History

Mezco Toyz was created by Michael Markowitz (Mez), the President of Mezco, who maintains himself as the driving force behind all aspects of design and development.[2] Working with the best talents in the toy industry, Markowitz conceives and directs each line from start to finish.[citation needed]

Mezco Toyz was established in 2000 from the ashes of the short-lived toy production company Aztech Toyz, which obtained recognition for its stylized line of Silent Screamers action figures based on classic black and white silent pictures from the beginning of cinema. The Silent Screamers line was renewed as one of the original releases from Mezco.[3]

In 2022, Mezco announced the Wednesday Living Dead doll. This was released shortly after the Netflix series started streaming. This Wednesday doll also includes Thing.[4] Along with many other pop culture toys, Mezco announced in August 2023 the released of their Wednesday figure. The figurine is in a dancing pose and modeled after Jenna Ortega's portrayal of Wednesday Addams in the Netflix series, Wednesday.[5][6][4][7]

The new Superman is in a Recovery Suit Edition which is outfitted in all-black and a part of The One:12 collection.[9] In June, Mezco Toyz One:12, announced the release of new action figures, Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes, Destro, Roadblock, and Firefly.[10][11]

June 28, 2023, Mezco released an Indiana Jones figuring complete with a gun, multiple whips, troch with blow darts, a spiderweb, a bag of sand, a gun, and a pedestal with the fertility idol from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Indiana also comes with four interchangeable heads, five sets of hands, and a base to stand on.[12][13] In August 2023 Mezco Toyz received the licensing to do a Raiders of the Lost Ark figure. The figure was of Major Toht, the German Nazi spy.[14] The figurine is portrayed by actor, Ronald Lacey in his movie outfit. The black trench coat, striped suit, fedora, and black from glasses. The figurine also comes with multiple face changes, including the iconic face from the end of the movie where his face is melting. Also included are nine interchangeable hands, a pistol, the Staff of Ra’s headpiece, and four pairs of glasses, as well as a light up Ark of the Covenant and an unholy ghost. The figurine is on pre-order and will be shipped in August 2024.[14][15]

In October 2023, Mezco released a new G.I. Joe action figure with the field commander Duke. This action figure is part of the One:12 Collective by Mezco.[16] The action figure has a grenade launcher, machine gun, hand gun, six hand grenades, a knife, and multiple weapon FX. It also features three interchangeable faces and thirteen interchangeable hands.[17]

In November 2023, Mezco announced The Golden Age Joker will be part of the One: 12 Collective. The Golden Age Joker has three interchangeable heads, three interchangeable hairs, and ten interchangeable hands.[18] The figure will be released in August 2024.[18]
