1983 Imagined Project

[megowgsh]

It is hard to believe it has been 5 years since we started down the road of the 1978 re-imagined project, but it has.

It is now 2013 and I would like to propose a new project in the tradition of "1978" focusing on 1983 and imagining what might have been if Mego did not shutter it's doors.

This thread is simply to gauge interest and see if it is a viable idea. I am not necessarily looking for suggestions or submissions, but for interested participants whether it be customizers, designers, photographers, etc.

You can count me in as an interested customizer. Anybody else?

Hey Austin...count me in. I'll offer submissions, photoshopping or however else I can help.

This would be one of those years when I was actively collecting as a kid. Great properties from both tv and movies. Nice fantasy material to.

Would be cool, I think.

1983 is such a good year for it. After the dregs of Mego 1982 the company rebounds with a huge catalog of new stuff instead of going bankrupt and vanishing.

It's a lot of work, but an intriguing idea!

What better way to start it than with Dida Displays.

1978 was great fun. Would love to see what the local squish heads would come up with for an 83 rebound.

Que up the A-Team, Knight Rider, and Magnum PI TV themes. There's a hint of what could've been.

Bump this!

I think this is a terrific idea. We've got a lot of talented costumizers on this board, probably more than ever, that could do some fantastic work. I know of the work involved with photography and logistics, but this would be awesome to pull off. Anthony did the best design work of his life on the 1978, and I can only imagine he would top what he put down last time.

A-Team
Miami Vice
Magnum
Cosby Show
Return of the Jedi
The Fall Guy
Simona and Simon

A couple of those might be from 84, can't remember. With everything that routinely happen on this board with our trolls and sociopaths popping in, a project like this could bring the community together again in a unique way. Just a thought.
