    Any Info on these New Mego Company Employees?

    My apologies if this topic was already brought up, but I was curious to know any background info
    on the individuals named on the bottom of the back of the new mego cards?

    (Sculptors) Sean Samson, Cynthia Woodie and Andy Covalt

    (Seamstress) Nicole Wilson

    Doc Mego is mentioned as the consultant, but we all pretty much know his background
    but I'm wondering if anyone here has info on those Mego employees mentioned?

    I just think they should be given some sort of shout out for their contributions for
    New Mego.

    were they involved with Mego Corp back in the day?

      Sean's last name is Sansom, it's been misspelled. He's a good friend of mine, he is a SFX artist who worked on IT! Shazam and Suicide Squad, for which he won an Oscar. He also sculpted Brick Mantooth.

              Yup Andrew has done a lot of the 14" Heroes, mainly the best looking ones.

                  Hi, thank you!

                  For anyone that is interested, I did all of the 14" make heads, except for Lex and Zod of course, and Batgirl.
                  8" I did Norm, Cliff, Woody, Chachi, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, and Mirror Sulu. I think that's all of them.
                  Expectation is the death of discovery.

                      For the DC 14” what were your inspirations?
                      I think I see a particular bronze era artist.. but might be projecting.

                          agree, agree


                          who were the folks that worked Mego back in the 70's ?

                          that was a great group, indeed.

                          I'm in a groove and on the move collecting Mego POTA figures. PM me anytime.

                            I love Mirror Sulu, the 3 Cheers men, and all of the 14" sculpts. Great work Andrew! Applause for all the new Mego men and women who bring us joy everytime we look at our collections in our homes.
                            I post in thy general direction!

                              Thanks! I usually look at Neal Adams, José Luis García-López, and Alex Ross. I looked at Curt Swan for Superman, but
                              Paul thought he looked to old so I had to de-age him.
                              It depends on the character, but I aim for an iconic silver age look.
