    I'm pretty sure they just use a vacuform stencil and hit it with an airbrush.
    Expectation is the death of discovery.

      The prototype heads on CTVT's website look updated from the Mego sculpts. Paul no longer has Captain's sculpted hair and Peter's sculpt looks like it might be missing Lex's eyebrows.
      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...

            Thanks MIB41!

            I often wondered why Peter had such a sour puss...thought it might have been his exclusion from the first wave . Funny though, Pete's sculpt has always been my fave from the Mego line because it didn't look as innocent and sweet as the other 3, now I know why!

            Thank you too Lex!!

                  They have plenty of KISS product, but the figures are not part of what they are selling.

I think the Kiss figures hit the market first but the two lines would have been in development, simultaneously. The sculpt does look more like Hackman than it does Peter Criss. So, I'm guessing that Mego created the sculpt for the Superman line and pulled the wool over Kiss's eyes twice. Wow. I guess they all should have demanded that they have their tongues out to insure each member got an original sculpt.

                      And I wrote an update too that I sent to Palitoy. But Palitoy has been super busy

                            Hopefully the new KISS figures will be rolling out shortly.

                              We have some cases coming in once they deliver. We may be able to sell them cheaper than the Figures Inc site since their shipping can be pricey!
                              I'll let you know once we get the invoice and see what we have to work with!

                                Agreed! MEGO73 sent me the custom boxes and I have the boots all ready to go. I just lack the figures. I thought these were coming out last month?
                                If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
