Mezco's One:12 Collective Rumble Society - Bartholomew Vex Action Figure

Mezco One 12 Bartholemew Vex Action Figure 008
A disturbance in the Necroverse can only mean one thing…Bartholomew Vex has arrived!

Known by many names, the shape-shifting deceiver Bartholomew Vex has made an art out of being a disruptive force. This deity-trickster enjoys nothing more than inserting himself into the affairs of Atticus Doom. Unlike the Necromagus Prime, Vex’s powers are derived from the natural laws of the universe from which he resides. Some believe this might be the root of Vex’s obsession with Atticus Doom and why he relishes in agitating him so much.

Teaser Trailer for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald Goes Live

The Harry Potterverse sagas continue within the Fantastic Beasts story line kicked off in the 2016 film. The Crimes of Grindelwald continues the tale of an awkward Newt Scaramander struggling to prove to the magical world that supernatural creatures should be studied, respected and, of course, loved.

At the end of the first film, the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) was captured by MACUSA (Magical Congress of the United States of America), with the help of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne). But, making good on his threat, Grindelwald escaped custody and has set about gathering followers, most unsuspecting of his true agenda: to raise pure-blood wizards up to rule over all non-magical beings.

In an effort to thwart Grindelwald’s plans, Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) enlists his former student Newt Scamander, who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided wizarding world.
