Mego - Me

[vman]

Ok, I finally did it...
I bit the bullet and I asked Ada Chan to whip up a Mego head of - Me :smile:

My birthday just passed and I figured that I would treat myself...

Well here it is...

Now my daughters want one of themselfs. This is going to get expensive...

[toys2cool]

dude that's awesome! looks just like you :grin:

[MegoScott]

Wow. That's really good!

[The Toyroom]

Ada does great work...looks just like you!

[z3zep]

Cool -- you should Mego-esque the entire family :smiley1:

[QDOGG]

Dude that is scary:terror: Wow the likness is awesome. Wish I had the extra scratch to get Ms Chan to do me a custom head. Her work is top notch:yeah:

[jessica]

That's so wonderful!

[jessica]

Are you going to clamshell or box your figure, Bill? Or have him loose?

[HardyGirl]

Wow! That's way cool! Awesome likeness!

[starsky]

she did a great job. where did you get the jacket?

[jayihdz]

Who is Ada Chan??

[vman]

Thanks everyone. I think she did a great job.

I'm probably going to display it in my glass case along with the other loose Megos (No clamshell).

As far as the rest of the clothes...

- AJ spy outfit turtleneck
- Black jacket from a black 007 suit that I picked up from Doc Mego
- Black Mego shoes (Bruce Wayne style)
- Mego Jeans (not sure who they are from, had them in a close pile)

It would be really cool to dress him in various Mego outfits. I always wanted to be Spidey, Batman or even part of the POTA cast. I guess this is my chance... :wink_y:

Who is Ada Chan??

Ada Chan is an increadable artist/sculpture. A museum member mentioned her in a post and then I saw some of her work on eBay. She sculpted many Celebrities and she will do any custom work that you want. She mostly does heads for 12" figures but you can ask her to do 8" also. My custom head cost me $180 but I think she raised the price to $200 now. Her email address is ada748623@yahoo.com.hk if you want to contact her. Her ebay ID is wantedyou and here is a link to her eBay store: eBay Store - Oil Painting: Self-Representing, MailBox (http://stores.ebay.com/Action-Figure-Head-Wantedyou)

[The Bat]

Wow...she really is good! It looks just like Ya...congrat's! And Happy Birthday!:smile:

[Dave Mc]

Dude, that's awesome!

[Brown Bear]

Really cool...that's something I've thought about doing for a long time as well.

Dude - That sculpt of you is totally friggin awesome. I must have one of myself. Thanks so much for the contact info. She does amazing work! Worth every penny. :cool_y:

She has some new heads...Tom Baker (Dr. Who) and Tom Welling (Smallville)...very cool!

[monkey tennis]

Outstanding...:terror:

[kingdom warrior]

How cool is that! You just gotta get a box or card to go with that.

[Neutron X]

Fantasticly cool!!!!!

[jessica]

I forgot to ask you Bill if you painted the head yourself.

[mitchedwards]

very nice.

[Alberto Malnati]

hey that's is really cool....beware to mego Voodoo:terror:

[vman]

Ada painted it. I figured, let's not mess with perfection.

[Meule]

Man, that is friggin awesome, looks just like you

[Megospidey]

I bet it is a bit strange staring at Mini-you.

Very cool to have though. And she did a superb job on it - the likeness is spot on!

[The Bat]

Yeah...I've seen the Welling...Man, I wish it were Mego size!!:down:

[zerohour]

That is really cool.
I have been talking to my wife about getting the family made into action figures lately as well. Thanks for posting the contact info, may have to do have that done one day for kicks (better get to saving).

[thunderbolt]

cool. That is a great likeness.

[The Toyroom]

Yeah...I've seen the Welling...Man, I wish it were Mego size!!:down:

Buy it and have it shrunk down...

[mego73]

Looks great! There's not enough plastic in the world to make a Mego out of me :)

[YANOULI]

Nice one Bill.

Ada's work is really good, i've got several of her heads to shrink down, and i'm trying to get her to do an older Sean Connery, ala " Diamonds are forever ". I think that head would be easier to adapt for Ramirez.


Yeah...I've seen the Welling...Man, I wish it were Mego size!!:down:

I'm ordering a few more heads from her at the weekend and was thinking of getting a Tom Welling. If you want an 8" casting let me know.

Ian, I'll take the Tom Welling if you shrink it down. Also, please let me know what others you already shrunk. I would probably be interested in those also. Ada is amazing!!

[Cosmicman]

Man...that looks cool. I couldn't even imagine how scary mine would look to people on here. You'd have to make a head from the undertaker wrestler doll and expand it mego size...

[wyatterb]

It looks great. I need to talk my wife into doing this for me for my birthday, or Christmas, or Fathers Day or something along those lines.

[polyester]

That's a great likeness.... Would love to see a closeup of the painted head... Nice b-day gift to yourself.

[vman]

Here is a pic that's a bit closer.

It's scary looking a myself like this...

[polyester]

thanks for the bigger photo. The fleshtones look really warm and almost waxy.... Your jacket looks like a peacoat(sp?) the way you are wearing it. I didn't recognize it as a doc mego...

[vman]

The waxy look is coming from the camera flash. If you see it in person, the face looks like it was molded, not painted. I'll try to take a pic without the flash.
