    Great write-up !!!

    Something i've always wondered ...

    Why didn't Mego just use a common flesh color body for Cheron and just use color casted hands ?
    It seems using a flesh body would be much cheaper for them at the time then casting a whole new color body ...

    ... and for us future collectors a flesh body would have kept the suit from browning.

        Love the Cheron, especially when he turns a little orange

            Cool review. I never understood adding the "hood" sculpt to the head, either.
            It's all good!

              Great review, it's interesting how Mego did things that were cost saving on some figures, but then did re-tooling on the Cheron head and the black body thing. Nice photos too!

                          Part of the Mego charm. Look at Mugatu: no where near series correct, but ya gotta love that outfit Mego gave him
