I got my Vex like a week ago. They do take a bit even for in stock orders.
Well that worries me. 😕Â
I still haven't gotten mine. Par for the course unfortunately.Â
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... 😳Â
Not to scare you, but I've had things take a MONTH to ship from them when it was an "in stock" item.
I also ordered Vex, and a friend in WVA got the one he ordered last week, yet I haven't gotten any notification either.
Â
Ordered immediately.
Silence since.
Not unexpected.
Mezco has one thing going for it, everything else a garbage fire started by meth head raccoons.
I received my Vex last week, but it's very much a crap shoot. I also JUST received my Gotham by Gaslight Batman today, that they charged me for over a month ago. Similarly agonizing wait with Solomon Kane.Â
Picked up the one:12 Cable (exclusive version) during the BBTS sale. Really like it, but sort of frustrated that the batteries dont work/head doesn’t light up. Thinking maybe I’ll buy new batteries, and if that doesn’t work ask the retailer to send me a new one or a partial refund or something. The whole reason I splurged for this figure instead of waiting for the Legends figure was that I thought the light up eye looked cool.Â
This is my third official one:12 figure, fifth actual (ordered a Daredevil and Punisher that I didn’t realize were unofficial versions). I also own Ascending and Supreme Batman.
I got a shipping notice today!
I know it's late. I've had the worst time trying to get it done & uploaded. Give me a sympathy "Like"? 😰Â
EDIT: Nevermind...I'm a moron!
My fav thing about Mezco is the grift they have going where they take an NRD upfront, wait 2+ years to ship, then unilaterally cancel your order without warning or notification, keep the NRD, and ignore your emails. Totally not a fraudulent practice.
Bonus if they sell you an accessory pack for that figure in the same order and deliver on that, such that you pay $50 with shipping for accessories for a figure you don't own.
I have the original Vex and thought about getting the variant because I love the spooky red vulture head. Much to my surprise, the preorders are sold out.

Looking forward to this one. Their horror figures continue to be some of their best ones.
I'm hoping for another Dick Tracy villain reveal. Really want a Blank before they're done with the line!
It looks like The Shadow is shipping soon, or at least billing soon,  My waitlist order converted.  I’m happy to get the preorder in without giving Mezco money a couple of years in advance.
