    Mego Invites You On A Journey That Begins Where Everything Ends

    In 1979, Walt Disney sent out a press kit for their upcoming block buster film "The Black Hole" included in this was a specially made Mego Toys Catalog for the event. Full of items that were never produced, we are happy to show case it for the first time.

    Check out the 1980 Mego Black Hole Catalog.
    One week until Mego Meet, hope to see you there.

    I'm surprised Mego didn't at least plan a Cygnus TOY, similar to the Canadian Enterprise.

    Actually Mike, they did, this was the first design for the Cygnus. By the time the 1980 Mego catalog came out, the design was exactly like the Canadian Enterprise/Pocket Batcave/Buck Rogers Space Port.

    I ment the Canadian Enterprise toy that depicts the entire ship -- like the Southbend and Playmates Enterprises.
    Actually, a little retooling of the Cygnus model kit would have made it easy.

    Oh I see, it might have been because MPC already had a kit in the works they decided not to.

    That's nice to see all what could have been. That playset is cool, but I prefer the one that was later designed. I really wish that was made.

    BTW, the link to the page showing the 12" dolls doesn't work. You might want to take the ".jpg" off the end of the url, then it will work fine.
