This seems to be the favorite game of all mego fans. Every one I talk to - be they fan or pro - has their dream list of what they want to see mego-ized.
I have been telling people at Toy Fair that when Mego went out of business,
it was like the Dodgers leaving Brooklyn. It was a sad ending to a great
history. I compare EMCE Toys bringing back mego to the Dodgers coming
back to Brooklyn.

1 - ROBERT E HOWARD ---- Conan, Kull, Red Sonja (Dynamite might give you rights to the Marvel design), Solomon Kane!
2 - DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS --- You could sell a gazillion Drizzt figures! Tanis Half-Elven! Caramon! Raistlin! Elminster! Orcs! Lizard Men! All kinds of possibilities here.
3 - LORD OF THE RINGS -- The only problem here is that the Hobbits and Dwarves would require a whole new body. Might be too costly. But I'd love a Gandalf and Strider.Comment

I say as long as it is profitable, feasible and makes good business sense for EMCE/Diamond to create each line requested (within reason of course) then go for it. The more the merrier!Enjoy what you like, and let others enjoy what they like. (C) Azrak 2009

ok, while I like the dark shadows Idea odds are against it, extra outfits for different times, yea, that would be cool. however how about the universal monsters, a mego take on the ahi figures. you could even do the the teen age werewolf and such. now of course the wgsh! that's a no brainer, with heroes that were never done, what everyone wants. how about the shield, the black hood, flyman, flygirl and the comet?. didn't lion rock do hard plastic figures of these heroes in the 80's?. I alway's thought land of the giants and a spindrift playset would have been cool. (we could have been the characters and the giants) voyage to the bottom of the sea, the time tunnel. re-do all the most popular original mego stuff first, that way some one without a collection could enjoy what we did, then introduce new stuff the way the trek figures are coming out. we've waited a long time for this stuff to return, what I think it say's is that mego made such a great toy in the 70's that it's just as good if not better than what's done today. gi joe, johnny west and MEGO! we had it pretty good. now "mego" by another name is back and this time around we have the money to spend on it all.

What Mego Line Do YOU Want to See??
I concur with'ya a spaghetti Western Clint Eastwood and probably some other western characters from cowboy shows (Gunsmoke) will be nice. Incidentally, F-troop will be a cool license in my eyes.Last edited by Ivaniski; Feb 20, '08, 5:09 PM.Comment

I am going to post again with more stuff for my wishlist:
#1 Star Trek
no Roman Numerals, no colon, no subtitle, just my favorite childhood toys, and those that should have been. (I would be interested in Animated Series characters too.) I will buy at least one of everything EMCE puts out. Yes, even a disco Mugato. Once Scottie reaches the stores, I will finally create my shelf full of Expendable Red Shirts: Lt. Lance Alott, Ensign Galahad, etc.
#2 Batman
the 1966-69 TV show with Adam West
I have made some customs, but EMCE getting that license and putting out actual, “real” figures from that series would be a dream come true for me.
#3 Planet of the Apes
my next door neighbor had all 10, so I never thought I needed my own personal set back then; I need to correct that error. I want anything and everything from all five movies, and both TV series. I will buy at least one of everything (tons of type-2 Soldiers) and supplement them with those horses the Doc is selling on his website. Taylor, ANSA Astronauts, Apes in Spacesuits, Mutants, Conquest Apes – bring ‘em on ! I am ready to spend spend spend ! Tim Burton’s POTA ? not interested.
#4 Space: 1999
I have CTVT’s, but I would gladly buy EMCE’s
#5 Gerry Anderson’s U.F.O.
greatly underappreciated, and horribly forgotten by everyone, this show with its silver bodysuits, Nehru jackets, and human-looking aliens in spacesuits was made for Mego-ization
#6 Logan’s Run
I really want 8” scaled repros of those prototypes – I WILL have them someday…..
#7 the Visitors
a series I thought of
My current project is buying Doc’s Alien heads molded in assorted colors with matching colored bodies and trying out different colored bodysuits. I found a guy online who makes Silver Surfer bodysuits, and the shiny material is perfect for these.
(I couldn’t name this series “Aliens” because that means something to us action-figure and SciFi geeks)
#8 WGSH
a big DUH! there
I do not think there is a single registered member of this forum that does not want that, and Green Lantern, Flash, etc etc
#9 Monsters
I have CTVT’s, but I would gladly buy EMCE’s
One can never have too many Monsters, especially in October in my house !
#10 Knights, Robin Hood, Pirates, American West
I am about to order CTVT’s any day now, so if EMCE has any announcement, I would appreciate it before I send all my Mego Money™ up to Rhode Island
#11 The Astronauts
another one of my no-license-required concepts, this time providing us with an assortment of NASA accurate and science fiction inspired spacesuits. Just imagine having a Mego-scaled Lunar Module and two Apollo astronauts. My God, that would bring tears to my eyes…..
#12 Six Million Dollar Man
a lot of Megoheads have been asking for this in this topic.
I never even thought of it, was not at all into it, but the more I think about a Mego sized Steve Austin, the more I like the concept
But until that remake is filming, can’t see any real appeal for DST to try to sell them.
#13 Bond, James Bond
#14 Zorro, Lone Ranger and TontoComment
