Toys For Tots
Hello All,
Happy Holidays!
Let me start by saying that I am not looking for any praise or pats on the back by starting this thread. I definitely don't want to sound like I'm tooting my own horn here.
My intention is to merely suggest, and maybe inspire some of my fellow Megoheads on this forum.
Last year, I was working on a three customs to donate to a toy charity.
They were to be new Hulks with vintage heads (unfortunately one of the CTVT bodies was bad).
So I finished up the two, but it was too late for the distribution to the kids before Christmas.
So this year I am trying to get 2-3 more done in time.
I cannot take credit for the idea though. A member on this forum, who I will not mention, unless they want to come forward, was making custom Batman and Robins for charity and I thought that was an awesome idea.
I am writing this thread to share this idea with all of you. What a great way to share Megos with a younger generation, and helping the poor, or sick, or otherwise unfortunate kids at the same time.
Even if you can't do customs, there are lots of cool Megos out there, some a pretty low prices that can be donated.
I had every intention to mention this a month ago, and time just keeps flying by.
Here's my 2 Hulks from last year.
Repainted Vintage Hulk heads, CTVT bodies, and CTVT Pirate pants dyed purple and string added.

This year I'm using the CTVT Hulk purple pants.

They are a little loose but I took them in a bit.
I added eyebrows to set them apart from Original Megos.
Besides Mego forgot to paint them!
Please donate toys even if it's not Mego-Like, because imagine if we grew up without toys.
Happy Holidays!
