    Clark Kent to Superman Figure: Thanks, Hallmark!

    Hello, Everyone.

    Here's a quickie custom I just finished, thanks to Hallmark. Hallmark had an ornament called "Just Like Superman" for its 2007 Christmas collection. I thought it looked Mego-sized, and voila! It fit!

    The Hallmark ornaments are now 50% off the retail price, by the way.

    I am currently working on resizing the Wonder Woman ornament Hallmark made this year. Hopefully, I'll post that figure relatively soon.

    Thanks also to Scout who sent me a Mego Superman head with rubs which I repainted.

    1. Here's the Clark Kent figure I posted awhile back:



    That figure is packed away, so I can't use its accessories right now. Just imagine if you will.....that figure throwing off his hat, glasses, and briefcase (and switching from a type I to type II body *laughs!*):

    2. Full shot of Clark transitioning to Superman



    3. Closeup of the figure wearing the Hallmark jacket/shirt/Superman costume.



    4. Clark hears a call for help. "What's that?? Timmy's in the well?" Off he sprints......and like a bird...like a plane.....WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!!!!




    Thanks for looking!

      It looks good on him. But I didn't know George Hamilton played Superman! (just joking)

          Yeah...I know. This Supes head was amazingly dark and it looks moreso now because I varnished it after repainting the eyebrows, eyes, and hair. LOL!

                    Are these those ornaments that look like costumes on wire hangers?
                    Yep, tomstoyz2.

                    And MegoScott, Thanks for posting those links! I appreciate it!

                    Thanks, Overkill!

                    Thanks to you again, Scout!

                      Are these available half price at the retail stores? I may have to make a lunch trip to Hallmark tomorrow!

                          That looks great, well done and good eye.
                          What other costumes besides WW and CK do they have?

                            Looks good on him. What do you have to do to the Wonder Woman one? is it too big for Mego?

                              Thats real neat K. I saw those in a glance during some Xmas shopping, however Thought they looked too small. Congrats, It looks great on the Mego Body.
