I looked back on Mego Buzz and it was April 21, 2014 "Diamond announces 8" Marvel figures!" I was so excited I imagined a Spider-Man 8" wave starting things off with original Mego 8" Spider-Man, Peter Parker, Green Goblin, and Lizard! $25 each like FTC! Imagine the letdown when I saw the $80 Mego 8" Spidey w/ 2 more costumes/heads a Captain Action like SET! There were QC issues even on Captain America set which looked better. I passed on Wolverine. Now the next set Thor is not due until Nov/Dec 2015 and only 1 new set is to be shown at SDCC for 2016 obviously! Not frequent enough to compete with FLOOD of FTC Mego DC in 2015!
I was even thrilled with SDCC 2014 Sideshow announcement of its 1/6 Marvel figures but only Deadpool has been solicited since then for $230! OUCH! I heard on sideshowcollectors.com today that the line is going nowhere and Sideshow will forget it after SDCC 2015! At $200+ each I can see why!
I even supported Round 2 Captain Action Marvel costume sets and those are dead!
I hope DST EMCE Marvel sets are cancelled and Disney will re-evaluate license with FTC and even 1/6 scale since Sideshow did nothing with it. Even 1/4 Marvel scale like FTC 1/4 DC!
I just hate to see the Mego Marvel Universe going to waste. Now that Marvel has Secret Wars going and an All-New All Different Marvel Universe coming this Fall now is the time to strike!
