    Here's one of my 2 Batmen getting acquainted. The 1 on the left is vintage Mego (except for Doc Mego belt) . On the right is the new Figures version.




    Does it like the new one has a thinner head maybe.

    Thanks for posting the photo

    i just got my two sets ,and they are fantastic ,they look and feel like the classics ,i havent seen reprodutions of megos this good since EMCE apes & star trek,to all who made these possible a big thank you .interesting to note ,the shipping box from figures says its box 1012 of 1250 ,which must mean that there are 3750 of each character in this assortment ,three of each figure in a case of 12.i know figures is selling cases of just batman or robin ,so who knows how many of them will be produced or if there will be reorders ,i think they will do quite well with these

    Paul will always be the God Father to the Mego universe. And the Mego-Musuem is the headquarters from which we all unite. The Super Collector (along with his trusty partner Snyderman) lead the ceremonies.

    Ya know now that we actully have a (reproduction) mego I would like to take the time to thank the man
    Who made it Possable.
    Paul Clark.
    I was watching the first mego meet from 04 and realized if he hadn't started way back
    With the repo parts, I had a set of the resin boots we wouldn't have the emce trek and
    Apes.
    The figures monsters, pirates, space 1999,western,robin hood , knights and now
    The wgsh.
    This really is a resurgence of one the best toy companies of all time and it wouldn't have happend if Paul hadn't taken a chance.
    Thank you Paul.

    I think these might be my favorite re-mego releases ever...seeing that Batman takes me right back to 1976. He just looks fantastic.

    Yeah, it makes me think of Batman as drawn by Neal Adams or Jim Aparo.

    Y'know, looking at them side by side like that, I have to say I like the darker blue better too!

    Today is my Birthday and I bought myself this gift.

    Yes, I've switched Batman & Robin's belts because that's the way that I had them as a kid.

    Yes, they are on the stiff side but that's better than being too loose and unable to stand.

    The bodies are MUCH, MUCH better than the FTC KISS bodies that I had to replace and that you can see in the background of these photos.
    No, they are not exactly like Mego's but far good enough for me.
    I give them an A- to B+.
