    That's classic! Based on the bluing around his eyebrows and on his nose, it looks like Drac has actually been wearing the cowl for awhile.

    What's the deal with the cowboy thermos? Is that supposed to sweeten the pot?

      I was wondering about that too

      Maybe Mego was just that ahead of its time and was working on a "Red Rain" prototype.

            He's selling this really neat Trek gum card set:

            My question, is that gum still good?

            Because if I buy it...I'll chew that gum, lol.

                  I also messaged them last night. I noticed a little while ago that they've pulled the auction.

                    Was they type of gum ever good? I always thought you were better off chewing one of the traiding cards, than that nasty stale gum


                    Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

                        A good idea George, wish I had thought to do that.

                        I've dealt with this seller once I think, it was a really good experience and one I'd happily repeat. They definitely know their stuff, so I'd chalk this up to a brainfart.

                          That seller has a poor reputation in the Hot Wheels redline community, allegations of retouched cars, misleading auction titles etc, but it hasn't stopped people from bidding on their stuff.

                          They seem to straddle that blurry line between fraudulent and incompetent when it comes to describing their auction stock.

                            I wonder if the head was a joke - an early custom! - on the part of the designer they got it from. A Batman who was really part bat! It would be neat if that were the story behind it.
