    Re-Mego of the Day: Gorn

    It seemed fitting to start this week looking at the reemergence of the 8" format by spotlighting the Gorn, truly one of the bigger "wishlist" figures made possible this time by the good people at EMCE.

    For more about modern age 8" action figures, visit our growing ReMego Galleries today.

      I generally go with the original because of the sentimentality attached, but in this case, the Emce figure was just soooo much better. Mego could have easily repainted a green Lizard head and done a similar costume.

        I had to buy this figure because it's so spot on, plus it still has the Mego feel.

                  These are great, and certainly a pickup, but always on the back burner, knowing they can be picked up any time, but definately on next years list.

                    Correcting mego's Gorn is my second biggest wish come true, right after a mego Lex Luthor.
