    In our discussion on 8" Mego scale(and them getting it wrong) David wanted to see my Custom THING(brought up to 8" scale). So...here he is(with my Custom Johnny for size comparison). Head by Doc Mego, Reproheads Suit & Leg extensions.

    Thanks much. I had this pic saved for custom ideas a few months back, but didn't know this was your creation..

    Hope you don't mind my asking, but Johnny's head is excellent. Which head was used and how was it done..?

        My guess is...a modified Shazam head. What did I win?

        Nice work. In the photo, it looks like the Thing is reacting to Johnny goosing him.

            Not at all. It's a re-sculpted Shazam Head, that I based on the Paul Nearly/Alan Davis run on FF.

            Doc Mego sells a cast of it on his Site and calls it:

            Blonde youth head
            $3.00
            Seen frequently on Robot Chicken - because I begged them to find something to do with this ugly head

              I really need to do something with Thing. I was chatting with a guy who created a new Thing mold for 8" mego dolls but he vanished and I lost his name. I really hate Megos's Thing a lot, same with Hulk but I found a cure for that...ask Ivanaski.
              More custom Mego madness on Facebook right here...

                          I didn't know he changed the blond youth heads, his blond youth head used to be a blond mask less Robin head.
