I've just had my Green Arrow arrive and have the other 4 on the way too. This is a big thing for me as I'm mainly a vintage collector and don't really touch anything new. I wasn't going to go for them but changed my mind because in all honesty, the GA is superb! The card back has lovely graphics, the weathering is a lovely touch too.
I know there have been some gripes about the legs being bulky, but don't let that put you off. They really aren't that bad at all. Doc and the guys have done a fab job in bringing these back and now I can't wait to see who will be in the next wave. I'd gladly display these next to my vintage toys, as they fit in so well.
I have one question though; are there any plans to have different coloured cards in the next wave? It's not really a biggie but thought I'd ask
.

Well at least they fixed the cape. From the pic, it looks like they've hemmed them which is a step up from what Mego did back in the day IMHO. This was something that concerned me once I found out Megos were making a return. The old capes frayed after a period of time.My Buddy (who's a Mego Geek) says the Superman head looks more like Rocky Marciano. I told him that it's just the angle of the shot behind the bubble. Wish we had a closer and better shot front/profile of this Superman head (hope he has a slight protruding chin),......I luv me some Supes! My All-time favorite DC character.

Cool. I'll buy two Supes then, so I can make a Marciano custom to recreate the computer fight against my mego Ali.Leave a comment:

Rocky was one of my favorite Boxers of all time.

The Prototype's Superman head is really starting to grow on me and my kids.

Doc, Being that you got to see the Superman retail version at DC comics, can you tell me if it closely resembles that of the Prototype? The Prototype's Superman head is really starting to grow on me and my kids.I saw Lex Luthor, Sinestro, and Superman at DC Comics last week.
The guys at DC only got 2 of each carded and didn't want to open
Luthor or Sinestro.
Because China shuts down for two weeks for Chinese New Year, I
suspect that the figures were shoved onto a boat to avoid any
delays due to the holiday.

Pilling!
I opened up my GA as soon as he arrived...dressed him up with clothes from the Doc himself and have been having a blast megoing again! Doc...I hope you continue alternate fun stuff to add to the party....still love what you got in the store...and I am going to order more! GA can never have too much stuff at his disposal! However...the new Retro suit is pilling a bit...whereas your suit does not! Maybe darker colors or a more likely a different material may help! Just a suggestion from a BIG fan!Leave a comment:

Thank youI don't want to be disagreeable, but I have no doubt that Superman will sell very well, accessories or not. No little kid is going to see an awesome Superman figure in the toy aisle, run and excitedly take it off the peg, and then look at it a little bit and put it back saying, "I don't want this. He doesn't have an accessory!"

All I have to say is....Thanks Doc Mego, Emce and Mattel for making this possible. Especially finally having Lex Luthor!Leave a comment:

For an accessory for Superman ..., you guys Know you could probably make a Break-Away Chain for like 5 Bucks at Joan's ... pretty easy.

Agreed. I'm basically getting them for retail cost WITHOUT having to drive around and look for them. Plus my wife is covering these as part of my Valentines gift...Now isn't that just sweet?Diamond Solicitated these figures for 26.97 Before Tax..., Right ? If you Bought 1 Green Arrow From Matty,.. and Nothing else..., Wasn't He 28.97 or something Shipped ? If you actually Scene these Hanging on a Peg at Toysrus ( Which I seriously Doubt,.. I will ever,.. atleast not with mine Here) ... Lets say these were infact 19.99 ... + Tax,.. what's that ? 22.50 ?
If so,.. I seriously Doubt that this is that great of a Mark up..., Let alone a Scalper to the Degree that He wants to try and Rip you off .... Looks like His Prices are pretty right on me ... Just Saying ...
