    Yes, as folks stated a great idea but as Scott stated the logistics involved would require a major financial undertaking and a logical solution would be making it crowdsource funded.

    I, too, agree a great idea and would love to collect these.

      I don't know if we'll ever pull this off, but I do know that concerns about being outwitted by scalpers would not deter us.

        Ok, since we've debated distribution, what would you like to see in an official figure? Obviously it would have to be a figure from a license Mego has the rights to. Or a generic release.

        Something with mass appeal would really help too. If I were the designer, my first instinct would be Tracksuit Bruce Lee. It would be minimal cost for a new costume and Meet exclusive card. The tooling is already done. Easy peasy.

          Surely Tracksuit Bruce Lee will be released as a widespread release, assuming the rights are available.

            I think a more realistic expectation, if anything comes from this, would be a glow in the dark Bruce Lee. No suits to sew up or tool, just spray on some glow stuff or maybe cast in GiD plastic.
            I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

            If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

              I'm just spitballing. You're probably right. But I'm just thinking of logical variants using what's already available.

                  How about the current Gorn sculpt in the colors and costume of the vintage Mego Gorn? That would be fun.

                    Working on a pitch for the "jimbutsu and CodeBoy" two-pack. It's... not going well.

                      I thought I was the only person on the planet who wanted a "Ghost of Bruce Lee" Action figure!

                        Or Lt. Leslie for Trek. No new tooling or costuming need be developed. Different color hair and a card with his name on it is all that would be needed.

                            Most logical, indeed.
