    Doc Mego said in another thread that the second wave would have a different color card.

    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.

    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.

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

    Rocky was one of my favorite Boxers of all time.

    The same guy is now selling them individually for $22.95 and $7.50 for shipping so $30.45 .....Darn it very tempted.

    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!

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!"
    Thank you

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

    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.

    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 ...
    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?
