A Brief history of the Mego Museum and Obscure Mascots.

You know, I kind of miss the columns, etc. I loved the busts used to represent each wing of the gallery.

I found this girl mascot on the wayback machine.

I don't think she ever had an official name (not sure)

Do you mean you actually made one and the ones we see in the photo's is real ? ... or do you mean you spent months working on the details but never finished ?

No, it's all digital artwork that you see. Photoshop and 3D.

Here's my prototype saga, I just put this together: The Mego Museum - Mego Talk

Thanks. I know what you mean, but it was such a pain to have to make a new frikking marble bust everytime you added something to the site. Besides, I like the way the new design takes advantage of Mego color schemes and I do think it's more fun that the marble.

Wow, I never noticed that thread before .....
Man, that does look like it took a lot to make.

Excellent job on the photoshop one ... I couldn't tell it didn't exist in real life

I think that's one of the pictures they had in Toyfare when they did the feature for here all those years ago.

Love the tour, thanks again for all the hard work involved!

Seeing the old columns brings back some fun memories. It would be cool to have a retro month and bring them back to the front page for just a month but I'd guess it'd be too much work and a pain. It just goes to show how far the MM has come in a relatively short time.

It looked great

I remember the columns and that Wink Blinkman guy from before I even knew these forums existed....

They predated the forums by about 3 years.

This is fantastic stuff. I remember all of these things fondly. I am looking forward to the next couple of days. Lots of new things to enhance an already fun hobby!
