      I'm really, really looking forward to this line. Robin looks terrific, and FTC actually made me care about Gleek.

      Can't wait to see how Superman and Wonder Woman turn out (I'm on the sculpted hair team. Rooted hair is OK, but it always seems the heads are kind of huge on the bodies. Sculpting seems to be the best way to truly capture Toth's WW).

      Well played, FTC, well played.
      "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."

        I thought the same thing, but was kind of waiting to see. If it is slightly too big, it must not be by much since I can't tell for sure. It's not a case of obviously much too big like before. Everything else looks great, the sculpt is good, the costume looks good. I hope the body is improved some. If the head is just a slight out of proportion it's not enough to really bother me.

        It also could be a case of being so used to and in love with the original Megos that anything slightly different would look off. Kind of like if a band rerecords one of your favorite band's songs, no matter how good of a job they do it will always sound a little wrong just because you are used to the original.

          Wow, great reveal! Gleek looks fantastic and I love they went with cloth clothing for the little guy. Robin' face is perfect and I love there is no smile. Small, very small gripe is I would like some texture in Robin' hair.

            They both look great. And the fact that they went with a cloth outfit for Gleek is quite impressive.

              Hopefully they make Green Arrow from his one and only appearance!

                  Very cool news. I've thought about it a little, and how I'd release the waves. For the most part I'd keep the natural pairing people would expect, but I would try to team some of the less popular pairings with the more popular ones. I would make one exception to this to accommodate the greater number of villains, and that might be how I'd open the series.

                  Superman/Bizarro, Braniac, Lex Luthor
                  Batman/The Riddler Apache/Chief Giganta
                  Robin/The Scarecrow Black Vulcan/Solomon Grundy
                  Wonder Woman/Cheetah Hawkman/Gorilla Grodd
                  Aquaman/Black Manta Samurai/Toyman
                  The Flash/Captain Cold Green Lantern/Sinestro

                  I'd mix these two waves of three into the mix at different times

                  3 pack Zan Jayna Gleek
                  3 pack Wendy Marvin Wonderdog

                  Then you could think about the secondary and limited appearance characters.

                    Yeah, I'm taking the same optimism...I'll wait until I see a full body shot before I judge.

                      I hope they are able to match the brightness of the colors from the show. Robin's "greens" look awfully dull.

                      The beauty of the show was how vibrant the colors were (even on the villains) and how visually stimulating everything was.

                            Actually, the Robin colors are correct for the model sheets. Robin's greens were more muted, where Aquaman had deeper greens. See below.

                              Nof if they use a hair net. I have a miniature Barbie styling head for my dolls w/ a flip do and it rattles around in my box of doll stuff. I've never removed the hair net, and it looks fine. (and it's a little bigger that an action figure).

                                I like these prototypes very much.

                                Regarding Wonder Woman & Giganta, even Apache Chief, I'd like sculpted hair. I like Dr. Girlfriend.

                                We have/will have other versions with rooted hair.
                                WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.
