    Update from Joel @MegoCorp

    Ambassadors – We hope that all of you are well and healthy during these unprecedented times. As the world is changing so drastically around us, we pray for anyone negatively affected by world events.

    These last few months have been quite extra-ordinary at Mego. Besides Marty’s beard (he hasn’t shaven since the beginning of the pandemic), the halt in production from the pandemic has been very frustrating, to say the least, but we are seeing things open up and expect shipments of Wave 8 to leave the orient this month. We love the way this wave has come out and are excited to get them into your hands. I think you’ll really love them!

    With trying times, sometimes, we find opportunity and though the last few months had been quiet on the production side, it’s been quite the opposite on all other fronts. We’ve been very busy and have some really great, new and exciting things scheduled for the rest of the year (no, not next year, this year), from new properties, to new products, to new distribution in the U.S. and Worldwide.

    I would like to personally thank each and every one of you for your support and your patience during these trying times. But you should know, that we have not been sitting on our hands. We’ve been working very hard to make Mego bigger and better.

    By the way, tune in to the Mego Museum towards the end of the week for one of many great new things to come.

    God bless you!

    Joel

    Also want to mention that if the Friday announcement is what I suspect it is, it'll be a crowd-pleaser.

        The real question is...when do we get to see the beard?!

        Though I am looking forward to the announcement later in the week.

                I don't know much about that although there is a new Canadian distributor and I think that will up their presence here.

                  If so, I hope they make a talking Dietrich that says, "Go away, Beverly is busy." in a Gregory Peck voice

                      It's gonna take a long time for Mego to live down Tootie, we didn't get a single sitcom character last year and we're not getting any this year but everyone, self-included, loves to make light of it.

                            I guessing it will be 8 inch DC figures.
                            You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
