Mentioned that to an Mego oldtimer. Made me scratch my head too. And the outfits for both Supes and Wonder Woman are just...well, baggy. Reminds me of the junk that Figures was doing a while back where the outfits were baggy and just ugly. The Superman has silkscreened abs. That's just plain old lazy and cheap all in one. Wonder Woman looks like she has a poop load in her bottom dress area. At the very least sinch it up so that it fits the figure snug. I hope those are prototypes and not finished production figures.

I'm thinking Superman and WW will look better in person or at least hope. Those two and Geordi are the ones I want most.Comment

Thanks for pics LonnieFisher.
Geordi looks the best out of the new bunch. (Not interested in the Next Generation stuffs though.)
I, too, was hoping for something different aside from the candlesticks from Van Helsing. (I most likely still get it. I'm a sucker for Hammer Dracula stuffs.) (Mite get Spock and Kirk too.)
I am hoping for Vincent Price, Boris Karloff and Peter Lori from the Raven.Comment

I'm seeing a trend here....don't like it. The big head syndrome is still alive in some of these figures. I have it with the Kang Klingon figure, and the recent Mego Superman. What I don't understand is how Dr. McCoy and Scotty heads are the correct scale...but yet Kang's head is a tad too big (makes the shoulders look narrow...when head is too big). Another issue I have is those costumes that are Silkscreened...Superman emblem abs, and red shorts on the previous release...I find them to be useless for posing...too restrictive (non stretchy material type costumes...Unlike what Mego used on their Superhero figures in the 70's). Disappointed !!!Comment

I don't understand the dislike for the Cavill suit--he has a horrible costume in the films and this depicts it in doll form pretty well.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

As a customizer...I restring all my Megos to have Full ROM. I need it for dioramas. However, I purchased 3 current Superman figures and threw everything away except for the bodies and capes. Costume was too tight and non-stretchy (S emblem was too small)...head was too big and boots to wonky (soft rubber) made it hard to stand or pose. I Luv Mego...been with them from the inception in the early 70's...Just hope these quality issues could be addressed.
Couldn't do various poses with this recent Superman costume....
