Original Mego Factory Head Molds Found

[RSS]

Some amazing pieces of Mego history recently surfaced in the form of these original factory head molds for the Mego Elastic Heroes line of toys. Pictured above the Spider-Man head mold reunited with his “child” a factory produced Spider-Man. Original Mego factory molds are not regularly or commonly found with most feared destroyed decades ago.




Above is Superman and his factory produced counterpart (who sadly no longer has a body) courtesy of* the website Collectingsuperman.com. Both of these pieces were found in a collection of a person who inhereted them from a relative known to be a sculptor. Check out the gallery below for more shots, hopefully this isn’t the last of rare mego factory items to surface. * *

How do these molds work ?

Are they hollow and the vinyl is dumped in ?

Or are these the insides of a mold ?

Very neat find

I don't work for the Museum, but I don't understand what you mean. The Mego Museum RSS feed is here, and it appears to be current:
