If you guys read my review of Mezco’s Comic Book Hellboy, you know what a kickass vinyl figure he is. Mezco has just announced a variant, featuring Hellboy in a black BPRD shirt. Looks like this one also has a completely closed mouth instead of gritted teeth, and I’m starting to wonder if people will mix and match heads like they did when the first movie Hellboy figures with all the open and closed mouth variants came out. We just need a variant open Right Hand of Doom to make the experience complete!
The original Comic Book Hellboy was available at San Diego Comic-Con and is backordered at Mezco Direct, but I haven’t found a listing for this guy yet. Will update when I do.

You know what? I wanted to take some pictures of the Mezco Mez-Itz Comic Book Hellboy that’s exclusive to San Diego Comic-Con and their online store because I thought it would be a simple review. After all, it’s a vinyl figure, right? With vinyl, you plunk them down on a shelf, you dust them off once in a while, and that’s about it.
Not so with this guy. As you’ll see, there’s more to this figure than you might be expecting. I was certainly surprised.
Mezco has published details on its summer exclusives, available at San Diego Comic-Con and from its online store. I am particularly psyched for the Golden Army Soldier and the Mez-Itz Comic Book Hellboy, and put in my order online.

I never thought I’d be buying designer vinyl toys – that’s something that’s more to my wife’s liking than mine. But one day she bought me a Mighty Muggs Hulk. (Ok, maybe Muggs don’t qualify as “designer” since they’re targeted at the mass market, but they’re vinyl!) Since then, I’ve been picking ones up here and there.
One segment where we do overlap is Hellboy vinyl. She’s bought a few Hellboy Qees and I think these will fit in with those and my Muggs. I’m not sure what to do. Our collecting worlds are colliding.
