worst WGSH Figure/Best

[SUP-Ronin]

Best over all: RM Bats, Green Arrow, Goblin - (my kid memories are voting on this one.)
Worst: Mxy - but only because of the scale and Grandma Walton.

I love Hulk and Conan. They are two of my personal favs but I also agree with why people don't like them. Hulk is great except for the height issue. I totally love the Mego Conan with his Angry expression and multiple accessories. However he is obviously way, way too skinny.

Best: Green Arrow - the best combination of accessories, outfit, and sculpt
Worst: Catwoman - the outfit isn't my cup of tea

[Gorn Captain]

As usual, I find myself in agreement with Mr. Arnold-
Worst - Mxy
Best - Iron Man (fists, baby!) and Thor.

Amen to that!

Who will be the Ultimate Mego?

I was just on ebay and noticed the little rascals dolls. I'm not familar with them but I'm guessing they are even smaller than the titans? Are they the same scale as 8 inch figures? (like if you stood one next to an 8 inch mego would they look like kid-size?)
I wonder if a Mxy head would fit on that body?

Rich

yeah little rascals are 5 inch.

[kryptosmaster]

I'm going to have to agree with those that say Mxy is the worst. He's just way too tall and out of proportion.

.

Even so, I still plan to get one only because I had him as a kid. Otherwise I wouldn't want him.
Brainiac or Luthor or even the Prankster or Toyman would've been way better choices for a Superman foe.

Green Arrow is the best IMO- I can go with Superman and Spiderman as well, but they are more simple in design. GA had all the cool accessories and the cool cuffed/colored hand combo that just makes him ROCK.

Best: I really love Iron Man. He might not be exactly right, with the eyes and all. But those inaccuracies make him even more appealing to me as a mego. Spiderman a close second.

Worst: I don't find Catwoman terribly interesting. I consider her a mego missed opportunity.

Actually IronMan is dead-on acurate! he had the nose from june 74 thru april of 76. Every Iron Man product made during that time had the nose and same general look as our beloved Mego!

Same scale. They look like kids. I always wanted to do a cool younger version of Robin with one.

If I'm not mistaken, Scott, founder of the Museum, did a very cool Mxy custom with one some years ago.

Have to agree the Mxyzptlk was a big miss. At the very least they should have put him on a teen titans body and even that wouldve been too big. and he wasnt even fat so what's up with that? I wonder what his head would look like on a TT body with a resized suit?? has anyone ever tried that?

yeah i have the suit looks kind of goofy but the head looks better if its the smirking one. either way its still rather lame...

Single best action figure ever made: Removable mask Batman. But I'm biased.

Best execution/closest likeness: Mr. Fantastic. He is nigh perfect. They couldn't possible improve anything except his head is a big large.
I'll put Thor, Green Arrow, Iron Man and Green Goblin in there as well. Green Arrow comes in the second tier because his boots should be flat topped, not pointed and the wrist cuffs look nothing like his gloves. I'd also put the Titans high up on the ladder.

Worst: Mxyzptlk but not just for poor execution. He was just a bad choice for Superman's villain. I'll also add the Gals. In particular WW and Catwoman. I love BG but I HATE that her mask is partially sculpted on her face. Supergirl is by far the best of the Gals.

I had to edit to include Cap. What a turd. He has charm and I love him but Mego really dropped the ball on him.

[kryptosmaster]

I was disappointed in the Thing when I was a kid though. (never had him)
I thought the bodysuit with printed 'rocks' looked bad.
I'm sure it was for cost-cutting reasons as most megos are basically just a head that can be put on nearly any body.
Wouldn't it have been cool, though had they took the time to make snap-on armor 'rocks', etc. maybe similar to the tin man or knights with a removable head so that he could've been Ben Grimm or the Thing??
