Hello Boys and Girls,
Well, we are 4 months past MM2018 and my focus usually starts to gear towards next years exclusive figure about this time. MM2019 will be our 15th get together (not counting Mego Con in '04). In that time we've done 16 different characters. And frankly, I've kinda run out of ideas. So I thought I'd try something different for next year and ask the members here....
"What do you think would be a good exclusive for next years Meet?"
So here's the deal. Post what you think would make a good exclusive for MM2019. Around Christmas I'll narrow it down to 3-4 choices and pick one. The contest part is that the person's suggestion I choose will receive one of the custom exclusive figures in the package for FREE. You will also get credit on the package.
Some things to keep in mind when making your choice:
1. It has to be cost effective to make. Heads, suits, belts, boots, shoes, bodies, accessories and packaging cost money, wheither they are cast and molded, screen or 3D printed or just bought directly from Doc Mego or FTC. I don't get anything for free. I can't be spending a fortune to buy supplies.
2. It should be a popular character every one knows. It really can't be a character only 3 people have heard of. Remember, I need these to sell out.
3. It can be from any era. This covers cartoons, comics, movies, toys, whatever. Just something you think would look cool in the 8" Mego format.
4. Only 10-12 will be made. I'll change something up about it for the customs auction like always.
5. Think about how it would be made. Can it be made? Can a certain piece for it be made? Keep in mind I make them to look like Mego made them. They don't need to be Flatt or BK detailed.
6. And again, I need these to sell out. The basis for a good exclusive is I don't bring any back from Mego Meet.
So, think about it and post away. If you have questions post those as well and I'll answer them.
Thanks all for looking.
