Mezco’s line of One:12 Collective action figures have been really hot the last few years. The detail and accessories really make One:12 Collective figures stand out on your shelf.
Mezco Toyz has mostly focused on movie superheroes and comic book characters with the line. But, they are definitely opening up the licensing possibilities with the addition of all four Ghostbusters from the classic 1984 film.
This assortment also stands out because Mezco will offer all 4 of the Ghostbusters in one Deluxe Tin Packaging that will cost you $300. Including all the guys in one set does take away the stress of having to hunt them all down individually, but you won’t be able to just grab your favorite Buster if you wanted to go that route. $300 isn’t cheap and it feels like we have gotten hundreds of Ghostbusters figures the last few years. With all that being said, there aren’t many companies producing better action figures right now then Mezco. It will be hard for collectors to ignore Mezco’s Ghostbusters figures, no matter how many other Ghostbusters collectibles they have in their collection.
You can pre-order the figures now at Entertainment Earth.
