    Who would buy a skeleton cowboy?
    Pretty lame attempt at clearing out their stock

      You might have ...
      and I think it's a cool idea myself.
      ... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.

        Actually its a brilliant chance to get a lot of custom parts for next to nothing. Look at the site and you can order various shirts, pants, heads, bodies, belts, weapons, etc for around 5.00 as compared to buying each piece separetly. With that possible item I have a ghost rider head, a Megoish body, some leatherish pants, a gun and holster etc when if pieced out might be closer to 15.00. I got a boatload of clothes from them the other day using this idea and have all the clothes I need for some customs I'm working on and a bunch of bodies now. Anything I don't want I let it pile up and can either make customs with them later or sell on ebay as a custom parts lot and we all know how much those auctions go for.

          Also, they have told me of some things comming down the pike that sound exciting. Service was pleasant, ordered Weds and had items Fri. Whens the last time that happened? They made one mistake and I'm sure they will fix it as they always do. GO CTVT.

            For the record, I'm not knocking them. I actually think it's a good idea on their part like renegade said. Plus, everyone may not need a "skeleton cowboy" Muele, but everybody does need a "zombie cowboy"

                  I think it's fantastic! it may mean that they are paying attention to what's happening here, which I didn't was the case.

                  I think they made a good move recently by making the SWAT gear, and I think if they could make more new accessories like that, they could get a lot of orders. New Mego scale weapons, hats and helmets, boots...I don't know what else. Do you think it would work?

                    I had actually clued them in on what I was doing. I was talking with them (and they are great guys by the way) about doing some bulk buys to build morte Max's to sell locally on the new show that's coming this fall to where I work. Anyway on to your point... I think with the retro resurrgence CTVT, DOC Mego, and Cast-a-way are all in a really good spot to produce "in conjunction" toys. Scaled weapons, playsets, vehicles... the skies the limit if the kids get on board.
