    New Mego Impressed Me With.......

    This is a no negative zone... For this one thread...try to find one thing you really like about Mego 2.0 even above Mego 1.0

    The AJ figure. It looks so much better than the OG AJ ever did. The face is more serious, the outfit looks better fitting, the boots are better, the insignia is better. I was never a fan of the old dog tag so I don't miss that.

    I like the new neck plugs sometimes you tried to remove a head and the neck would tear

      I just like finally getting a Chekov and a Sulu. I came in just a little too late to get the EMCE versions.

        Bela Lugosi Dracula was the best of the bunch I think. Very well executed and looks great still in the package. I want to get a second so I can make him part of my Halloween display this year!

            A 14” Batman figure for $20! That’s like 1990’s pricing.

            Losing TRU was a massive blow to the psyche, but seeing an endcap with the Mego logo on top had HEALING POWERS!

              Their logo appearing big and bold on an endcap display. Comeback of the century.

                Dracula, just a perfect figure, no head, body or clothing issues. For half the price of FTC too.

                  Heartily agreed on that one. I don't collect monster stuff, and I'm really only a Trek guy when it comes to Mego. But that Dracula really impressed me. I picked up two of them for other people, but in looking at one of them sitting on my shelf I can see it's gonna be hard to let go!

                      I agree. I like most of the new Megos, but that Dracula is next-level stuff, especially at half the price of FTC. Usually, these are doctored up to look better online, but the real thing actually looks better than the online photos.

                        Dracula turned out very well.
                        You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                            He's promised to somebody else...so if I want to open one, I'll have to go out and find yet another, this time for myself!

                              I don't see the need to badmouth other releases honestly. Yes a company scaled up for a larger release to more locations in mass markets can sell figures at a lower price. This is not news. We can also say for half the price of Emce or for a third of the price of a Flattworld Dracula. That's kind of the nature of economics.
