What's your dream line?

[censy]

What line of never produced figures, would you like to see from EMCE, CTVT or Castaway?

As a mego and an anime fan, I would go crazy for Star Blazers/Yamato figures done in the classic mego way.

Dream Line..? WISH some retro company would do a "Land of the Giants" line.. Most likely a 3-4" to match the supposed height on the original series. Oh well..

David B.

[Sandlantern]

I'd love to see EMCE get the rights to make Marvel/Dc superheroes...BUT, I want the "classic" look..:grin:

no nuMarvel for me! :no:

[megomaniac]

Lost In Space with the classic season 3 costumes and of course, a decent acurate robot. Add a Jupiter 2 fold out playset to go with it and I'll be the happiest camper ever.

[Type3Toys]

Kolchak The Night Stalker. Dave, can you see this? Doc? Anyone? I promise to buy every figure from the line if that helps?!!! Hello?

[Brown Bear]

My Dream line was always "World's Greatest Boxers" with Mego guys of Foreman, Dempsey, Marciano, Holmes, Duren, Hearns, Leonard, etc etc etc.......

[jds1911a1]

I second Yamato That was one of the greatest shows ever. The toys for it have always been a little cheesy*( With the excetpion of the 3/34 figs from the 70's in japan and the bridge which I have WOW!) Doc could use the CK head in andorian blue for Desslok , the Astronought head would be a good start for Wildstar

[SUP-Ronin]

I would like the entire Superfriends line (from the cartoon) with a hall of Justice playset and also with the Legion of Doom villains including a Hall of Doom playset as a foldout carrying case. Done in clasic mego style. Mostly to fill in the gaps - Black Vulcan, Flash, GL, Apache Chief, and Samurai etc, and especially the villians they never did. Grod, freeze, Luthor, Manta, Sinestro and so on.

[kingdom warrior]

Hanna/Barbera World of Super Adventure......a Whole line of HB's Superheroes. Space Ghost,The Herculoids,Birdman and the Galaxy trio, Mightor, Samson and Goliath,The Impossibles,Frankenstein jr, Shazzan...etc

Oh! Good one. I would really enjoy these as well.

[mikeoz]

Obviously, the WGSH line. But I'd also like to see 8" versions of Mego's Flash Gordon line. I dig the '30s retro look. The costumes are really detailed and the accessories are pretty cool, too.

[Brown Bear]

Another cool line would be World's Greatest Action Stars with Chuck Norris, Bronson, Eastwood, Stallone and Arnold as their most famous characters.

[ScottA]

Lost in Space and Star Wars
Hogans Heroes and Gilligans Island
Additions to Knights, Pirates and Robin Hood
Three Muskateers

[Brown Bear]

60's Batman line would be a dream come true as well if done by EMCE.

[teddyk]

I have so many favorites, both classic shows and more recent ones, but my dream line would have to be Babylon 5. I know figures (both large and small) were done back in the 90s, but they were pretty bad. Mego versions of the B5 characters would be so awesome! And there's such a great, colorful roster of characters to make.
A very close runner up would be the crew from the first Alien movie. I'd like all seven of them in their work uniforms with cool accessories like trackers, flamethrowers, Jones the cat, etc. (I figure this one will never happen since other companies already have the license.)
And finally, I'd love figures of one of my greatest "guilty pleasures," Andromeda. I think the characters, uniforms, and accessories would look great in Mego style.

Censy - I have Yuki(Nova) and the Yamato bridge I will dig them out this weekend and send you the pics

[mars396]

Great !
Wish Lists !
My favourite topic !


Here’s mine:
Star Trek – woo hoo !
Planet of the Apes – check !
Space:1999 – well, sorta…

Batman
the 1966-69 TV show with Adam West
I have made some customs, but EMCE getting that license and putting out actual, “real” figures from that series would be a dream come true for me.

Gerry Anderson’s U.F.O.
greatly underappreciated, and horribly forgotten by everyone, this show with its silver bodysuits, Nehru jackets, and human-looking aliens in spacesuits was made for Mego-ization

Logan’s Run
I really want 8” scaled repros of those prototypes – I WILL have them someday…..

the Visitors
a series I thought of- Doc’s Alien heads molded in assorted colors with matching colored bodies and different colored bodysuits. I found a guy online who makes Silver Surfer bodysuits, and the shiny material is perfect for these.
(I couldn’t name this series “Aliens” because that means something to us action-figure and SciFi geeks)


The Astronauts
another one of my no-license-required concepts, this time providing us with an assortment of NASA accurate and science fiction inspired spacesuits. Just imagine having a Mego-scaled Lunar Module and two Apollo astronauts. My God, that would bring tears to my eyes…..

