Met a real life Mego yesterday!

[clemso]

Not the best pic but met Louise Jameson yesterday who played Leela in Doctor Who at Birmingham Comic Con. Have you met a real life Mego? Which one and post pic or it didn't happen

[palitoy]

I can't see the pic. I got Mark Lenard to sign a carded Urko and Romulan once. He was not happy about the Romulan, at all.

As in unhappy to be associated with the character, or unhappy because he never signed off on the use of his likeness?

This one. I believe his exact words were "what is this? I never saw this?" followed by a disappointed frown. Then he saw Urko.

Great pic Clem, did you tell her you've been on Who?

[clemso]

No, didn't have time to chat, she was rushing out, so felt a pic was pushing it.

Nice pic! Two Who alums!

Let's see...I guess the only actor I've met who had a specific Mego made after them was William Shatner. I've met actors who have had their characters made into figures during their "run" (or initial re-runs), but not based on their likeness, in particular; like Adam West, Frank Gorshin and Jackson Bostwick.

On one of the Doctor Who DVD's there's an Easter Egg video where Louise talks about her Mego doll. She joked that they came and measured every part of her but the doll somehow ended up with a much larger chest than she has and looked more like Barbie.

Lol, is that on youtube anywhere. Would love to watch that.

OK, My scanner's on the fritz, and this was when I used FILM and not a digital camera, so it does count! I've met The surviving cast of '66 Batman: Adam West, Burt Ward, Yvonne Craig, Julie Newmar, and Lee Meriweather at Wondercon.

There are so many Megos played by actors out there. Somebody has to have bump into one Starsky & Hutch, Dukes of Hazard, Charlies Angels, Cher, Waltons, WOZ and many more?

Burt Ward when I was a kid at a car show in Peoria. Batmobile there and Ward in costume signing autographs.
