    If Mego were still doing figures today and they released Lex, I think this is exactly how he would be done. I LOVE the Superfriends outfit. As much as I completely embrace the way Lex is portrayed today, THIS is how he looks in my world.
    WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.

      Change nothing, it looks like an actual Mego mixed with a custom. In my mind that's the perfect combo

            I've never been a Fan of Lex Luther(until Smallville)...but I will be buying this Guy, just to have a complete Collection. And he looks VERY Mego!

                  I know they're a little outdated at this point but I would've peed my pants if the head sculpts of Supes & Luthor looked like a 3d interpretation of Curt Swan's artwork!

                    Funny! I too would be searching for some Depends if that had happened with the sculpts. Though, I think Luthor is pretty good as is. I think the old supes looked Swan like to me.

                      The Lex Luthor head was sculpted by Chris Orlando and the Superman head
                      was based on the vintage MEGO head and altered by Andy Covalt, but
                      neither guy had any contact with the other.

                      I purposely did not sent Chris Reed Richards or Superman for reference,
                      nor did I send him the Thor head because I wanted him to base Luthor
                      on the Superfriends cartoons.

                      Personally I never liked Curt Swan's art. Nothing against the quality
                      of his work, I just think he made everything midtown Manhattan and
                      everyone was middle class caucasian regardless of their skin color.

                      Just my opinion.

                          I'm really excited for this and Hal Jordan. This looks perfect.

                            I'm just hoping he comes with a little plastic piece of Kryptonite to menace Superman with.
