The John Williams Project Finished!!!!

[dreddbatfan]

As some of you know that I posted several months ago about a 9 year old boy that I've become his big brother because he's an only child.He saw my superheroes that I created and made into 8" mego action figures,he loved them so much that he came up with his own superhero named "BLACKHAWK" and I told him that I'd make a figure for him.I surprised him today with the finished figure and he was so happy with it that he was crying and he gave me a big hug.I told him that I had a lot of help making him and he wanted me to thank everyone that helped make him,he just loves it and he's going to show him off at school.Below are pictures of me and John William and his Blackhawk and the box.I'd like to thank a bunch of customizers here for their help in making a 9 year old boys dream come true.

Doc Mego for his swivel bicep arm muscle body(Thanks Doc)
Blackknight for the custom head and painting it(Thanks Jason)
Brian Leitner for the outfit(Thanks Brian)
David Lee for the superhero boots(Thanks David)

I thought this was going to be about a compilation of John Williams's scores but this is even better!

Way to go dude. And to everyone one of you up there who pitched something in who got a thank you - I am proud to be a member of the same "club" you are all in...

Be Proud Danny.

That's what making toys is all about... a kid getting and awesome plaything!

Wow, what a great thing to do, and that is honestly a VERY cool design, and an excellent execution of that design. You should both be VERY proud.

All sentiments aside, which are well-deserved, this is simply a badass figure. As someone who does his own thing with his own characters, I have to give up the accolades on this project and say it's the best original custom Mego figure I've seen in a long long time, perhaps ever. By enlisting the best in the hobby you've acheived the best possible final result, an incredible figure and a happy and surprised child.

This is all the evidence needed to proclaim the Mego Museum the best site on the web. If you ever feel like making a villain for him, count me in on that project. This is the best thread I've seen in a while here, thank you for that and thanks to all who contributed. I gotta vote COTW for this one.

Danny, that figure is awesome!!!
Nice work! That is such a great thing you did for that boy!
