SDCC 2017: Mezco ONE:12 Collective Thor Ragnarok Figures!

The most-anticipated day of the year for collecting news has finally arrived, and Mezco Toyz is kicking it off with a Hulk-sized, thunderous roar! While San Diego Comic Con 2017 preview night won’t begin for a few more hours, Mezco has already unleashed some major previews of what we’ll be seeing at the show–their first-ever MCU ONE:12 Collective Marvel movie figures of Thor Ragnarok Gladiator Hulk and Thor!

SDCC 2017 Mezco Gladiator Hulk ONE 12 Collective Figure

Up until now, every Mezco Marvel ONE:12 Collective figure that we’ve seen (no, a text-only announcement of Spider-Man Homecoming Spidey absolutely does not count) has been comic book-based.

But that trend has come to an end today, as Mezco Toyz has now revealed two MCU figures that they’ll be showing off in all their glory at SDCC 2017 Preview Night tonight: Gladiator Thor and Hulk from this fall’s Thor Ragnarok movie!

MEZCO TOYS SDCC 2017 Thor Ragnarok Gladiator Hulk Figure and AccessoriesGladiator Hulk is the huge reveal here, as we’ve never gotten an oversized ONE:12 Collective figure up until now. We only see him in photos by himself thus far with no one else to compare him to for scale, but I think we can be reasonably confident that this Mezco Gladiator Hulk is gonna be a big boy.

ONE:12 Collective Hulk doesn’t come with a whole ton of accessories–an alternate yelling head, an axe, a hammer, six interchangeable hands–but the size and beautiful attire for this figure are going to be the main attraction here. This is gonna be a hot seller for Mezco Toyz.

This will be the first time that we see the God of Thunder in ONE:12 Collective figure form from Mezco, as there’s been no classic Thor figure put up for order to date. Obviously this version of Thor isn’t going to cut it for comic purist fans, so hopefully we see a true comic book Thor figure announced as well before too long.

The sculpting detail and paint deco on the Mezco Gladiator Thor action figure both looks absolutely outstanding. I’m a bit disappointed that Thor only has two heads with stoic expressions that display neither joy nor ferocity, I think this figure is a real winner and will offer a lot to collectors who want an upgrade from the Marvel Legends Gladiator Thor.

SDCC 2017 Mezco Toyz Spider-Man Homecoming ONE 12 Collective Figure Coming SoonThe ONE:12 Collective Thor Ragnarok figures should be up for order sometime this summer, and are expected to be released in 2018. I’ll post more concrete details and information as they’re revealed at the 2017 SDCC event that begins officially tonight. It’s unclear whether we’ll see any of the actual Spider-Man Homecoming figure at the show or if we’ll have to wait a bit longer for that reveal–stay tuned.

Sound off, Marvel fans! It’s the first major reveal of San Diego Comic-Con: are you impressed? How do you think these Thor 3 movie figures compare to the Hasbro Marvel Legends versions, and are you willing to shell out $80+ for either or both of them?

  1. Those are great but I don’t think Marvel Legends has anything to worry about, unless Mezco comes down on the price like crazy.
    Those are gonna be like 6x the price of Marvel Legends.

      • Exactly! Mezco is simply killing it with these releases, I can’t preorder them fast enough. There’a so much more value and bang for your buck with the Mezco figures than Hot Toys/Sideshow and they’re a fraction of the price. The fully loaded version of Punisher is not just the best Punisher figure I own, it’s arguably one of the greatest action figures I own in my entire collection across any lines. I am a completist Legends collector but I keep those in the package…Mezco figures are the figures to open and display! At this point, unless something goes terribly wrong, I can’t see myself not preordering just about any single Marvel figure they release lol. Keep killing it Mez!!!

  2. These look awesome! Has anyone else noticed that the Hulk and Thor have a DC symbol?

  3. Based on Mezco’s affinity for delaying figures we should see these two get a release sometime between now and the next flyby of Haley’s comet.
