Title: Mezco Judge Dredd - Cursed Earth..?
Post by: inkymonkey on 24 April, 2015, 12:49:04 AM
Anybody know what this is?  Is it just a blue variant of the upcoming Mezco Dredd - or something a bit more interesting..?

Weird isn't it! I saw that earlier and wondered what on earth they were getting at, as it tells you nothing really.

I can only hope it's the fucked-up, I've-been-through-hell-and-look-like-it version of Dredd from prog 85... complete with war robot still attached to his leg...

Well, I can dream, can't I John?

We can indeed. Now why didn't they include an actual photo of the bloody figure, so we'd at least be able to relax!

Not quite...a little dirtier with a few other cosmetic differences.

Cosmetic differences...?

Doesn't a legless war robot count as a cosmetic difference..?

Mmmm, this has caught my eye. A Cursed Earth Dredd would be lovelier than words could express.

If this is the Previews Exclusive then I'm pretty confident in my theory that the blue uniform will be paired with the Lawmaster.
Title: Re: Mezco Judge Dredd - Cursed Earth..?
Post by: Pete Wells on 26 April, 2015, 11:54:37 AM
Yeah, I'd like to know more about this. Do we have to order from Big Bad Toy Store or will we be able to get it elsewhere?

If it's a Previews exclusive then you can order it from Previews catalog or other places such as Amazon.com and Entertainment earth.

UPDATE. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=OOC10003&mode=retail looks like the PX exclusive has the traditional Lawgiver MK II with it. And has the blue uniform.

That's really nice, but it's not based on his appearance in the Cursed Earth story as advertised is it? It's what Dredd wears to go into the Cursed Earth nowadays.
Title: Re: Mezco Judge Dredd - Cursed Earth..?
Post by: Steve Green on 08 May, 2015, 12:08:40 PM
Well, it does say possibly.

I imagine it's so there's a tenuous link to the latest mega-collection.

Post by: BPP on 08 May, 2015, 05:19:26 PM
Are these fully posable things (like threeA) or statues (like Planet Replicas)?

Got to say that duster coat is fantastic looking. Much better than the first wave of these. Dirty and gritty and hides the (ugh) eagle.

It does look very nice, and great to see this stuff popping up, but kinda not what I was thinking/hoping it would be..

Can you explain? Is it the scale? The interpretation?

I thought it looked more like the (shudder) Stallone film Judge.  The one stood on the MC1 wall near the start of the film.

Who here won't buy the figure simply be ause they don't like the shoulder eagle?

Lair of the Octopus finally has the Cursed Earth variant which negates the whopping shipping fee of the BigBagToyStore.

You can get it here for £68 all in.

I guess we're all waiting to hear about the Lawmaster now... and who'll get there first, Mezco or 3A!

Post by: Pete Wells on 30 May, 2015, 06:56:58 AM
Mezco are pretty much there and it's gawjuss!



With ThreeA's frankly ridiculous business model, I'll eat my trousers if we ever see a Lawmaster from them...

I'm praying the Lawmaster comes by itself. I can't afford to spend $150 + like with that DKR batman vs mutant leader exclusive.

The thing is, now I've ordered the normal Dredd (well, two of 'em actually) and the lovely Cursed Earth version, I'm going to need at least two Lawmasters!  :lol:

I saw an interview with a Mezco guy who said the Lawmaster would have working lights and computer screen and such. I can't wait!!!

Well, then prepare to get 2 more dredd's, because I have a bad feeling the Lawmaster will be packed with a variant dredd figure. (Ow, my wallet)

Well, they have that one aswell but I cancelled it. Hesitating if I should go for it or not. The B&W is a must but I belive the disco dredd will be there for a while!
