That's big on my mind too, places like this might actually see an upsurge in newer collectors but I can only view that as a positive and EMCE trek and Apes has had that happening for two years now.
Vintage star wars has seen this for years. And on the upshot, Hasbro has made some things happen that you never would have seen or got shut down all those many years ago. Much like the GL, Sinestro, and Les. Vintage will always be vintage and will have a special place as the original item.
I'm not sure how I feel, exactly, but what comes to mind is how many times I've literally dreamed of walking into a Toys "R" Us and seeing that familiar packaging.
I know I'm excited to actually RELIVE that childhood experience, 'cause waking up in a World Without Mego is always such a letdown!
I'm stoked for this - they all look great, and I'll have no problem fitting 'em in with my vintage and custom Megos. That Superman is DEFINITELY on my want list!
"It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."
I love those pics. I am just too excited right now. And, definitely, my initial thoughts were just confusion after spending so much time and money building my customs collection. It's what I was used to. But this is much better. I can't wait to see what comes out. I think this will be a very successful line.
I have a five year old son..... I am more happy about this for him than for me.... I think it is exciting and great but I think it is more cool that he will be able to have his own Mego memories/experience.
The figures are being made by Mattel in their factory.
EMCE Toys are design consultants. We make the prototypes
and any changes requested by DC on said samples.
Diamond is not involved in this except to be REALLY happy
for us!

I'm a little confused: are these Mattel or EMCE/Diamond releases?
When will Green Arrow be available (through you or at mattycollector)?
As I was driving home from work, the question which arose in my mind was, "I wonder what kind of package they'll give these, boxed, or carded?" I'd imagine they would possible go with a retro style like the Star Trek and POTA.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!! Thank you PAUL!!! ...Okay. Let the blood floooow through the veins. Okay...okay. I'm fine now, I think. I have just a few questions Paul. Do you know what the packaging will look like and are there already plans for other characters that your allowed to share? One last question. Is Green Arrow the first to come out this fall at ToysRUS?
I just got back from Comic Con and the figures/prototypes?? look good...I took a couple of pics,
I will post them sometime tomorrow, im just too tired right now..
