    Custom of the Day - 6/24/2014 - Great White Shark

    Now that the dust has settled from Mego Meet 2014 it's time to catch up on customs. For the rest of this week we'll be spotlighting one per day to recognize some of the great customs that have been posted in the past two weeks. Kicking it all off is Chad Gordy's Great White Shark. Mego Museum members have followed the epic journey of this project, through fits and starts and seemingly impossible obstacles. Bringing this project home with the help of a few friends is a testament to Chad's perseverance.

    Follow the progress in this thread - pics below are just the tip of the iceberg: http://megomuseum.com/community/show...at-White-Shark





















    And see the final results here: http://megomuseum.com/community/show...-Shark-playset

        I have mad respect to the commitment Chad put into this, I was glad to see he still had all his hair and it was not gray at MMX.

                  Wow thanks Steve!
                  Looking back at the pics you posted here was very cool.
                  Even though it took a year, it sure moved fast. I'd forgotten some of the steps along the way.
                  I'm super happy to have got this turkey done for the group and lay that nasty ole curse to rest.
