All I need now is a cape. I just used my existing Mego Superman outfit since it looked vintage and a bit faded. I made the chest logo at work yesterday with a yellow crayon, red marker and scotch tape. I'm Macguiver'd it. I had my doubts when I started this, but I think it's turning out pretty decent. Anyone got a G Reeves box like maybe Toyroom? That would complete this nicely.

Scott,
I have a color version as well (have to check for pics later) but here's the black and white version box:

Ok being a hardcore Reeves fan and since you're still working on it....your S is wrong and keeps it from being perfect so here's some symbols for you to use. :grin:

Didn't the Reeves "S" change/evolve over the run of the series?

The black and white episodes had the rounder shaped S
The colour episodes had the square S

The picture above on the top right is wrong.
It's a B&W photo that was hand coloured in later years

I have a box that is made to resemble the Mego box in 2 versions:
