    messin around with the Z body

    I love the vintage type mego body and mego's in general but the old style always felt flimsy. now that ive found the Z body ive been moving my favorite heads over to them. i have 12 and probably could use 10 more.


    the z body feels nice and tight and sturdy. and will hold just about any pose the mego type can save a few. all AJ's outfits fit perfect on it as does the LJN swat and rookies. LJN heads look fantastic on the z as well. here are some pics i took of my aj's and ljn's and just some customs im tinkerin with.




    this is my favorite AJ

    i had a close up pic of the jim street head on there but photo bucket skipped it for some reason, as for skin coloring the LJN figures and the CTVT pirate head match the best.

        They look great. The Z Body definitely earns high marks all around. I put an extra Retro Action Green Arrow on one and the difference is amazing. I'd heard of the emblems on the Retro suits cracking but haven't seen a picture of one until now. Did it crack pretty easily?

          It did on mine, but not too or so much that it bothered me. The belt stretched a bit too. Overall, I prefer my Superman on the Z-body.

              Wow, AJ looks so ripped and the pose ability makes them look sharp.
              Can't wait for different colors, if it will happen.
