Early Look: Mego Captain Pike

[ODBJBG]

The recent flux in head sizes is a factory situation that has been addressed on this end of things. A lot of work has been done in advance so it will take a bit of time before changes are seen at retail.

This is good to hear. Hope it comes to fruition in a big way. It's frustrating how much that has plagued the 8 inch format in recent years. Hopefully they get it all squared away! Great news!

Speaking of large heads, and I know this is an FTC question more so than a Mego one, but does anyone know if the Steve Trevor head on the FTC figure is oversized or is it in scale? I am thinking about purchasing just the head for a custom but don't want to if it's going to be too big for the body.

if you look at the side view its really flat on the back. that put me off using it.

It's so easy to shrink heads with naphtha, I've stopped being too concerned about scale. I think this looks great.

I have no interest in the show but that is a nice looking figure and I will get one.

Nice sculpt, but I also thought the head looked too big. I hate to nitpick, but they should know better by now.

[Barnabas Collins]

Yeah, head too big, but I'll likely get it. Hope they do Mr. Spock (Ethan Peck), too.

Amoktime had a picture of Jeffery Hunter next to the Pike picture. I ordered it thinking I was getting that version.
That is the 2nd time they did that. The also had a picture of Vincent Price for the Masque of the Red Death, which, was Lon Chaney Sr.
The Emce Pike also had a big head. Are they trying to tell us something?
For $12 or whatever I won't complain, unless, it is about Amoktime...."Amok" is right.
