I don't recall meeting Lee at the few Meets I attended. I wish I had, he looks like he had joy. RIP.

And: LightWriters featuring... Flash Gordon. Flash Gordon!? Amongst the DC Trinity? WTH, I'm (a little) ticked off. Must find one of these and customize into Aquaman.

Otherwise, great newsletter--thank you!

I love that Astro Simians General Zol, would look good up against my mego Star Trek figures.
The shelf of CAH is awesome, nice collection.

Over the past several weeks, we have seen so many cool "what might have been" possibilities. The sculpts have all been fantastic. So I'm torn on this question... Would I rather have the figures Mego produced, or the figures Mego cancelled?

[PNGwynne]

^There are definitely some "might have beens" I agonize over.

I'd trade a lot of Mego releases for Virgil from Planet of the Apes but to each their own.

Damn, even though I do not like John Wayne, I would have bought plenty of them for the western outfit.

I got these two John Wayne customs back in 2009. The head sculpts came from Dave McCormick who I also think painted them.

At the time, I also wanted to make an army Wayne from the movie (Sands of Iwo Jima) but never got around to it, so I put together Cowboy Wayne and casual Wayne.

I have almost every movie he made, plus tv show special appearances, I’m only missing two of his movies, which were damaged because of chemicals which I guess ruined the film and the movies are now considered lost films, I believe the UCLA film archives has stills from those movies. (Adventures End) and (The Oregon Trail) both made in the 1930’s.

I understand family situation and am there myself.

I like the Swamp Thing Un-Men video.

Wonderful newsletter and I completely understand family situation, I’m going thru that with my Mom 89 (Alzheimer’s) wheelchair bound. Mom bought me my first ever mego figures and got me into Star Trek, watching reruns with her back in the 70’s. Thanks for the weekly newsletters and relax and enjoy your time off.
