    this is gonna be a blueprint, bible, and jumping point for so many customizers and bashers. Wow. So much talent in one place.

    definitely - big thanks to all the customizers who submitted in the first place, Scott for getting the ball rolling on it, and definitely to Anthony for polishing it up so nicely.

    The amount of thought and care put into this, as illustrated by the discussions on what figures would really have sold and in what kind of case assortments, is phenomenal. If this was presented by a real company at Toy Fair this weekend, your phones would never stop ringing. Heck, if any copy of this does get out at Toy Fair, some of you may be getting phone calls from the manufacturers looking for this kind of top notch talent. Kudos all around.

    Super awesome

                Thomas, as to Batman '66 on the cover, I just couldn't fit everyone's customs...For Batman '66, the logical one to represent the line on the cover would have been Batman himself. However, without the rest of the line beside him I'm not sure anyone back then would have made the distinction between him and the regular Mego Batman. So I choose Mego Batman because Mego still would have had many of their more popular figures (like Supes, Kirk and Spidey) on the cover.

                I choose your Creech though because I thought he best showcased the new Universal line and was a character that Mego hadn't previously attempted with the Mad Monsters.
                Oh, I didn't mean it quite the way it must've sounded, I wasn't accusing you of anything, it's not even that important. I figured it would be because of Mego Batman, no problem at all

                      it will be interesting to see which of these figures actually get made in the new 8" boom we're experiencing. I've already counted a couple.
                      Fresh, not from concentrate.

                        Hmmm, that's an interesting question. Batman 1966 is out for sure, unfortunately, but others have a strong possibility, especially the WGSH
                        Universal monsters could be possible, maybe not all, but definitely some. And Trek is a no-brainer

                            Bump!

                            Strong chance of these arriving tomorrow.

                            Scott has cooked up a wonderful "gimmee" to be included with the catalog. More details to follow.
