Mumm-Ra and Mumm-Ra in “The Odd Couple”
 |
Mezco revealed its SDCC 2012 exclusive, and among the Mez-Itz and a metallic paint Earthworm Jim figure is a gem. It’s a classic ThunderCats Mumm-Ra double pack, containing a massive, 14-inch Mumm-Ra the Ever-Living figure complete with glow-in-the-dark skin, but also a brand-new sculpt of his other form, Mumm-Ra the Tiny and Decrepit, and man does he look awesome. The pair will set you back $50, which is pretty reasonable for an SDCC exclusive containing two figures, one of which is over a foot tall. You can check out Mezco’s other SDCC exclusives here, but really, Mumm-Ra’s the only one you’re going to need.
