    Interesting.
    Many Mego fans, Doc included, disdain Mxy. But with a fat body tooled for Penguin, who knows?

    I thought the Super-Foes were discussed on YT and Luthor was advocated instead.

      Understood, and Mxyz was/is a definite dud, but I’d assumed they planned to re-release all the original DC WGSH.

        I hope for that, too. There's room for plenty of Bronze-Age DC figures beside the originals.

        I really like Mxy, though not so much his body type. I even accessorized my vintage one with lavender Ledy boots.

          I wonder if they would release Myxyzptlk on a child body? Is that something people would want?

            Oh wow, that Flash is perfect! I was worried we might get a smiling head sculpt, or worse, a smirk , but nope, Mego came through for the win!

                  The Flash looks great.
                  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...

                      Are the emblems going to be stickers?

                        Looks like I'm busting out the wallet for all those Megos...well...most of them.

                          I really like the face sculpt but the picture looks like both the face and the mask are painted. Is this just for the "mock up"? I would have thought that either the mask/head was molded in red plastic and then the face/skin painted on ... or (less likely) the head molded in skin tone and the red mask painted on. Again, in this picture it looks like the mask and face are painted on. Is this indicative of the final product? I'm thinking not, but ...

                            Awesome! The set is pretty much complete (except for Isis)

                              The 24 figure box has:

                              3 Superman
                              3 Batman
                              3 Captain Marvel
                              2 Robin
                              2 Green Lantern
                              1 Green Arrow
                              1 Wonder Woman
                              1 Supergirl
                              1 Batgirl
                              1 Flash
                              1 Reverse-Flash
                              1 Aquaman
                              1 Joker
                              1 Riddler
                              1 Penguin
                              1 Catwoman

                              I guess that's based on the assumed demand but it makes me wonder, with the surprise appearance of Reverse-Flash (which may explain why Flash has a painted red and painted face mask, to minimize the costs of a Prof. Zoom they are both molded in, say, gray plastic), I wonder if there is another surprise in that box: could one of the two Green Lanterns be John Stewart?

                                Doubtful; both GL boxes have the same item number (51309).
