Last weekend was the 2010 Toy Fair and Mezco Toyz debuted their new Kick-Ass action figure, based off of the comic book series and upcoming movie that shares the same name. Check it out:
The figure is based on the likeness of Kick-Ass actor, Aaron Johnson, and looks downright awesome! A Hit-Girl figure has also been rumored, but no price or release date for either toy has been mentioned yet. The final sculpt of this kick ass Kick-Ass figure is still pending licensed approval, but I can’t think of any reason why it wouldn’t get made. It almost looks like a live-action photo!
Kick-Ass is a comic book published by the Marvel imprint company, Icon, and is created by both Mark Millar (writer) and John Romita Jr. (artist). The movie is set to premiere April 16th 2010 and you can watch the new (not work safe) trailer below:
And here’s another one:
And finally this great scene from the film that was shown at the 2009 San Diego Comic Con starring Hit-Girl (Chloe Moretz) and Big Daddy (Nicholas Cage):
Fuck yeah! Click here to watch another trailer that’s all about Hit-Girl! If you missed out on Kick-Ass in single issue format (there have only been 8 since 2007, but good luck finding the first 6 without having to shell out some serious cash), the hardcover edition was released this past Wednesday, and for a mere $24.95 you can own the entire run of the series so far.
After all that only two words come to mind: Kick. Ass.

Cool statue and good job Andy.
There’s just something disturbing about seeing Nicholas Cage shoot a little girl in the chest.
@Billy Ah! The action figure looks so good it’s being confused for a statue!!
@Eli It’s disturbingly awesome!!
