Was hoping we would hear some news of Mego Corp's plans for new 8 inch POTA at Mego Meet. Any discussion about that at the meet ? POTA is my most anticipated line from Mego Corp. if they can make it happen.

There is a video on the Mego Corp Facebook page from the meet. The talks were going well until the Disney/Fox merger. So I think things are kind of up in the air. Going to rewatch it when I get home and hear things better. -
Mego must have been close to a deal, because somebody on Mego Ambassador said they wanted to see POTA...and Doc replied "count on it!"

Just watched the video, Marty said something along the lines of they were very close to finalizing it. My hope is for everything to be on the new 20poa bandless bodies, and to go DEEP into the catalog (retro releases of everything from before including the TV show heroes, and expanding further with more characters like Taylor, Julius, etc, etc, etc)Comment

It sounded like they had to pretty well start from scratch after the Mouse took over, but it also sounded like they were still very serious about getting the rights back. Marty also answered a question about whether they would be doing the old versions or more screen accurate figures, and he said, "Both." They pointed out that this, of course, would depend on licensor approval; the final word would belong to Mickey.Comment

That would be a nice feather in the cap for new Mego to get the license for POTA, hopefully it gets done, and like with Trek
we get to see some of the old characters return along with new ones that weren't around the first time.Comment
