Mego 50th Anniversary WGSH revealed

[Krypt0nite]

I wonder if they would release Myxyzptlk on a child body? Is that something people would want?

[PNGwynne]

I hope for that, too. There's room for plenty of Bronze-Age DC figures beside the originals.

I really like Mxy, though not so much his body type. I even accessorized my vintage one with lavender Ledy boots.

Many Mego fans, Doc included, disdain Mxy. But with a fat body tooled for Penguin, who knows?

I thought the Super-Foes were discussed on YT and Luthor was advocated instead.

Understood, and Mxyz was/is a definite dud, but I’d assumed they planned to re-release all the original DC WGSH.

No Mxyzptlk ?
Interesting.

So Joker, Riddler, Penguin, Wonder Woman, Batgirl, and Catwoman box tops can be seen in a post on Mego's Instagram feed. https://www.instagram.com/p/CiWTOgMs..._web_copy_link

i believe on FB that Joel said that is a mock up photo. so i take that to mean they just put whatever boxes they had to create the image. would be nice to see some of the female characters though, as long as they are on a new and improved body

I also noticed in that old school display case...REVERSE FLASH!

[Mego Newbie14]

Wow. I completely missed on the Supergirl. Nice catch, PNGwynne.

Flash looks great too. A real Classic Barry Allen sculpt. Also it looks like classic Metal snaps - No stupid Velcro.

[PNGwynne]

^And Supergirl.

I'm not sure Mego can do Isis as originally issued. DC originally had a cross-sell comic of the Filmation character, and much later a reimagined Isis character as an homage to the 70's version, but I don't know if they have licensing rights to the original.

So let me get this straight ... so far these are the characters that are coming out (or rumored to) for the 50th Anniversary releases:

Superman
Batman (w/removable cowl)
Robin (w/removable mask)
Captain Marvel (Shazam!)
Green Arrow
Supergirl (w/peace belt)
Green Lantern (a pretend "repro" in the classic style)
Flash (a pretend "repro" in the classic style)
Aquaman

Have I missed any? It seems like Wonder Woman, Batgirl, and Isis should be included eventually to make the set complete.

BBTS has added photos to some of them. Not sure if they are the final product or not.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Anyone know if Diamond is going to carry these?

[Mejo]

The new Green Arrow looks cool but I'm gonna wait for the anniversary one 'cos that's the costume I know best and the figure was probably the best of the DC Megos.
