Mego Wave 12 Revealed!

[monitor_ep]

I wonder what the webbed-hands version of Stan Lee means?

Something like this?

That has to be it since the do not have the rights to Marvel (yet).

On facebook, Doc Mego clarified a few things:

New sculpts on McCoy and Scotty. McCoy is in the short sleeve medical shirt.

I think the classic McCoy sculpt is great, but Scotty's sculpt never quite looked right. And I really want the short-sleeved medical tunic for McCoy. Add in the salt vampire and it makes for a really exciting wave for Trek fans.

great line up. but out of curiosity, if the apes deal was just signed a few days ago, how is it that we already have Zaius coming in March? I'm not complaining, i am just curious. i can't wait to add more apes to the line up

Wouldn't it be cool if Mego made a Stan Lee variant where he is the younger, 1970s Stan with the big moustache and the longer hair? That would rock!

Rocketeer! Man so excited to hear that one funny last year some people or someone here made a custom from the headless horseman coat. If more Disney is more possible I'd like to see TRON megos or Black Hole(the DST VINCENT should be to scale) or Dragonslayer.. and not Disney but Krull, Blade Runner, Clash of the Titans

Doc Mego mentioned that Apes were supposed to be part of the initial Target line up, but then the rights got sold to Disney and that reset all the licensing agreements. So they might have already had the production ready but weren't able to produce them.

that makes sense. if they had already approved samples then i guess all they would have to do is have them put into production.

The first set of POTA is reissues of the 70s figures, so the approval process is much faster on a retro product.

Since we're getting Igor from Young Frankenstein,I'm guessing he'll have a new body since he'll be hunched over? And maybe that means a Hunchback of Notre Dame down the line?

This is some pretty exciting news, nice to see McCoy and Scotty, curious on Scotty’s head sculpt? I think someone here said McCoy will be released in his short sleeve medical shirt? Happy to see Flash and GL, Igor, Son of Franky, Dr. Zaius, etc etc etc. it’s gonna be a fun summer.

Huzzah!

Med-tunic McCoy!!

I wonder what GL it will be?

Both Scotty and McCoy have new sculpts.

Very good selection of characters. I’ll get several. I think Rocketeer will do well.

[pmwasson]

Both Scotty and McCoy have new sculpts.

Did you sculpt them?

[TRDouble]

I knew about some of these, specifically the DC figures, which I had on pre-order, but The Rocketeer has caught me by surprise as much as Willy Wonka did. The Rocketeer? That's crazy!

Nice to see the new Trek figures. New sculpts are interesting since the original releases of the TOS figures were repros of the 70s and EMCE figures (can we call the EMCE reissues repros???). Does that open up opportunities down the road for new sculpts of Kirk, Spock and Uhura? Happy to finally be getting a Salt Vampire too. I never could get a decently priced after market EMCE version.
