Prototype of Mego Old B.O.B
This hand made prototype of Old B.O.B is another sample from the Mego model department from the colelction of Tory Mucaro.
Like the prototype Twiki, B.O.B is comprised of urethane resin castings pulled from RTV rubber molds and then hand painted and assembled.
B.O.B was most likely sculpted by toy industry legend Bill Lemon who also had a hand in many classic Aurora Monster models.
As Tory Mucaro pointed out, it was unlikely that these castings were done on the Mego property, more likely at a company called HMS in Pennsylvania.
Many thanks to Tory Mucaro for these amazing pictures and information.
