    Glad to see you bringing MEGO into the 21st century. You're setting the bar high and leaving the competition in your dust!

    Thanks. Pass on to Sam that he did a fine job. I am really looking forward to these.

    Man, I got my $25.00 in for the black bearded A.J.! Those pics are making me even more excited for these figures! I wish I could buy all eight!

    Thanks!
    We're still working out our options with the factory on that but they'll either be injection molded PVC or rotocast. Regardless of which method we use they will be cast in a flesh tone material.

    Thanks! That helps me picture it better. I don't know if you made it easier or harder for me, though... they all look awesome.

    I can see a lot of cool customs/kit bashes with those heads.

    Bruce Wayne, Hal Jordan, Dr. Niles Caulder, Race Bannon and Benton Quest, Steve Rogers, Aquaman very cool

    here is a quick and dirty of what they look like painted... take this with a GIGANTIC bolder sized grain of salt... the real paint will blow this away... but it's way more fun to visualize...

    I can't decide what hair color to go with, though. Once the 10th comes and the Kickstarter period ends, are we locked in? Or is it possible to change our color selection after we see the painted prototypes?
    Well... we hope to get them done soon, but if we run out of time and somebody is just totally disatisfied with their selection we could probably allow a switch. Try to nail it down if ya can though... just saves time and work later. Now adding more to your pledge... not a problem

    Pure awesomeness! I opted for the non-bearded figures but man does he look awesome with the facial hair.
    These figures have to be a no-brainer for ToysRuS, right?
    I know that figures.com has been busy with the convention coverage lately, but I cant believe this didn't get mention over the last few weeks?

    I didn't think it could get any better...but it did. That is one handsome, manly man of action! AJ finally put away that ugly stick he was beaten with!

    Why would we re-make the old outfits?

    Have no fear bro, we have no intention of resurecting the old stuff.... no surfboards or hockey outfits in our forseable future
