Custom Mego Inspired (sort of) Christmas ornaments!

[Riddle23942]

Just finished these tonight, and thought I'd post them. Not exactly figures, but definitely custom made! Every year I try and spice up my Christmas tree with some homemade ornaments. This year, inspired but the Mego-goodness of the 70s, I made some DC superhero ornaments. I used the cardboard figure pieces from the old Ideal Batman and Superman sets for these. Not the real ones of course, but nice quality scans of my originals. They are great because they have a front and back. Once I scanned them and glued them onto carboard and coated them, I added some white glitter and a ribbon to hang them with. I like the way they turned out, so I think I might make some more.

The Sparkles complete the 70's feel.

Any chances of you posting the scans anywhere for any of us to use? I have to decorate a tabletop tree at work, and see inspiration here!
