The MezcoToyz Buying Experience -

With the drop of One:12 Collective Hazard Squad Commander Gomez exclusive figure as part of the MezcoCon Fall Edition Bodega Box, I thought it might be fun to document my buying experience and have you guys join me through the many initial downs before a giant leap into the ups!
Note that is only my experience, your experience may vary

Seeing how hard it is to preorder them makes me glad I don't collect them anymore. I got a few before but I just don't care for the soft goods aspect like I used to. Especially when thinking about how long will the fabric material hold up over time. I mostly collect Mcfarlane, Mafex and S.H. Monsterarts now these days.

I feel ya, it can be super stressful and very valid concerns on your part

[@noksuan59]

It's like the unnecessary fake loading screen or artificial engine noise in an electric vehicle, I feel like the failed payment, has become a part of the experience, that it makes you wonder why it hasn't been fixed yet unless it's intentional by design.

😂“I’m gonna be in and out in 5mins.”😭 I know your pain. I went thru the same issue and they failed me too.

[@ThePerfectGogeta]

Hopefully it’ll be better next time, bro!

[@619kane]

companies doe this on purpose so that it makes the items more sought after.Then "they" the actual owners scalp them on ebay and other secondary sites.Neca does this also so does Hot toys.Not hating on them its just business.

[@fabster360]

Planned scarcity is definitely a factor just like planned obsolescence in the tech industry, just the nature of the game!

[@theeccentricgeek7202]

I went through everything you did in your video when I ordered this. Even the "please just take my money, here it is take it" part. HAHA! So freaking stressful! I have all of the Gomez releases except the shadow assassin so I really wanted this release and it finally went through after like ten attempts. I enjoy your channel and it's nice to see other Mezco addicts out there.

[@fabster360]

Thank you, I'm glad I wasn't the only one!

[@luckypapi87]

This was me for when they dropped Chris Reeves Superman lol

Great toys, but the ordering process can be impossible at times to do. 50 minutes trying to order Doc Noc, everything went wrong, left with only a wishlist status. Only recently got switched to full order status, hope I get the figure. Really need to update and simplify the ordering system, much so on exclusives.

[@fabster360]

You have to really want it and stay persistent, I only order the exclusives directly and I always dread the process

[@imhatepie]

>that room Good lord you are the ultimate mezco paypig.

[@fabster360]

Lmao I respect your use of that term, have a thumbs up

[@iamjaysaul1169]

cdn collector ? im new to mezco collecting so this process is new for me lol.. although my nemo and superman preorder was painless.

[@bigbapa9385]

Geez buying toys is not supposed to be that stressful.

[@fabster360]

Especially not first thing in the morning lmao
