Another observation is the neck is kinda funky.

Looks nice. They will be replacing the Mego Grim Reaper body.

I like the skeletons, too. CTVT might do well to add sword & sorcery-style or Greco-Roman weapons to accessorize them.

I think Mego Corp. has erred in the colors of the Flash and Green Lantern boxes. IMO Flash would be better in yellow and Green Lantern in light green, to "pop" the characters and, in the latter case, differentiate from Green Arrow. Or perhaps at least the liners could be those colors. Is the the DC style guide interfering?

liking the ctvt skeletons and hoping they are a bit less fragile than those of the past. More skeletons and monsters are always good in my book.

I don't get the color selections for the new heroes either. All the other vintage boxes have a contrasting color like Batman, Spider-Man, or Aquaman or a minor uniform color like Superman, GA or Captain America. Red for Flash seems too easy or obvious.

Me too and I'm not big on the sport itself, but that's really sweet.

Great newsletter. Love the Dick Tracy figures, though they’re not my scale. I have that Ape bank. My brother and I have had one each since our childhood. On display with my Kong and Godzilla figures. As always, lots of custom greatness.

Yeah, that six-inch scale leaves me cold, I don't know why the figures look great but I can't do it.
