    What 12" Mego would you want most?!

    If you could take ANY 8" mego and blow him up to a 12" mego body, who would it be? Any line at all.

    I'd love to have a Klingon and Kirk. Aquaman and Joker come to find as well. A soldier ape and Fonz. So many choices. What would yours be?

    Green Goblin with a Goblin Glider printed on the back of the box that you cut out and fold together.

      Tough choice, but I think Green Arrow would be cool, he was one of the best 8" figures and the 12" figures that Mego did make always seemed to improve on the 8" versions a bit.

        You know what I would like, and we've discussed this before here because the fact it wasn't made is inexplicable, a Mego magnetic Spider-Man...just like their magnetic Batman and Robin figures. It seems like Spidey would have been the obvious choice, but who knows why it wasn't made and the first choice for such a figure. Anyhow, I think that would have been pretty darn neat! That's not really blowing up an 8" figure, of course, but it would still be a 12" figure along the same line.

          Iron Man would have been cool along with the Lizard and Fantastic Four or at least a 12" Thing.

            Mr. Fantastic since he was advertised on the packaging.
            A Supergirl to mix in with Sups, Lex, Jor-El, and Zod would have been nice. Mego would have most likely recycled the WW body and red boots rather than blown up the 8" figure though.

              A 12" Iron Man would've been keen!

              And why do people type "Sups" instead of "Supes"?

                The Green Goblin idea iis inspired, I know that as a kid I wanted one and the Energized Remco version was a poor substitute.

                I would have loved a 12" Aquaman, but nobody else would have bought it.

                  Mr Fantastic haunted me as a boy, still does. I also wants me an Aquaman but he's gotta be perfect. I still haven't figured out what that looks like.

                    I want a Joker. There was a time when I agreed about Magnetic Spider-man, but I could make one in about half an hour and I have never bothered.

                    Runners-up would be Thor and Iron Man to hang with Hulk and Spidey.

                      Thing would be interesting only because i'm not sure Mego would go with a full suit at 12"

                        I agree with you, but I won't lie about considering a blond Parkdale Superman head, Capt. Action outfit, and Mag Robin cuffs.

                          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                            He's the only one missing from the "Super Friends 5"....

                            I would have begged my parents like CRAZY for one... but, then again, I begged my parents like crazy for an 8-inch Aquaman (and Wonder Woman) but never got one (or the other either!).

                            Aquaman would've been my top pick, easy.

                              This, so this! I didn't find out that there never really was a 12" Mr. Fantastic until I was in my 20's (after years of searching for one) and when that happened I was crushed.
