    what happened to Customslab?

    I've been away from MEGO customizing for a while so maybe I missed something but what happened to the Customslab site?

      He had some problems with his website renewal as well as taking a break.

      I talked to him this week, and he said he is going to try to be re-opened mid to late June.

          I got an email from him saying that his shop is re-opening on 15th June.

            Same here.

              I've noticed Russ tends to run a bit behind on his estimations. I'd say count on it by the end of June, though.
              Of all the souls I have encountered his was the most...human.

                That's why I posted mid to late June (do not count out July )

                Whenever it is, he is definitely re-opening.

                  Yup! I got that email too...and it made My Day! Russ does such quality work...His stuff looks Machined! I still didn't get all the Heads I wanted to from Russ...now I'm glad, I'll get the chance!
                  And Maybe We can get Him to cast some new ones! Like maybe this one?

                      I am pumped about the email.I have had a few items on order since November so this is awesome.I totally agree that batman head would be perfect.I would actually do a batman custom with that head.I also agree that the quality of these heads are out of this world!!!
                      The quality of his products are unbelievable.If you don't own any then get some you will not be disappointed.

                        So true!! Russ's work is so PERFECT...that it looks Machined!! When You buy a Head from Russ...You don't have to do anything, but paint it! The extra work He puts into building up a Head is INCREDIBLE...making sure the Neck is the right height, adding a Mego Neck Plug...and when he's done....You can't even tell He did anything...because it just looks so perfect...it could have come from a Factory!

                              Nice, bought plenty of stuff from him and even sent him a few heads to add to his list
