    Web handed Aquaman

    Got the pics ready,..but dont know how to post them here,..any help?,..As for the MFA rights,...Mego as always,..rejected the offer and Kenner got the rights to the show, making Play-doh', Dip-dot, and other toys based on the show as advertised in the 1978 Kenner dealer catalog (Logo for the MFA is cool,..the same style logo as used for the SMDM, Bionic Woman, Fembot, Maskaton, Bionic Bigfoot, Oscar Goldman,..etc... ) Can have this scanned from mine if interested in seeing it....
    ...but Mego did get to make the hands and heads for overseas market,..but show was not as popular as expected,..so heads were trashed,.and since Mego did re-use their 8" bodies for others,..then why not use them on this test market Aquaman that will include a battery propelled Shark,..just as we planned for the MFA?? we can reuse the incert card and redesign the package?? This was discussed,...But Marty would only see what sells,.what doesnt....
    Anyway,...any help on posting the pics i have, will be appreciated. Or you can send me a PM with your email address,..and I'll gladly send them over....Thanks!

      I've created a PowerPoint presentation for anyone having trouble uploading to the new gallery. Here's an .exe PC folks can download and run: http://megomuseum.com/community/help/gallery-use.exe Here's the raw Power Point file: http://megomuseum.com/community/help/gallery-use.ppt And here's a really awful-looking Web-based


      A link with detailed instructions on posting pictures to the Museum Galleries.

      Once you get that far, its pretty easy to post them here or a link to your gallery

              Next time you try to pass off someone else's pictures as your own, try to doctor them up a little, instead of uploading 5 year old pictures that were taken by the real owner of this figure, especially when that person has already posted in this thread.


              __________________________________________

              I am guessing most of your insight came from this thread on the old Mego Museum forums, and possibly others like it. It's good to know that people do their research, but it'd be nice if you didn't try to pass off theories and guesses as fact...

                Now that is lame! Why lie about such a thing? Did it make you feel important for a minute? I actually am imbarrassed for you.

                    I can't believe he went through with posting them. I figured if it was a scam, we'd just never hear from him again once we asked for pics.

                    If this is how you get your jollies, then I weep for you.

                      Kinda thought this would happen all along but was hoping for a different outcome. Sad.

                            Friends,..there seems to be a big misunderstanding here,..I never mentioned I had the figure,..you can see in my past posts,..that what I did say was that i had were pics of this figure (sent to me by Mark Huckabone years ago), in case anyone never saw them upclose and would have liked to see them,..not that i had him (i wish),..and the info was from an article i read years ago in a newspaper type magazine called Collectors United. I never intended to trick anyone,..but to show you pics of the rare hands this figure had.

                              LOL! wow this sucks! I kinda had a feeling this would happen.
                              Dude just next time be a little more specific with what you mean,But honestly though.You don't think a site like this one would already have that info and pic?

                                Mark used to have 4 or 5 Aquaman vs. The Great White Shark sets (at least that many). He checked all of them in 2004 after he saw Roberto's figure at MegoCon. None of the Aquamans in the sets had the web hands.
