Hey everyone I'm new here. I basically found this by looking for old Godzilla and Ultraman KOs. Since then I've been scrolling through topic after topic. I'm not a huge collector although I do buy figures every once in a while (mostly vintage stuff I find at charity shops or online) My favourite toys are the Storage Shell Turtles and of course a newer piece, the Lobster Johnson figure by Mezco from the first line of Hellboy toys based on Mike Mignolas art. I also like KO Godzillas and the little plastic Chinasaurs.

I can see why you would like the Mike Mignolas style Hellboy figures. Mezco did a great job capturing that style. I only have the Hellboy2 movie figures . I am so happy with the ones I own that I keep hoping Mezco will someday make more like them.

I also like KO Godzillas and the little plastic Chinasaurs. That Lobster Johnson is great. Those Mike Mignola styled Mezco pieces are all really nice looking actually. I haven't opened any of mine, but the quality looks good and using Mignola's art-style as figure sculpts worked absolutely perfectly. Edit: I just noticed justrygt said pretty much the exact same thing earlier. Oops! Oh, and welcome to the site, lobsterjohnson :)

All Mezco Hellboys are very nicely made, although I only own threefrom the comic series (Hellboy Lobster Johnson and Abe Sapien) , I've seen some of the film variations in a friends collection and they are all beautifully detailed toys.

If I'll ever get any of the other ones beside Abe Lobster and Hellboy I'll only afford loose ones. That giant ape is calling out at me
