    New Mattel survey asks about 8 inch Mego style figures.

    Just spotted a thread at toymania about Mattel's new online survey. Checked it out a bit. Asks a lot of questions about wanting retro 8 inch Mego style figures. Probably means nothing, but still kinda cool.

    Link to survey:

    Mattel's doing an online survey right now...go take it!
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

          Some of those questions, like the Adam West Batman one or the one about Big Jim made me happy.

                I was also impressed/shocked they mentioned Major Matt Mason and Thundercats.

                  It would be awesome if something postive came out of it.

                    I found that very interesting indeed. Could it be somebody at Mattel is actually a real live toy fanatic...or at the very least, listening to "our kind"?

                    Really hope this all goes somewhere.

                      It won't let me take the survey,
                      based on the initial round of questions,
                      possibly because I said I worked in the Entertainment Industry.


                      Thank you for your interest. However, at this time, we are looking for survey respondents who fit a different profile.

                      Please do not be discouraged, as there may be future studies to which you will be invited to participate.

                          Very interesting and encouraging survey. Maybe mattel is going to get on the re-mego bandwagon. Thanks for posting it.

                            They're probably mulling over some old names, looking for something to bring back that collectors still remember.

                              It's difficult for me to explain but I can honestly say there are toy geeks in Mattel R&D.
