    Falcon gets my vote. Even with the Ape hands,it's still a pretty neat looking figure.

            Spider-Man. Like Iron Mego and Kingdom Warrior said, it's a simple figure with a perfect headsculpt and great, one-piece costume. All you needed was a piece of string for him to swing on, and you're off on an adventure. Plus, no parts or accessories to lose!
            "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                That's very kind of you to say - I was glad to get the quiver fixed (it took me about an hour after hanging up the phone with Mattel to make and cast the revised quiver)
                but I was disappointed that the boots came out so clunky in production.

                My best designed MEGO is the Andorian - with Green Arrow and Thor right behind him. The Andorian had little screen time on Star Trek but MEGO took great pains to
                give him an episode-accurate costume. For such a minor alien, they could have done him a lot cheaper and save some production money.

                Having said all that I will add that I think Paul and company trumped Mego's best design when they released the RA Green Arrow. They fixed the design flaw with the quiver, but retained that really nice head sculpt, while dialing back the size of his goatee. Overall a rousing success. So props to everyone involved in this figure. They brought their A game and knocked that one out of the park.

                  I was really fixated on Robin as a kid, to me he's rather quintessential.

                      Conan. He's angry, he's awesome, he has a double headed axe.

                        I always thought the Joker was a great sculpt, and I liked his suit.

                          I really like that it's "kid" Robin with spit-curls, instead of teen Robin--even if he is an eight-inch figure.

                            For me, it's Green Arrow, but Green Goblin and Falcon are also up there.

                                I apologize if I've started a redundant thread.
