From LaserMego (http://www.lasermego.com/latest-news/fantasticar):

Please stop by the Laser Mego table to see the all new Fantasticar!

http://www.lasermego.com/latest-news/fantasticar/fcbox2.jpg

This is a new, built from scratch, custom vehicle for the 8" Mego Fantastic Four figures. It is made of tough ABS plastic (like Legos) and is not only a display piece, but can hold up to light play. It has four separate units that snap together to form the car.

The box was beautifully designed by the Mego Museum's The Toyroom, based on the iconic cover to Fantastic Four issue #3.

Available for the first time ever at Mego Meet 2011. It fits in perfect with the other WGSH vehicles.

We will have a very limited number of cars available at Mego Meet.

*** UPDATE ***

Pictures available at LaserMego (http://www.lasermego.com/latest-news/fantasticarpictures)!

beautifully ambitious!

What other stuff are your bringing along for sale at MegoMeet this year? Any Micronaut stuff? What's the status of the Micropolis additions?

Here it comes ... the Fantasticar!

It has plenty of room for the Thing in the back:

When searching for danger, the group can split up:

And then come back together:

Ready for the next encounter:

It snaps together tight:

And then use its "break-apart action"!

That box is flat out awesome! The Fantasticar is also very neat. I think I would have been all over something like that as a kid. Nice work on this one.

That is so cool! I always thought the Fantasticar was kinda cheesy... but seeing it realized in Mego form... whaddayaknow, it works. Definitely a toy that begs to be played with. Nice job.

Price Tag Please:yes:

The Fantasticar is $80 and will be available after Mego Meet. Please PM me if you want to get on the waiting list.

The ones at the meet will have an introductory price of $70. Please stop by and check it out, as you really have to hold it and make "whooooosh" noises to appreciate it. :grin:

Thanks everybody! It was a great meet, and we sold out of cars before lunch. We should have brought more. If anybody missed out at the meet, or if anyone else want one, I'll honor the $70 price for another week (plus actual shipping cost). PM me with a paypal address and I'll send you an invoice.

I'll post a bunch of pictures and more information at Laser Mego (http://www.lasermego.com) when I get home.

I'm not into the F4...but I appreciate the awesome job you did...and it's very Megoesque...it fits the figures perfectly...and I love that it brakes down into four separate pieces...it truly is a working playset...it's FANTASTIC...and the box is just icing on the cake...
