    Unleashing the Mantooth



    It is with great pride that I open up the ordering for the Brick Mantooth doll.

    Some important information:
    • This is just for Brick, it does not include the Mego Museum Supercollector outfit, those will be back in stock in mid August at the same URL. (The mini museums are a pain to make)
    • This is the first batch, if I sell out, it does not mean I am out of the figure, just out of assembled sets. Every one will get one, the boxes in my garage assure you.
    • These are coming from Canada and take anywhere from 5 to 10 business days, Canada Post doesn't work weekends either.
    • The doll comes as shown, you may or may not have to dress him yourself. This Depends on whether your set was assembled by Gallant (my friend, who lovingly dressed each one) or Goofus (obviously me, who was getting tired and hungry by this point).

    It doesn't have to end there....

    Once you get the doll, it doesn't have to end with you placing it on your desk. You've just opened up a world of opportunity in the world of Mego customizing. There are literally thousands of ways you can now personalize Brick. Here are a few online retailers that sell clothing and other bibs and bobs to make Mantooth completely yours:

    Dr.Mego.com- We wouldn't have this figure without Dr Mego and he makes a lot of cool stuff.
    Castaway toys- Boots, belts, jumpsuits, even vintage Action Jackson sets that will fit Brick.
    Classic Tv Toys- Lots of custom fodder including Brady bunch clothes

    If you still can't quite find that special outfit, check out the Megomuseum forums as there are several Mego scale tailors for hire.

    More Mantooth Coming Soon:

    As with any toy line, there will be lots of fun extras coming down the pike




    I want this to be interactive, so if you buy a Brick and alter it in any way (like Brick 5 here) please send me some shots. Take him on a trip? I wanna see! Did you puppy eat him? Send it down (but you're a very bad boy...oh I can't stay mad at you...)

    Lastly, Thanks to:

    I know I'm rambling but thanks and props have to go to the people who made this happen:
    Scott Sansom (Sculptor), Scott Adams (Art and Design), Steve Stolk (Printing), Paul "Dr Mego" Clarke (our man in China), Steve Moore (Outfit prototyping), Ed Leung (doll dresserer), my wonderful wife and children who seem to ignore that their father is insane.

    And many thanks to you, the reader, for supporting or at least enjoying this mad idea that clearly has gone too far.

    Click here to get a little Mantooth in your life.

          The Brick 5 costume is very cool. Where did that come from? Is that the new Logan's Run costume? What is the inside scoop?

            The Brick 5 costume was just something I had in my parts box.

              I think the only Brady Bunch figures CTVT is selling right now are the girls.

                Ah, I see. Looks like you have some vintage Logan's Run figures? That gun must be custom made?

                The Brick 5 costume looks awesome - straight out of the 70s!

                I really like the Brick Mantooth head with that costume. His hair and sideburns are perfect. The Brick Mantooth head looks better than the original actor's head, in my opinion.

                      Any plans for a female counterpart, perhaps a Brickette Womantooth figure?

                        Just use Dinah Mite. I'm sure she's tired of that Superman wannabe Don by now.

                          I think Brick and The Most Interesting Man In The World are going to come to blows.

                            Thanks, it's not based on the catalog model but on Scott's character designs. We've actually got a back story going.

                            Initially, we had planned to release some animated Super Collector shorts on the web but it was hard to find the time to do everything. Brick is the Super Collector's alter ego, he's a time traveller from the future.

                            We have some adventures of Brick and the Super Collector coming in comic form, I'm very happy to say.

                              I doubt it. Brick is 100% into the ladies.
