Not entirely...Jay is the Businessman(but I do have a few ideas....a Friend of Mine has a online Toy Store). Me...I'm His Advisor to the Mego World, and Prototype creator. I can tell You the first figure is isn't far off...and the 2nd is now being worked on. If sales go well....there will be MANY more to follow!:yes:


I can also tell You....that this is a Mego Museum Community group effort. You will see names You all know, like a very well respected Sculptor.:wink:

Wow, things just get better and better here. The ECME treks are starting to hit, Captain Action isn't far behind and now this. Tis a good time to be an 8" collector. Looking forward to seeing more about this.

Cool! I can't wait to see these! It has a very cool "pulp" appeal to it... But who are we kidding if it's MEGO... ME-Likes :)

Thanks for posting , Dana!
Thanks to everbody for the great comments!
Dana has done an amazing job creating prototypes and advising
the creation of this figure.
Special Thanks goes to Doc Mego, Paul Clarke, the manufacturer of the figure,
for all his help, wisdom and advice.
It's really a thrill to be working in this Mego format.
More details soon!

Jay GETS what superheroes are supposed to be about - fun four-color stories that kids and adults can enjoy.

As I have said before - I am always happy to work on a project that will bring new fans
to the megoverse. We need to get megos in the hands of a new generation that will
make it their own hobby.

Type 1 bodies used lead rivets - that was why Mego stopped making them.

I have searched high and low for that size rivet to fix type 1s, but I have
not been able to find them.
