    Portrait of the Mego Penguin done in Magna Doodle



    This portrait of the Mego Penguin figure was done by World's Greatest Toys scribe Ben Holcomb on a Magna Doodle. There is no more fitting canvas for a Mego product than on another Mego product.







    Great OA! Paul made this neat Guardian figure from the Green Lantern, check out all the new homemade heroes in the Finished Custom Section of the Museum forums.
    Check out the Mego Museum Blog tomorrow for a very rare, never before seen display piece from the 1980 Mego Toy Fair Show Room.

    THAT, is really SWEET !!!!!!

    I never had or played with a Magna-doodle

    All I remember was their TV commercial theme song jingle.

    Is it like an Etch-a-Sketch ?

      Ben did others like Iron Man and Robin that were real sweet but I didn't take pictures, I was feeling no pain by this point.

        That is cool. I'd not have enough patience to do something like that.

                Did Ben do this while suffering from a similar "distraction"?

                              Most of the Doodles were pretty awful; there MAY have been some drinking involved.

                              I kind of dig the Mego Green Arrow sketch, though, my first drunken sketch of the night:
