    Time to kick things off, brief descriptions below.







    Both figures use vintage Mego bodies. Abin Sur feautures a Retro Action head, hands and suit with paints and cuffs by me. Boots are cut down CTVT. Hal is a recast of a shrunken and modified Hasbro 9" head with my paints, and suit is a hybrid of Hasbro and CTVT. Boots and gloves courtesy of Doc Mego. Box by theToyroom.








    The dueling Ghost Riders are vintage Mego bodies adorned with CTVT parts and a few touches by me. Box by theToyroom.



    Animal Man is on a vintage Mego body. Head is an old Notdolls cast with my paints, Matchbox boots, Cast-A-Way suit, and CTVT jacket. Packaging coming soon.

    OK gang, time to get to work on those customs. I have already spoken to to many of the usual suspects and in the coming weeks we'll be seeing things from palitoy, Dr. Leitner, ScottA, etc. If you haven't touched base with me and intend to make a donation, please send me a PM and let me know what's up. I'd like to have everything in-hand by the end of the first week of June. As always, proceeds go to keep the museum lights on. This thread will serve as a master list. Submissions will also be posted at thebigtoyauction.com for those who won't be attending Mego Meet and wish to bid online.

      Those are some seriously awesome figures! I look forward to seeing what else the community comes up with.

      Have you guys ever thought of doing a raffle? Might be another fun option for those who are looking for a way to help the cause.

                              I'm cooking up something different this year, a Fist Fighting Super Collector Vs Azrak two pack with card art (and character design) from our own Chris Franklin! Here's a taste (cause I'm not done)
