Good read. Found it interesting who Marty name dropped after Jimi Hendrix. Reminded me when he mentioned Andre the Giant. If this was already posted and I completely missed it, please delete it.

Billy Idol? Exciting!

Think it shows how wide a net their using. I don’t remember many putting his name on their wishlist. But it’s cool how they may throw something out of left field. It also may bite them in the rear. Keeps the interest up in seeing what will be next.

thanks for posting this, I like the idea of a Mego Billy Idol even though I'd never ask for one. The customs opportunities are interesting with that one.

I'm a HUGE Billy Idol fan.

The thought just never occurred to me that he was a possibility. But now that that avenue is open for me, I'll be dancing with myself!

Bowie still tops my list. I hope he happens, since they've done a few of him as Jareth, I am wishful that the legal hurdles are surmountable.

If Mego did Labyrinth it would be great. I think that would be a line that could be successful, if they can get the likenesses right.

Bowie did the intro to the British cartoon 'the Snowman.' He was great, and so was the cartoon. Highly recommended.

I liked reading company names like WALMART, AMAZON, KHOL’S, SHOP CO actually listed. IMO, including TARGET, they will likely be the marketing/ retail company names for which to watch out.
In Canada, my best guess will be keeping an eye on walmart.ca and Amazon.ca .

All they need is Amazon and the madness ends. I'm no big fan of Bezos, but Mego would be well served by a Target/AMZ combo.

Unless Target really wants to challenge AMZ and up their online game. I wouldn't fault Doc and Marty for staying exclusive to Target, but they need to have more control over product line and a free hand in communicating distribution.
