I think Keaton Batman was significantly longer than 3 years even, I wanna say 5 maybe?

... I suppose they are afraid of generating waves of bad hype on social media with each dispatch. 

I would be surprised if this was the case. Mezco toys, the action figures, have a pretty good reputation. Mezco Toys, the company, has a pretty abysmal reputation. I don't see how they could make it any -worse- by just having a little blog page on their website where they post things like 'hey gang, Batman has been delayed and should ship out August '24. Sorry but you're gonna love it when it's done!'  Don't see how that's a worse look than radio silence and a running joke on every toy group that Mezco pre-orders can be inherited by your grandchildren.

I noticed that Sodcutter/bag head version is on the 'waiting list' on the site and bbts never bothered to sell it but they did sell the first 2 versions, just my luck.

@nightwolf it says Mezco Exclusive on the listing.  Nobody else was going to sell it.

There is a different version up for pre order at BBTS if you want one bad enough.

I've wanted this damn guy since they first teased it. The promo video is pretty sharp too.

Glad I was able to use from rewards points on Vex. Haven’t been able to use those on anything I’ve ordered directly from Mez for a while now.

I saved $20 on him by using some points myself, so the shipping was basically free.

Really like the look of Vex. Just a cool looking demon dude! Still....I just cant with Mezco anymore. Getting screwed on Solomon Kane still sticks in my craw.

Now, if they later do a Previews exclusive variant that is sold through shops like BBTS, I'm down. I just don't want to deal with ordering direct from Mez any more.

Anyone know if Dr Doom is dropping 4th quarter or 1st quarter?

@flexion-dynamo I don't know 100%, but they charged me for him weeks ago now.  I won't put anything past Mezco, but if it takes them more than another month to fulfill, I would be more disappointed than usual.

Little over 3 years looks like.

Jan 15th 2020 preorders went live, in hand reviews started popping up April of this year.

@fuzzybluedemon I ordered through BBTS. This is my Only Mezco order so I wasn't sure how long long is...

So, I only currently have one One:12 figure (Harbour Hellboy), and I got it off Amazon, so I've never dealt with Mezco directly.

I know Robo constantly says in the Weekly how long their preorders take, but I got an order in for the IN STOCK Bartholomew Vex, and my order even says "In Stock Shipping Now," but I haven't received a shipping notice in 2.5 weeks, let alone the figure itself.

How long does it take them to send out in stock stuff?

I ordered the Figura Obscura Jacob Marley that Saturday (Vex went up on Monday), and he showed up by the following Friday.

Not trying to be impatient or entitled, just trying to temper expectations, because my autistic brain apparently processes "shipping now" quite differently than the reality of the situation... 😳
