    Classic Mego v Modern 8-Inch

    I wasn't sure where to post this, but I keep noticing something different with Classic Mego versus all the modern versions of 8-inch. The stances MOC/MIB for the originals are different versus the modern versions.

    The best example I can give is to compare Classic Spock v Modern Spock

    You'll see that wider stance in all the original Mego's, but today's product...and it doesn't matter from who...they're narrow. I'm wondering what this is about.

          Yep. Once de-bubbled they spread out just like the origginals
