    As a fan of Mego-esque customs, I love Brian's stuff. I have a Flash and Green Lantern from Brian and both fit perfectly on my DC shelf. I had the pleasure of meeting him at the second Mego Meet and seemed like a very nice guy.

      I've gotten tons of heads from him, never any suits. That Flash I posted is a Leitner head. It fits in dead perfect with the DC9 line.

        Count me in for the Cult Of Brian Leitner

        Brian's an excellent customizer who, even tho' I am ultra-picky,
        and we tend not to agree on different methods of construction
        many a time, he's still stuck by me and done incredible things
        for my collection just the same

        My favorite figures of his that I own are HAWKEYE, SCARLET WITCH
        and DR. LIGHT (male 70s version) and he made me a TWO-FACE which
        really came together nicer than i expected

        One of the things I appreciate that he does, is the "sculpted" long hair
        head sculpts...he was kinda the forerunner in that area, and I
        think he set the bar high

        Cheers Brian L!
        "No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix

          His stuff is great. I definitely have more of his stuff than anyone else's. He captures the Mego look prefectly.

                Who else could scale all the way down to Our Gang scale so easily...



                I've thrown more than a couple of difficult challenges his way, and he always comes through.

                His complete customs are amazing as well. I rarely buy customs complete, but Megomeet provided too many great examples to pass up on, including these three Spiderman Rogues...



                These really don't do his work justice, they were just quick snaps of them I took before packing up to go home from WV this year. I have well over a dozen Spiderman Megos, and none of them has slept well since these three entered my collection.

                    Brian's the Man! He's made many Body Suits for Me, and His work is top-notch...and VERY Mego-ish. Here's a few:

                      I have a Leitner - Supergirl suit and it is excellent. I also have the Flash suit and a Painted Flash head by Brian. I will probably also get his Green Lantern outfit someday.

                      nice work!

                        I have a lot of Brian's work, including an amazing Colossus I won in the Mego Meet custom auction! I will try to post some of them soon.

                          Its all Brain's fault that I do customs. His perfect DC9 Flash head got me started.

                                I have bought a few outfits and heads from BL, going back to the NY MegoCon. This year I asked him to make a 12 inch Giant-Man costume for me.
