View Full Version : New EMCE/DR. Mego Female bodies!
Cosmicman
Jun 22, '08, 2:17 PM
Well I was going to keep the lid on it but since Dr. Mego (Paul) already revealed this at the megomeet I guess the cat is out of the bag. (No pun intended.)
This is the body going to be used for Uhura and the prototype to the new Dr. Mego female bodies.
I am so excited! No more Breyer girls! Ha Ha
They are made from the same stuff the Dr. Mego bodies are and I am pretty sure they are tough and stronger then the normal bodies.
Now we have to wait for Aug/Sept until we can actually get our grubby hands on them. :smiley1:
This doll does have a neck stem. I cropped the prototype Uhura head because I am sure the Doc wants to reveal that on his site himself! :)
I am sure with enough questions Dr. Mego himself with come to this thread and answer. He gave me all the answers I needed. I didn't need to twist his arm. :)
I know my daughter has a stack of made over BreyerGirl/Super heroines that are going to need a makeover in August!!

Good move by the Doc...the Breyer Girls hips are too wide and the CTVT Girls are junk.

This picture was already revealed at the Megomeet so I figured there was no harm letting some of you see it.
I did not attend the megomeet but I do chat with Paul from time to time :)

Yes this figure had a neck. I cropped the head because it had a prototype Uhuru head that I am sure Dr. Mego doesn't want out and about until the doll is actually released.

Yes! Anyone making female customs put your females on hold until Aug/Sept. These bodies are going to be want we have been asking for for many, many, many years.
My daughter's Breyergirl/Super Heroines are so in desperate need of a body makeover. They all look silly because they are 1/2 inch taller then the male super hero counter parts. This is truly a blessing!
So hold onto your female customs!!!!
Wait....it will be worth it!! I am so excited typing this! Ha Ha :drool_y:

Does this mean that finally we'll have an end to all the:
"Well, the Breyers are OKAY" comments?
I agree---- the Breyers tower over Megos and don't fit in well at all.
I gave up on 'em YEARS ago.
I'm with y'all who are saluting the arrival of the new EMCE female bodies.

It wasn't that bad...and You should read Bill Shatner's take on what when wrong with Movie. The Studio TOTALLY messed with Him...He didn't get to make the Movie He wanted to. They were supose to go looking for God...but find the Devil instead.:firedevil:

I have an original Uhura head. I plan to get two regular Uhuras when they come out.
One to take out of the package, one to keep safe.
I plan on getting a red Star Trek style dress from Brian Leitner.
I have black tights that will fit nicely, and all I have to get are the boots.
Along with the repro tricorder, phaser, and communicator.
Doable, all doable.

This is great news! I've been holding off on female heroes and villains for a couple of months now because I was debating about getting the Breyers.
JediJaida
Jun 23, '08, 5:25 PM
Breyers!? Ick!
Never mind the bodies, the heads are atrocious! Those spooky looking eyes, and vacuous Barbie smiles are just not a good combination.
The heads are also too small, and they look deformed, compared to classic Mego and DocMego's recast of the Supergirl head.
Action Martin

This brings up female heads. I've seen resin heads with resin hair but are there female heads available with "real" hair?
JediJaida
Jun 23, '08, 5:39 PM
As far as I know, DocMego is the ONLY one that sells Mego scale female heads with actual rooted hair.
Unfortunately, she is only available as a Caucasian blonde with blue eyes, so if you are looking for an Asian, Hispanic or otherwise ethnic head, you are either SOL, or you will have to scalp one, repaint it, and reroot the head yourself.

Sorry man. I will eat my crow. I was only doing the whole, get you Breyer Girl dolls as a promotion to help Dr. Mego. Now that he is going to be getting new female bodies I can finally give up the Breyer girls are OK comments. :grin:
I feel if I don't help the Doc out promoting his site eventually some day people will lose interest. I want to keep this stuff going. You know how it is?

I'll tell ya what...between the fact that I think DOC MEGO is like a savior
when it comes to my toy collection PLUS I am quite taken (and humbled)
by the documentation of your collection that you so thoughtfully share
with your daughter--I'd give you an easy pass on all the above ---not
that it matters what I "give a pass on" anyway (if something works for
you--- it works for you)!
Plus---I went through a pretty involved "BREYER PHASE" before
swearing off them for good---so in some ways I'm JUST as guilty
of "falling for the Breyer lure"!
Bottom line: We're lucky that's all now far behind us...
so CHEERS to the new bodies!

How many nine year old girls ask their daddy to make them an Earth Two Wonder Woman? It was funny. I had to snag a cheap beat up Wonder Woman off eBay and add gray hairs to the doll's head. I am still laughing about it.

The ongoing exploits of Custom Mego collector "Wrathdemon Jr.
and Dad" are interesting---I'm a huge fan of DC customs and will
have to come to terms that my JSA/EARTH 2 clan will never reach
the scope of yours/hers. :no:
I caught the latest E2 WONDER WOMAN quest---and of course,
as usual, I look forward to pics. :yeah:
I don't comment in every custom thread---but these days I'm pretty much
catching all the threads---specially the DC and MARVEL ones! :drool_y:

I have no problem with religous People(although it's not for Me)....but I hate Fanatics of any kind. A Fanatic is Someone who straps a Bomb to Himself...and takes out 30 People.

I know what I'd like to see. Some rooted female heads with pointed ears, for those of us who like Elves, Vulcans, Romulans, etc.
It's a bit of a pain to sculpt the derned things ourselves.
Oooh! That reminds me! Paul never did say if he was going to have the Romulan Commander done, or Saavik for that matter.
I think it'd be great to have those two in the Trek line, even if Saavik is from later in the series.

For some reason, THIS thread was a the top of the list that day, and I looked at the pic. I have never seen one of Doc's female bodies up close, and I thought we were talking about something new.
I have seen that tiny pic of the caucasian body a thousand times. I always thought that it was more like the Mego body.
When I saw Wraithdemon's post (from '08) I was thinking the Doc brought out a new body. Word has it that he is working on a new male body so...:juggleyes_y: :smiley1:
