    How far did Logan run?

    I have often wondered how far mego got on the purposed LOGAN'S RUN line? i've read that cases of finished figured were burned, so what did the packageing look like, where there any ads madeup to promote the line? any ad spots made for tv? any plans for playsets? or the solarcar from the tv series? maybe the world my never know. here's a toast to what could have been

          Production samples were the farthest he ran on the TV side, the movie characters only got to the clay stage.

          I've never heard of play sets but I have heard that Durona created a sales reel presentation but have yet to locate it. The sole trade ad is this:



          The series got cancelled months before Toyfair so development obviously just stopped very abruptly when it did. I have an interview with a mego designer that I'll reveal next month which has a funny annecdote as to how the few remaining prototypes ever got out to collectors in the first place.

              You big tease Brian, This line of toys could have been so good...well better then Buck Rodgers anyway.
              Imagine having a Jenny Agutter action figure
              Great trade Ad.
              There are so many IF ONLY's with Mego.

                Yeah, it came close to Agutter, York and Jordan figures in 10" scale but then the series got greenlit and it turned to Harrison, Powell, Menzies and Moffet. Which I'm kind of glad about, I really like REM.

                      Well, I know where it is, convincing the owner for a picture, that's entirely different.
