review the Mezco ToyzRobin. Any fan of Batman will know this Robin who finally joins the One:12 Collective! Batman & Robin are like PB&J, but do softgoods work on 1/12 scale action figures?

I love when you make up lore of the characters. It reminds me of Kristen Wiig going on talk shows as different characters/people and having no idea what she’s talking about. Comedy gold.
She is an absolute National Treasure
I've had this Robin for a few months now, but after watching this review and seeing all the awesome poses you did with him, I now realize how great this guy is!
Haha, that’s a compliment! Thank you
Patrick Gleason is the artist :) he was a DC artist for a while, he’s over at Marvel right now
Thank you so much!
Gleason's art was amazing
As a psychologist (and fellow collector and reviewer) it's like watch your Id and your superego arguing about your intrusive thoughts. Just love it! Keep going!
Haha! You nailed it
Really love your reviews man! Keep up the skits cuz they're fun to watch haha 😁👍
I appreciate that!
I recently got my first Mezco figures as well. The Christopher Reeve Superman and the deluxe Wolverine with Sentinel base.
The soft goods are definitely something to get used to, but I love the figures so much. The wolverine especially is amazing!
Glad to hear that. The Wolverine is very enticing
Never leave them posed. The fabric will tear and stretch out of shape
@@fillerbunnyninjashark271 So you buy an extremely expensive 1/12 figure and in the end you can't even pose it properly because the fabric is bad? if that's the case then I want Mezco products far away from me lol
@@LoneWalker59 these aren't extremely expensive. 100~ dollars for a 1/12 figure is average. The material mezco uses is known to have issues with tearing. I've not ever once had issues with any of the clothing on 3A figures or any other companies soft goods
I definitely recommend the Mezco "Man of Steel" Superman (the classic comic look, not the 2013 movie version) - one of the best Superman figures ever made with a ton of amazing accessories
Ohhhh I’ll check it out. Thank you
My favorite part of that figure is the light up heat vision head and the nice smiling face Superman. You don’t get a lot of happy Superman figures and if you do they look derpy.
Great review! I love the meta stuff you have been doing, it's super fun!
Thank you!
Dick Clark's Rocking Robin New Year's Eve. I think he did decapitate somebody in his first comic book appearances. Mezco do make some cool items.
Best comment. I really missed it like a big, dumb idiot
Fantastic figures!! I love my Mezco!! Super solid review and it was great to learn about Robin! Saves looking on wiki’s
Many thanks sir!
And you can definitely trust me!
05:25 nearly peeandpooped myself. you sir, made me laugh 😂
😂
Love your reviews! Amazing as always
Thank you
Its currently 10 at night, my wife and baby girl are both asleep as im watching this. That ending (the haters reaction to "just let him live") had me crying i was laughing so hard. My wife was not amused...............
😂 that’s great and awful at the same time
This guy us my 1st mezco as well, and damn was I impressed with the articulation, accessories, material and most importantly the feel. It feels like a solid figure eventhough he's short and thin. The ankles could use some improvement, but you can figure it out when you get to posing
Yeah!
I literally was LOL 😂 fun review great work my guy 🤙🏽
Glad you enjoyed
Formal Request to get the Mezco Iron Fist, cause that figure is SO BADASS. But honestly I enjoy it when you nerd out on your favorite franchises like X-Men and Turtles you can really tell the inner nerd in you comes out with those reviews
Haha, I appreciate that
I love the average commenter character you made I laughed everything he sighed at something inaccurate definitely would love to see more of him he is hilarious
Thank you so much
Good review, as always. Damian Wayne is my favorite Robin, but that is an unpopular opinion. Also, not to blow up your spot, but I think I figured out why you and your twin always look the same direction (camera left). I won't reveal it here just in case it is a spoiler reveal for later. But could you, you know, blink twice if I'm on to something of the long-game story arc variety?
Who knows
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Reading you loud and clear
@@NostalgiaUnboxedit’s all coming together 🤔☝️💡😀.
Can’t wait for a multiverse of Nostalgia Unboxed critics.
2:14 the yapper returns himself 😂
lol
I asked my somewhat rich godfather for a truckload of action figures,I been watching your videos to know the quality of the action figures I’m getting, awesome video!
Thank you
I’d super recommend the Mezco Man of Steel Superman, ~$100 bucks but it’s the perfect classic comic Superman, comes in a nice tin case, every conceivable Superman accessory and has light up heat vision eyes.
Seconded! I think the Mezco Man of Steel Superman is one of the best Superman figures ever made with pretty much every accessory you could possibly want for him!
Amazing. Thank you
As someone with zero knowledge of this character, this is all canon to me
As it should be
me being a artist, I love you for you're mentality.
