    But what do we call them?

    After reading the big breaking news last night I got to thinking; "Considering that FTC is going further than simply releasing reproductions, what should we call them?"

    "Mego's" as we lovingly refer to them is a blanket term for all the lines (duh, Jim) but it seems to me that referring to these new figures as even Re-Mego's doesn't seem right. Maybe it's the marketing guy in me but IMO it seems like a great time to come up with a new word to refer to them.

    "FTC's"? No pop

    "Figures"? Little too generic. Okay, a lot too generic.

    Hmmmmm....

      I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea we're getting a Mego Hawkman.

      For now, I'll just call them AWESOME!

                        I pretty much call all clothed articulated 8" action figures Megos.
