    That is utterly FANTASTIC! They should make those commercially! Great job!

            Now that is a set of Mego customs I have always wanted to make. But, seeing these I would buy them from you to save me the time. I wouldn't change a thing.

            Please tell us more about where you acquired the heads and accessories.

                Thank you Austin! It's an honor coming from one of the best customizers out there!

                Here's a breakdown of components used to make these:

                Heads - Mattel Real Men Finger Puppets
                Bodies - Mattel Retro Action DC Heroes (Yes, Mattel own both head and body molds so they can make them if they want to)
                Clothing - Multiple! Here are some of the obvious: Mego Starsky blue shirt and CTVT Space 1999 white pants for Commander,
                Mego Action Jackson Spy outfit for The Whip (Beanie hat, shirt and pants)
                Dr. Mego Trek pants for Dr. Steel.
                CTVT Vest and pants for Warpath
                Clothing for Torpedo Fist made by me. Also must tailor a bit all the above to better fit into retro bodies.
                Accessories - Commander's Holster, Torpedo Fist's Striking Fist and The Whip's Bandana made by me using leather and painted with SEM Vinyl & Fabric spray paint.
                Boots & Belts - Cast-A-Way Toys
                Decals - PACK logos & Dr. Steel chest tattoo made by ThatBatmanGuy and the awesome paws print on boots sole by PMWasson
                Cards - Designed and made by The Toyroom
                Clamshells - Dr. Mego

                If anyone is particular about anything else just shoot me a PM and I'll be glad to help. Thank you all for the compliments!

                          Looks just like they came from the toy rack at Toys R Us in the 70s! Nicely done.
