Resurection thread !!!

I just got back into collecting mego figures after a 20 year break and never thought that I would find a FTC Conan at a reasonable price but just bought the entire (3 figures) Conan series new in package !

I am on a high !

I got such a good deal that I decided to order the Disney 4 pack today. Got a decent price also.

Happy to get back into collecting. this is expensive but fun... lol

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I just now got around to getting a Conan (popped up on Amazon) and I really like figure and packaging. To me, it's the best complete figure I have seen from FTC.

EE finally shipped my Conan figures out and I received them this week too.

Conan is Conan; FTC id a good job in reproducing him.

I think Kull and Solomon Kane came out really well. So well that I would have liked to have seen a new Conan (in addition to the repro) made with a new head sculpt that matched the detail of the other two figures.

If the license cost enough, maybe we will see that figure in the future.

Maybe he's angry because of the haircut?

HA! That'd do it

Got my Conan in today and I really like him. Short comings being the short bangs and the gap between the neck and the body but not a deal breaker. Plus I am really impressed with the weight and quality of the body. And also how the skin tones match. Not terribly interested in the other two characters from the R.E. Howard collection but Conan is for me a must and I'm really glad I got him... Mind you I'm not so much a huge Conan fan as I am a fan of action figures that look ****ed off. Problem is, with the scale and the silly hair cut I just can't take his anger seriously.

Helpful review--thanks, Scott.

As with some other FTC heads, it's an embarrassment about the head scale--especially since the sculpt & rooting on Kane looks excellent.

It is excellent; the hair is gathered a bit in the back on mine rather than just all hanging down loose. I need to look closer, but it looked almost like a sort of pony tail rather than just a clumping of hair. It's nice and even coverage, as well, no bald spots or comb over needed anywhere. And the face is so expressive, the features nice and sharp. The folks they have sculpting the heads are doing a stellar job, really; I have no complaints in that department (especially after seeing the Ra's head taken straight out of a Neal Adams panel). It stands up well against the best of the old Mego heads, if only it was the right size.

That still might work.The Conan will be on the new Kaustic heroic body. Maybe one of the smaller 12s would work,I have tons of Dragon,bbi.or 21st C . No mego flash bodys.....that might be harder. Have any of you guys tried shrinking these new FTC heads? Kulls head also looks big..so maybe I could do something with him too.

[scott metzger]

That Kane head ooks big enough for a 12in doll. I thought this when I first saw the prototype shots. If it is I might have to buy it and do a custon to go with my 12in Conan. Also do you guys think we can do a shrink on one of these heads?

It might be a little small for a full 12" figure. Haven't dug one out, but I think it's basically scaled in line with a 9.5" Mego Flash Gordon/Max FX body.

I am absolutely going to have to get that Conan asap. The others too,but they'll have to wait until i can get caught up on the other ReMegos I've missed out on the last 3 months.
