    Magnetic Spider-man no brainer

    Four score and seven years ago I called Dr. Mego and made arrangements to send him a set of Magnetic Batman hands and feet for molding in red. Seriously, it's been that long - the resin had actually started to fade. I finally came across an otherwise nice suit with holes in the feet, and with the help of a donor body from Rachel B and some red vinyl paint I finally got this guy together. Sorry for the blurry pics - the action shot is him clinging to my fridge. Still wondering why Mego didn't do this back in the day.









    Group shot - my skinny version is MIA

      Seriously awesome, and yeah, not making him was probably the dumbest thing Mego ever did.

            For years, I have heard Lee & Ditko meant for Spider-Man's costume to be red & BLACK. The pics above make me truly understand why. Very cool.

                    So true... And they did for Batman & Robin which made them look abnormal IMO and didn't make sense for the characters...

                            I've wanted to make one of those myself for years (like, since my one brother got magnetic Batman for Christmas and the other got a 12" Spidey)-- well done!