Thank you
Great review! $95?!?...for a robin and it's not Carrie Kelley? Nope. 🤣🤣 Cheers!
😂
I keep seeing Chris Odonnell in sum of these shots and I'm diggin' it ❤️
nice
Seeing this review reminds me how much I want to own the Mezco green ranger 😅
Oh yeah!
You have to be pretty careful with that material they use on the torso, it breaks down over time, it'll start creasing and peeling from the fabric underneath.
That’s sad
Ngl Mezco is kind of hit or miss I have some of the older stuff i don’t like how it feels in hand but they did look great on display luckily they’ve improved so much the newer stuff is way better the Superman man of steel figure is so darn good especially if you pose him flying
We don’t talk about Batman 89 either
Mostly miss. Their greatest figure was still the DX punisher from almost a decade ago at this point
On a scale of 1-10 I’d say it’s a 8.75 Mezco missed out on a great opportunity to place storage on Robin to carry all the weapons
Mezco stopped trying years ago. The only company I know that can delay a figures for 5 years without saying anything and people continue to just blindly throw money at them
😢
Official request to replace a lot of the stammering and nervous chatter with cuts to disappointed Johnny N
Denied
Awesome vid… Johnathan 😁
Thank you
Dick Clarke looks pretty great! While on vacation, I saw him at quite a few shops, but that price kept me at arm's length ultimately. That said, I DID pick up The Fantastic Four set, and if you thought Dick came with a lot of stuff, phewwww, I haven't even fully unpacked that lunchbox yet.
Great review! If folks really are mad at you for talking the way you do, they should just… leave. The beauty of the internet is the freedom to just drop everything and move on. I'm thankful I found your channel, as it's informative AND entertaining, plus, your attention to whether a figure box includes credits for all involved opened my eyes to that part of collecting. Now I try to find the names behind figures when I can, try to appreciate what goes into these things.
Thank you so much! The F4 set looks so good!
I think Damien is cool but Dick Grayson and Tim Drake are my favorite Robins but I also like Jason Todd as Red Hood, However, The figure looks great especially with those dope accessories but my friend might get me the McFarlane Reborn Tim Drake Robin figure.
Sounds like a nice friend
Mezco makes the best batman figures period.. Robert Pattinson Batman will be coming out soon and I'm so stoked
I bet that one is awesome
Personally, I think Mezco really shines on their own IPs. The Rumble Society stuff is killer.
I hear good things
I hear good things!
Wow, I don't even have to react to your shenanigans now because you're reacting to them yourself in the video! Head shaking and disappointment included.
Jokes aside, great posing! I love the look of this Dick Clark.
Thanks! Lol
🤓Yet another great review Johnny and Johnny!!🧔🧔👍🕺
Thank you!
I have three Mezcos. They’re great figures, if you know what you’re getting yourself into articulation and joint-wise. Some of their joints can be pretty thin and snap easily with very little pressure applied. I am limiting myself to the Gangreene Estates horror line and whatever Lovecraftian adjacent figures they put out. Although, Dr. Doom has been tempting me for the past couple of months.
Man. That Doom is the best looking Doom ever. After their Batman 89 nightmare I swore the brand off until today haha
Same, that dr.doom looks awesome
i love this fig been thinking about grabbing one for a while. so far i have sovereign knight px, spidey 2099, and the turtles. this guy would fit in PERFECTLY
Sounds like a nice set so far
@@NostalgiaUnboxed thanks! When I secured a turtles PO I had to grab them some friends 🤣
It’s an awesome figure with amazing articulation for a figure with tailored fabric.
Absolutely!
Oooooooooo I see a nice motorcycle behind you there.
You know it!
7:13 perfect… now i shall stuff it with my random accessories!
lol
havent watched through yet but just off the title i know where its leading, i dont think robins the best to start with cus of the cape being a hinderance but the accessories are so good. iron fist was the first one that really blew me away so id recommend that as a starting point into mezco
And your thoughts after?
Classic Dick Clark! I'm just a little disappointed he doesn't come with his signature trumpet :(
So annoying
I would love this figure - I think it looks fantastic but… I’m concerned about the materials it is made of - pleather? Is it going to flake and fall apart? The “bruising” on the face aka staining from the cape dye etc. I’m really on the fence for $95. Convince me otherwise lol - I want this. Love your videos btw! And posing wow!
Haha, I totally get it. It's not easy dropping that kind of money
When will we get your review of the Kaneda bike on the shelf? 🤤
Whenever the Akira figure that’s on 5ktoys arrives
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Ooo k 🥺 not sure of its scale but would’ve Loved to see Damien posed on it with the signature slide.
I had Stan Lee on my McFarland ver.
