    Oh, and get Burke another shoe!

            It's not out yet, it's an early sample and one I'm excited to showcase.

                Headsculpt looks really good here. I was initially leery of the new head style, but the results so far have been good, with none of the "schlorp-face" sagging on one side or the other we've seen in some of the hollow heads. And the finish is just as matte. I'm also glad to hear that Mego is looking to address some of the new body's quirks; a few minor tweaks to fix the scale problems with a few parts should give us something that works well. And Mego really needs to start considering things like a head pack for certain properties. This is a prime example where that would work, or even make some deluxe figures with multiple heads. The head switching is remarkably easy with the new figures; it begs to be exploited.

                    This exactly! Making this something of a low key official feature would point out the inherent customizing potential of Mego and provide another selling point. Some kids look at the figures with only mild interest. Bring out the parts box, though, and you can see the "Lego" or building toy part of their brain light up!

                            That's probably my biggest takeaway, it seems to be more effective in looking like the prototype than ever before.