Six Million Dollar Man
But until that remake is filming, can’t see any real appeal for DST to try to sell them.

Bond, James Bond

Zorro, Lone Ranger and Tonto

[SUP-Ronin]

Another cool line would be World's Greatest Action Stars with Chuck Norris, Bronson, Eastwood, Stallone and Arnold as their most famous characters.


Ummm... you forgot the most important one ever!!!!

Mr Bruce Lee. Hello???

But I do like your other nominees except Arnold.

[SUP-Ronin]

Going off the Action Stars idea, how about a Magnificant Seven line up???

[toys2cool]

Just Spaceballs for me :grin:

[SoulSinger]

The return of WGSH on Kresge cards.

Bob

[Mikey]

1. Lost In Space

2. The Beatles

3. Land of the Giants

4. Classic Doctor Who (full 8" line)

5. Smokey and the Bandit

[Werewolf]

Universal Monsters done in the Mad Monsters style with glow hands and eyes. I can picture them looking sort of like the Remco 9 inch Universal Monsters shrunk down.

[spotter]

1. Dr Who 9" shrink downs of cyberman and Dr (even though I have the 9" ones)
2. Flash Gordon 9" Shrink downs
3. Green Hornet & Kato

[HardyGirl]

Electra Woman & Dyna Girl w/ Frank Heflin and Electra Base, Electra Car and villains The Sorcerer, Glitter Rock, The Empress of Evil, The Pharaoh, & The Spider Lady. Now that would ROCK! :costumed-smiley-081

[mego73]

The Jack Webb Trifecta

Emergency!
Adam 12
Dragnet

Not that I don't appreciate the LJN figures and thier own cheesy charm, but seeing only small catalog pics of E! figures I imagined more Mego quality ones with better outfits. I always thought Emergency and Adam 12 would've made great Mego lines(and given us plentiful police and fireman accessories). Dragnet would be cool on an adult collector's level as I would love a Mego Jack Webb.

[starsky]

i'd love to see

classic battlestar galactica
gatchaman aka battle of the planets - mark, jason, princess, tiny, and keyop

[Seeker]

A very close runner up would be the crew from the first Alien movie. I'd like all seven of them in their work uniforms with cool accessories like trackers, flamethrowers, Jones the cat, etc. (I figure this one will never happen since other companies already have the license.)


Too Late... Check out Tomarts #165 (This month) pg 38

Sideshow collectibles has a 12" Dallas and Kane with the most fantastic space suits I've seen in a while. 20 points of articulation, PVC space suit, Helmet with clear and moveable shield. Kane has a damaged varient from when he was face hugged and a varient face hugged head. Gloved hands, search light, portable crane, pistol

There are even light up functions inside the helmet. Sweeeeettttt

[The Bat]

Well....after Star Trek & POTA:grin::

I'd have to say James Bond! Starting with the Sean Connery Movies, then on to Moore, etc...

And: The Beatles...& The Monkees!

[Hulk]

More Legends and Warriors - Vikings - Ninjas - Samurai - Spartans - Gladiators - etc

Pro Sports - MLB - NFL etc

Dinah Mite - New hair colors, outfits, ethnicities, etc

Presidents of the USA - Collect 'em all! Grover Cleveland and Dwight D Eisenhower in a Cage Match - Oval Office Playset with Map Room

[DocDrako]

Hanna/Barbera World of Super Adventure......a Whole line of HB's Superheroes. Space Ghost,The Herculoids,Birdman and the Galaxy trio, Mightor, Samson and Goliath,The Impossibles,Frankenstein jr, Shazzan...etc

YouTube - Hanna-Barbera's World of Super Adventure (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUVcSNmxIx8)

Me Too! I'd also like to see...

- Thundarr The Barbarian (Thundarr, Ookla, Princess Ariel, Miscellaneous villains)
- Classic Jonny Quest (Jonny w/Bandit, Dr Quest, Race Bannon, Hadji, Dr Zin, Jade, miscellaneous villains)
- Classic Battlestar Galactica (Starbuck, Apollo, Adama, Boomer, Baltar, Cylon Centurion, Cassiopeia, Athena, Boxey, Serina, Colonel Tigh, Jolly, Ovion, Imperious Leader...I could go on. Sure it's been done in smaller scale, but never in Mego Style.)
- Tron (Tron, Yori, Sark, Flynn in Digital Attire, Computer Warrior)

I'll just stop there.

