          Glad as always to see Cotswold featured, with the new Geyperman Shaolin figure.

          I should have mine in hand withing a week--I order direct from Hobbycrash. Their repro muscle-body figures are fantastic, far sturdier than Falcon's.

          I'm making a custom Dr. Drago, so the saffron gi may be up for grabs.


          The Kingdom Comes figure is intriguing, though the head scale is scary.

          Gargon accessories? Take my money!
          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.

            So are the Geyperman Shaolin are 12 inches tall to fit in with the classic G.I. Joes?

              I wouldn't fret too much about that, it's pre production combined with a weird angle. I don't want to digitally alter the photos but this one I was tempted.

                Yes, in the late-run muscle-body style.

                  Has Mego given any indication if they are going to do more Kingdom Come figures than Superman, or is Supes just an easy one off variant because it's just a different costume and slight repaint on an existing figure Like Red Son and the Big Lots Supes?

                    I'm certainly not going to apologize for Mego's recycling or oddities of design, both are very apparent in the 50th line. But the largish KC Superman proto head appears to me to be just that, not a repaint of Red Son, which I have in hand.

                      Cool. I don't mind the recycling at all, I just would really like to see some of the other characters from Kingdom Come, I am just not sure how realistic it is to expect them though rather than just the Supes figure.

                                Well I bought that postcard. I had no idea they did this during the Hulk TV series.

                                Another DC Comics Scarecrow and the face just doesn't look right.

                                Now growing up I remember reading Batman comic books and the cartoons with Scarecrow and then shopping with Mom at K-Mart I saw the WOZ Scarecrow and talked he into letting me pick him up for my Mego collection. As a kids, my brother and I had no problem using the other Mego/Knock-off Megos as characters in our DC/Marvel world. I just wish we had taken pictures of our playroom.
