    All mego DareDevil

    I did him like Mego would have.A piece off of every mego they were already making.A painted Batman Head, a red Spidey body, Shazam suit with the yellow cuffs removed, and Iron Man boots and gloves.
    Finshed him off with a shield and a belt .

    That's really cool. Extra points for authenticity. Are the Iron Man boots repro? That must have cost you a mint. Nice work.

          Nice work. Where did you get the belt? I want to put a DD together. I have the head done, suit and boots are accessible, it's the belt that's holding me back

            The belt is a rubber wrist band that was given away at Walmart for the release of a Harry Potter movie.I cut it down to fit, then cut a piece to make a buckel the took a "D" from the wife's scrap book letters for it.
            What did you use for a head?

              Excellent work.

              DAREDEVIL is a custom I have on my TO DO list and your approach is right on. I have always liked to use "found items" on custom pieces and the use of the IRON MAN gloves and boots along with the re-worked BATMAN head are excellent choices if a customizer does not sew, or sculpt.

              Excellent!!!

                Neat, like the idea of the shield.

                  Thanks Joe, the shield is a color disk from work.We were trying different colored reds for the right color to run through a mold.Couldn't see them going to waste.The devil head sticker is off a Casillero del Diablo wine bottle.

                    Great job, and probably exactly what Mego would've done

                        Famous covers Daredevil comes with a nice belt/billy club set-up. I've sold a coulple here and there at the museum. Apparently, they work really well.