@@Mak_Lad they are both “1/12” so we shall see! Hopefully it works out
At this point, I think it is a doll.
They’re all dolls
i got the mezco cable last year on sale. his future boots render his ankle articulation useless. he also sucks at holding his big gun with both arms. im really wary of jumping in again, but i really want the stormshadow.
That’s really disappointing to hear
I wonder how he would look next to the blue and grey Hush Batman by Mcfarlane
If I had him I would have used him in posing. Though that plastic cape would not be pleasant with the soft good of this
If you review a good Rumble Society fig, you'll have lots of fun with names 😂.
Haha, oh boy
The only mezco i own is the red pyramid thing, from silent hill 2, and it's totally worth it
Creepy!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Indeed 😅
I been wanting to get a mezco but I missed out on the gomez ronin figures and the wolverine samurai figure I wish they would get a re-release cuz there super expensive from second hand buyers
I love the idea of a Samurai Wolverine
Other Jonathan made you nervous. Don't let him get to you, I enjoy the off-the-cuff commentary!
This is your first Mezco, have you tried any Revoltech?
Not yet!
🦇Robin laid an egg! Just kidding!🥚🙃🤗🙋
Haha nice
Please review more import figures, love these reviews
Thank you
They're not 1/12 scale which is funny that they're called one twelve collective. Unless they think majority of people are almost 7 feet tall 😆
I stopped buying them years ago though because the stitching is almost never great, the fabric they use is cheap and tears super easy (I've had some that were already beginning to tear before I even posed them), their heads are gigantic, and the bodies are stuck in 2005
Perhaps older figures were the issue? Some people have said they are much better now
Robin is not 6’2”
@@BXTR_Werks_ 👍
I got the Crow for my first mezco and then Jason Vorhees is my only other one. I really want more tho especially Atticus Doom
Ohhhhh yeah a solid choice and that Crow figure is great
I absolutely love both of them. I think some of them are a little bit too small. The Jason is a great figure but is scaled a tad too small to be an unkillable homicidal maniac. One of his heads has a gash in the forehead where you can put any of his weapons except his pitchfork
I guess they just call anything 1/12 scale now.
🤷
Mezco is my favorite. Not the old ones, they are killing it now. I like Mezco because it's the total package. The stand, top notch, they have the best accessories and it even comes with a bag for parts. Mayfex comes with a genaric stand. The soft goods are my favorite because it's just different. I can stand less articulation for something that completely stands out from my marvel legends!
I can totally get that!
Mezco is great but there superheros tend to miss for me as the spandex supersuits never look like spandex, but stuff like this robin or figures wearing so ewhat normal clothing always look top notch
I think nothing beats their Doom figure
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Great Review
Thanks
You got a bruised Wayne ?
Nice!
Nice which akira bike Is that?
Bandai. 2004 Tokyo Motor Show Limited Edition Kaneda's Bike
Its a great figure just definitely need a Batman with him. This Robin which i know you already know just joking in the review is actually Damien Wayne aka Bruce's legitimate son.
Also the best Batman to pair him with is the Sovereign Knight which now hes a bit pricey now but he's definitely worth tracking down also the Sovereign Knight is pretty much s modern look of batman inspirated by his comic looks where he's in his prime fighting crime.
I have two exclusive versions of the suit being the all black suit and the 89 inspired look but need the classic grey and black look to go with him. As well the issue with this Robin he's slightly taller than what Robin should be.
Especially since this is Damien wayne which people complained about a bit but he's definitely a good Robin figure and Mezco's first Robin they did since there was a large thing with the owner of Mezco Toyz who goes by Mez hating the idea of a Robin especially him being a big Batman fan thinking in a real life situation that "his" Batman figures with his unique take on his batman trilogy line from Ascending Knight (Year one inspired), Sovereign Knight Batman (modern in his prime look), and Supreme Knight (Dark knight returns inspirated) doesn't need a Robin.
Which Mez admitted in a video call interview stream with TheToypaige on Instagram said he doesn't like Robin and never thought the idea of a little kid in bright colors fighting crime with Batman made sense.
Yet, Mez admitted when he started the Mezco One:12 line he did The Dark Knight Returns Batman figures abd it haves a Robin in the story. So it was a big surprise when this figure went up to pre-order and released since a lot of Mezco fans thought we never wiuld have gotten a Robin and now we have a Golden Age Dick Grayson Robin next that is supposed to release this year in August hopefully so now we have a modern Robin and a Classic Golden Age Robin.
Hate him or not he knows people want it and that's. money lol
Oh ya and he was the only robin to kill folks. Batman said hey cut that shit out so he swore to only maim going forward. He actually took a head home to dad thinking he’d be rewarded like a cat w a bird on your doorstep
Best version of him is the Merry Little Batman movie
Do you mean to keep messing up the size comparison part? That’s like 3 times now
Please point out the issue you seem to have
Not sure if this was sarcastic or not, but….
