Cool update !!!

The Draconian Guard .....

His sculpt seems to have a familiarity about it.

Was it a resculpt of something existing ?

He seems to somewhat resemble the 12" Luthor but seeing as they had the same sculptor, it's possible it's coincedental:

I can see that.

I was thinking since the Draconian Guard is basically the only generic character in the line, Mego might have phoned him in from an existing sculpt.

Chris has a nice collection. They're impressive to see all Minty like that.

very nice update. And thanks Chris.

I recall watching BR at the drive-in as a kid. There was a screening of Harryhausen's Jason and the Argonauts on the opposite side of the parking lot and I remember being torn about which screen to look at. I am pretty sure I opted for watching the Harryhausen out the back window while listening to the tin speaker blurt out the 'biddy biddy' lines.

As a result, tho, I did not ever recognize half of the characters in Megos line and passed on them in favor of more Star Wars figures. Looking at them now from the Mego angle, I am quite impressed. So, once again, thanks for the updated galleries.

Wow, good work, that was fast, I just took many of the pictures yesterday! (about a month after I promised them to Dave though, I'm afraid I work much slower than the powers that be here )

I'm very happy to help out with this, I love this line and if this can inspire other people to start collecting these guys, great!

These are great to look at. In 1980, I wasn't spending much on toys back then, so while I remember wondering if I should get some of those guys, I never did spend my bucks on Buck.

Not to take anything away from them as they are nicely done, but I can't help but wish they were in 8" scale instead of 12". I just cant seem to get into the bigger figures in the Mego lines but I do have my eye on the Superman Movie ones. Just wish there weren't so many graying problems out there on some things.
