    Simon Stagg - nemesis of Metamorpho

    Here is Simon Stagg nemesis of Metamorpho. I cannot recall Stagg ever being immortalized in an action figure before now.

    Head is a repro FC Wolverine painted by yours truly; suit by me; Mego Wizard of Oz shoes and stylin' jacket by Hawkmike. The goal was to keep him in the style of Mego Joker and Penguin. I am pretty happy with the result.



    Simon takes on Metamorpho



    Some background about Stagg:

    Simon Stagg is an inventor and the founder and CEO of Stagg Enterprises. His company is responsible for pioneering new, innovative methods in the fields of engineering, chemistry and genetics. Stagg, an unscrupulous man by nature, always resented the fact that his daughter, Sapphire, fell in love with the adventurer Rex Mason. Mason, a former employee of Stagg's, is more popularly known as Metamorpho – the Element Man. Simon always concocted various schemes to keep Sapphire and Rex apart – some of which, even put Metamorpho's life at great risk.





    Hope you enjoy and, as always, Thanks for looking!

    Peace, Love and Megos,

    Austin

                Thanks again Austin. Funny thing is... what I said earlier about his
                curved hairstyle doesn't really apply near as much as I thought it did.
                My memory must've remembered some different shots I guess... but the
                Who's Who is very simillar.

                Anyways... it's a beautiful figure... clean, sweet detail in the suit
                and very rich colors... speaking of which, your Metamorpho's colors
                are BEAUTIFUL looking !!!
                "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

                            Great Likeness with the Head Sculpt.
                            The Jacket is pretty Damn Spiffy too.