Usually for the height comparison you do a really nice edit with a sound effect and the figures pop in. But in a couple of recent videos your hand can be seen placing the figure in the shot. I’m just wondering if that is intentional
@@Rumblefiah intentional
Ok well now I know 😂
Are you going to review the Mezco TMNT figures?
I am not
Cool looking figure 👍👍👍👍🥐
Yeah!
I dunno I don’t think they really captured the likeness of Solomon Grundy with this one
lol
I’ve been thinking of this one
Think no more
My first mezco was leatherface lol and my second Halloween 2
Nice!
Daemon wasn’t a mistake. I believe he’s a test tube baby.
Ouch
I was visibly confused when the words ''Battlebat'' left your mouth.
😂
DAng, his brother is giving him a hard time.
He’s the least favorite child
Im lowkey scared to buy off of that site, is it safe?
Of course it’s safe
😂😂 mistaking Damien Wayne for Dick Grayson.😂😂.
No. It’s Dick CLARK. C-L-A-R-K
It was not a mistake. No siree bob.
Agreed
Formal request to keep those cut aways to 2007 era RUclips angry reviewer skits, your humor and charm is absolutely wonderful and they don't pad time with empty word salads, you're expressing reactions with silly goofs and laughs. Words ARE hard, and you do great. :]
😂 that other commenter forgets they can go watch the other 1,000 channels that don’t like to have fun.
Damian Wayne. Batman’s son conceived w Talia Al Ghul. Created by grant Morrison. There now you know And it’s fine that ya didn’t 😘. Love ya.
Dick Clark. And yes, I am actually aware lol
Stop being so mean to yourself! In the next video tell your other self the comments section said that...or something.
Haha! Thank you
This Robin is Damian Wayne right?
Yes
5:27 😂
🤓
$100 is expensive for a 1/12. but considering some sh figuarts are about $80, 100 for soft goods isnt terrible but i wouldnt spend that much 😂
It’s tough
This guy goes for $70-80 from what I’ve seen on eBay
Whenever i get figure with base i get a bit moist…
Oh lord
Dick Clarke? Isn't that Damian Wazowski?
You’re confused. That’s the guy from the Wayne’s world movie
I think that Damien
@@Doom1984 yes
I would say you should’ve started with either the Wolverine or the superman
Nah
Ok, I’m gonna start with both of those and also could you review both
The only thing I dont like about this Damien is the height, I really wish he was shorter
Totally understand that!
@NostalgiaUnboxed I guess that kinda goes for all figures tho IMO they usually aren't the correct height
Other than the price the only thing i dont like about mezco is that they steal your deposit if you dont cough up money in less than a week after waiting a year or more to get one . I will never buy a product from mezco .
Which is why I won’t buy direct. They Keaton Batman was a mess
@@NostalgiaUnboxed i heard about the batman fiasco . I was tempted to get blade and conan but aftermarket is so high i probably will never bite .
Dick Clark’s the best robin
Hands down.
Isn’t that Tim?
It’s Damien
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Really? His hair and face look off. Though upon closer inspection that does look like his suit.
I thought this was damian Wayne?
It is lol
You should have got wolverine
Nah. I got what I got
@@NostalgiaUnboxed than you wasted ur money lmao
@@spidercrash obviously. It’s like they say, “if you want a good Robin from DC Comics, get a Wolverine from Marvel”
@@NostalgiaUnboxed what is ur logic 🤦
@@spidercrash my logic? I got a Robin and you told me I “should have got Wolverine”. What is YOUR logic? 🤦
too bad it is too big compare to Bats & Supes scale
@@mexicanlegoman8043 yeah that’s true
I have a feeling you didn't take 40 minutes to talk about the stuff.
The power of editing means we will never know!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed oh no
I love Mezco but some of the figures look to stubby.
And you feel that way with this one or no?
@@NostalgiaUnboxedwell this one works because this version of robin (Damian Wayne) is a little kid, but for example there Batman is too bulky, wide, and stubby. (In my opinion)
messed up because you spent a bit more $ on a more quality action figure and made a video for likes on it ...? You guys are so confusing . I'd do a bit more research and pick a better figure . You cant fault a 1st time buy based on a figure that isnt recent and updated .
Who is faulting the figure?
You should check out Mezco creations like Rumble Society figures or Void Cadet Gomez, there are truely awesome.
Maybe! They do not intrigue me from photos alone though
He should be way shorter
Need a Bat to see
The plaid shirt you is so annoying. He's such a stickler.
lol
