RIP Derek AKA MegoCanada

[megowgsh]

It is a sad day for sure. He was always ordering heads from me for customs. Just sent him a set of Wrecking Crew heads a few weeks back. Would have loved to have seen what he would have done with them. I always enjoyed his customs.

That's horrible. So sad to hear this. I didn't know him, but I'm so sorry for those who did. Hope he's in a better place, and that his friends and family remember him often with happiness.

Sorry to hear this. Derek once commissioned 35 Legion of Super Hero suits from me. All the 70's versions.

Sorry to hear this. Derek once commissioned 35 Legion of Super Hero suits from me. All the 70's versions.

earlier this year he showed me pics of a bunch of the Legion figures he had finally gotten around to completing. He was usually quite shy about showing off his customs work, and it was a big deal that he was finally posting them publicly on the Mego Museum FB customs group.

When we chatted about customs, he was always very complimentary about the suits you made for him.

Very sad 😢 I miss hearing from him on the boards.
