Mezco One:12 Dick Tracy vs. Flattop

[Earth 2 Chris]

Wow, this is a gorgeous set, and one of the best attempts I've seen in translating the Chester Gould art into 3D figures. I can't help but feel the Dick Sprang-inspired Batman vs. Two-Face set helped Mezco unlock this look.

Not into Tracy enough to drop $195, but still, gorgeous.

Wow, that’s really nice!
I’m not a huge Dick Tracy fan, but this particular pairing has sentimental appeal to me. My first exposure to the characters was the DC LIMITED COLLECTOR’S EDITION tabloid that reprinted the Tracy/Flattop newspaper serial in color from the mid-70s. This will pair nicely with the Batman/Two-Face set I own.

That treasury was my only exposure to Dick Tracy as a kid other than when he popped up in Mad.

Sadly, my first REAL exposure to Dick Tracy was reairings of those VERY questionable 60s cartoons on Chicago's Bozo Show, on WGN. Even then I could tell what was really from the strip, and what was added by the animation company.

Gad, how I wish these were Megos. Wonderful.

I read Dick Tracy in my local paper, an early story I recall was with Haf and Haf, which tied nicely with my childhood obsession with Two-Face. When the movie was released, I bought several reprint volumes.

Interestingly, the Penguin is possibly inspired by a Tracy villain, Broadway Bates.

I would like to see mego make Dick Tracy and some of his colorful enemies, I think they would sell well.

I thought about customizing one as CTVT has everything for his outfit....the head though threw me off. The only one I can think of is Shazam from the Shazam series. But that would require me to buy a whole figure just for customizing...

I made a Dick Tracy using using the Shazam head. With the hat on it looks perfect.

Ahead of his time.

Oh, you can buy just the Shazam head. That's what I did after I saw someone here create a great and easy custom.
