    Thank you FTC and CTVT!

    I just want to take a moment to publicly thank FTC and CTVT.

    My Daughter LOVES the TV show, Lost In Space.
    She stays up every Saturday night to watch it on MeTV.
    Her favorite character is Dr. Smith.
    Being that the show is 50 years old, I had a hard time trying to find her any toys based on the show.
    I got so frustrated that I finally said, D*** it, I'll make one myself.
    Using parts that I found on the CTVT website I was able to do this.
    No, it's not perfect but it's close enough and I know that it'll make her happy.
    I can hardly wait till morning.
    So, again I say, Thank you.
    Thank you for helping me to make her wish come true.
    Merry Christmas.

            yeah, that works well for Smith. I was thinking LIS when I saw those sweaters, too.

              That's an awesome custom! Aside from all of the cool new figures coming out all of the time, it exiting to have this extensive online parts bin at our disposal. I make a new custom Mego for my son for Christmas every year and it would be really difficult without CTVT! Merry Christmas!

                Mego's were not only innovators in action figure toys, it's not mentioned much but they were The Mr Potato head of action figures too! FTC /CTVT carries on that fun at an affordable price.

                  She LOVED it!
                  As it turns out, my Son bought her an electronic (Lost in Space) Robot that is close enough in scale to the Dr. Smith figure and she's been playing with them for hours.
