I purchased all the EMCE Marvel ReMego but I wasn't sure about the second Deadpool set. Still of I would have picked up on I would have used that pirate outfit for a different character.

Archie Mego figures is tops on my non-super hero list of wants. It was exciting seeing what could have been and still might be if Mego tries again and Archie Comics makes a wiser decision.

And The Line Ranger is also a major Wish List line I would live to see, preferably in Mego style, but I’d take a 6-8” line too if it came with horses.

Agree w/Steve, the "pinkification" and glitterification of Halloween is definitely an abomination! I'm especially looking at you Michael's!

Great article and loved the Lone Ranger article.

Another great newsletter (and I don't just say that because Cimmerian September got a shout out in the forum spotlight). I love those EMCE Archie prototypes. I know a lot of Archie collectors who would have gone for them in a big way. A couple of creators known for their Archie work over the years-Craig Boldman and Jeff Shultz, are frequent guests in the local comic con circuit here in the Miami Valley/Dayton metro area, and there's a always a high turnout response at their tables when I see them at shows. There seems to be a high concentration of Archie collectors in this area for some reason. Those would have been must buys for a lot of those folks.

Really appreciate the feedback guys, it is totally a labour of love and unfortunately that takes a lot of time.

I'm a little earlier today, enjoy.

Another great Weekly!

That said, I wanted to be sure to acknowledge this sentiment at the beginning, "The past few days have been humbling, which is why I haven't felt up to making content, sorry."

I am sure we've all 'been there' before, in one way or another. When I have, there's nothing anyone else can say (or do) to make that better, especially anonymous internet people.

Nonetheless, I enjoy this Weekly as a brief way to forget about whatever else is going on in my own life, or is otherwise on my mind. And the above candid sentiment is an important reminder to me that this content is made by real people with their own personal challenges, for whom making it is likely, in some way, a 'labor of love', but also a 'commitment' and not the same breezy 'escape' it is for me to peruse casually.

Respect, empathy, and very much appreciated.

The Airgam stuff has always fascinated me.

great vintage photo and story Brian!

I'm smitten with the Airgem figures, too. It's a shame they're so scarce.

Awesome newsletter. Loved that pic of your dad with the parachutist. Lots of interesting bits and nostalgia in this week's newsletter.

Awww, I'm a pegwarmer. But only because Doc hates Mr. Mxyzptlk, and he wasn't produced.

I enjoyed the newsletter, it's a tonic.
