    Haven't posted in a while. Been pretty darn busy over the summer filling custom orders.

    Sorry these are not mego, but with the right graphics, I could build many different vans that would fit nicely in the mego world. 8-)









    I used Big Jim camping vans for the custom. I had to use a special vinly paint for the vans, not just a rattle can of krylon. Now all of the graphics are Premium 6 Year UV Outdoor Grade computer die-cut vinyl. This vinyl is water proof too. Not a single paper decal is used.

    The PACK van is based on a mini-comic that came out in the 70's. Mattel was suposed to produce one like it, but instead produced the Beast which is a re-issue of their camping truck. The Kung-Fu Van was my 9 year old son's idea. I have the Big Jim Kung-Fu studio and he said "Hey Dad, how about a Kung-Fu Van?" I'm training him well.

    I have lots of ideas for more vans that I'm going to build very soon: Spiderman, Batman, a Golden Age The Black Terror...the list goes on and on. Also if anyone would like me to build them a van, just drop me a PM.

    All thoughts are welcome.

            Thanks for the kind words guys. Means alot. Yes, I do sell these vans. The Punisher would be an EASY one to do. Spidy is in the works. With many others too. One the great things about these vans is they work for Big Jim, of course, but Mego and most 12" figures like GiJoe. I can see a yellow and orange Adventure Team van right now.

                Oh man, those are cool. They remind me of Tims custom vans (he uses Batlabs tho), I bet he would get a kick out of these

                  Really neat idea. They fit in with the Big Jim line perfectly.

                        Fantastic!!! (or should that be VAN-tastic). They are great customs, I echo the sentiment for an Adventure Team version!!!
