Cannot wait to see the Black Lighting figure!!

I'm anxious, too. Very enjoyable newsletter, thx.

Love those Astro Apes.

SUPER excited for Black Lightning! FTC has made some childhood dream DC figures come true for me, especially The Flash and Hawkman, but Black Lightning was right at the top of that list. Black Lightning and Falcon adventures would have been incredible for 8 year old me. Even if they are not mass market items in Walmart and Target, I am so happy to see Black Lightning products being made, from my DC Fandome T-Shirts and even the Funko POP! that I couldn't snag, but am still happy to see get made. But to get a Mego-style Black Lightning... *cue up the Kool-Aid Man smile*

Slight delay due to being smote by the authentication gods, but I was rescued by a kind Canadian. https://mailchi.mp/2f0375c5fa66/mons...s?e=ce704b24aa

saw the devil outfit available on CTVT but no head yet. So are these monsters the ones that were to tie into the 3 Stooges? If so it is going to be fun to see them.

The customs continue to captivate. The Ledy-style Green Lantern is sooo charming!

I sooo hope you're right, because it reeks of glomming on and for a company with the DC/HB/WB license, that would be pathetic.

That's their original Devil suit, surely partially disintigrating due to their warehouse.

I welcome all sorts of monsters, but really it comes down to design and fabrication--and I wonder why they don't do H-B versions, avoiding that makes it seem glomming.

That said, how much more could we expect from Mego Corp.? A vampiress, a hunchback/Igor? Some crypto-creatures would likely do well.

[sprytel]

I suspect they are going to be a new batch of the "Mad Monster" figures they previously released. That looks to be the same devil suit, at least...

Angry Ape!!!!!

Looking forward to seeing if this is a POTA knockoff since they have all the parts already.

^I immediately thought of a reworked Mugato head, but you make a good point.

[thunderbolt]

I was thinking reworked Grodd or Solivar

I have to admit, I had a twitch of "because Mego is having success with the unlicensed monsters."

So they are announcing these (w/o pics?) a mere few weeks from the Halloween season?… interesting, I was thinking we'd have to wait until Halloween 2021 to see them!