:grin:

[toys2cool]

How about an Elvis line :grin:

[David Lee]

Hmmm...

Star Wars is my number one of all time dream line. Dave McCormick's customs are proof of just how cool this line could be in MEGO glory...

Thundar the Barbarian
Johnny Quest
Lone Ranger and Tonto
Flash Gordon
Prince Valiant

STAR WARS..D'UH! How could I forget that!:wall: Star Wars should be #1!!!!!!!!!!!

[DocDrako]

I was going to put Star Wars on my list but I doubt I'll ever see it happen so I left it off. I would LOVE Star Wars figures in the Mego style. DaveMC's customs are so awesome! I love his Stormtrooper the most. I still haven't been able to recreate one for myself, but maybe someday. Actually I'd like to make about 10 of them but I don't think that'll happen. In the off chance that Star Wars ever gets Mego-like figures, I'll be buying an army of Stormtroopers.

:grin:

2. Flash Gordon
3. Logan's Run

5. Classic BSG be great to have a Cylon Centurian
6. Historical figures like Hulk said,Vikings,Spartans,Romans,Ninja's and Samurai :cool_y:
7. Battle of the Planets (Gatchaman)

There are so many choices of lines what could be made,possibilities are endless :grin:

[monkey tennis]

Yeah I used to watch The Water Margin but I Loved Monkey Magic.
I used to sing the Theme tune in my school playground.

I think the theme tune was my favorite part of the show.
I think each episopde was about 1 hour long, and after a while I'd get
bored...I can't remember The Water Margin's theme tune.

Do you remember a book called Banger's and Mash ???
I just remembered it this morning.
Again it's about cheeky Monkey's

[raider5gt]

No sorry don't remember that book.

Monkey was good though,even the 1st episode when Monkey went to toilet on Budda's fingers by mistake :terror: :smiley1:

"AHH PIGSY YOU EAT TOO MUCH" :smiley1:

[david_b]

Quark anyone..? The Bettys would be a gas..!

[kingdom warrior]

Adventures of Superman with George Reeves Superman and Clark Kent,Lois, Jimmy,Perry White,Inspector Henderson. Proffesor Pepperwinkle and his robot...Various Thugs including Mr.Zero.

Playsets would include: Clarks office and Perry whites office. The storeroom with window and real spring board action for launching Superman out the window.

Alternate Superman's: Black and white Superman and Frozen white Superman from the big freeze.

and just for fun I love Lucy Superman

[kingdom warrior]

How about an Elvis line :grin: Don't forget Jumpsuit Elvis with capes and Karate action. :grin:

[monkey tennis]

Don't forget Jumpsuit Elvis with capes and Karate action. :grin:

That would be great.
It wouldn't take much to resculpt a Fonz head...just one or two bad jumps
on his motorbike...or getting chewed by that chasing shark :biggrin:

[Timothy2251]

Most of the ones I'd love to see were already mentioned:

Star Wars
Dr. Who
Star Trek (Next Generation, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise, etc.)
Pulp and Comic Strip Heroes (Mandrake, Prince Valiant, Doc savage, the Shadow, etc. - get Cast-A-Way on this NOW ;D)

How about an extension of WGSH covering Image and Dark Horse characters, among others? Who wouldn't want an 8" Savage Dragon or Witchblade, huh? AND MORE VILLAINS!!!!!!

Howsabout a Buffy/Angel line? More monsters in the form of Jason Vorhees, Freddy Kruger, Michael Myers, Leatherface, etc.? OOHHH - a Hellraiser line! Yeah, 8" Cenobites!

[Bionic Joe]

[The Bat]

Definately Logans Run "The Movie"!!:yes:

[LadyZod]

I would like to see Seasame Street.

Using the Rascals bodies, clothes are no problem, sculpted hands and heads for bert, ernie, cookie monster, oscar, etc. Big Bird and Snuffie may require new tooling, maybe a plush/mego hybrid. You can have regular humans in the regular 8 inch mego body, and the muppets would still be in proper scale.

I think it could work.

[Captain]

My dream line?...Thats easy...Pauls already doing it--CLASSIC STAR TREK. We're only one year into it and look at the goodness that has come. I cant wait to see whats in store for the 09' line up!
Except for the possibility of a couple of leftovers from the original line, the 09' line will be all new!!! ......

Other than Trek....Rocket Robin Hood----This cartoon had Mego written all over it!
