Holcomb's book

[Gorn Captain]

I'm glad I got mine a month or two after its release. I bought it from a UK seller (new), and paid about $35 in total.
It's great that more fans are getting the chance to pick one up now, hopefully with decent shipping costs for us European collectors.

I can only dream to have this kind of quality book for the rest of the Mego Universe (ST, POTA,..) as well.

I got mine from Mile High Comics a few years ago at a clearance price, but it's nice that people can pick it up at a r was ok enable price now

I saw the image I believe you're referring to, and the relative scale (size of hands versus size of book) depicted is slightly misleading. The FTC Special Edition is the EXACT SAME Oversize dimensions as the original First Edition (9 ¼" x 12 ¼") and it is, too, is a HARD COVER. The Special Edition IS slightly thicker, as the Special Edition also features a 10-page addendum that highlights FTC's 8" Mego-style offerings.

Oh, so you think are some kind of authority on this?

I choose to believe whatever I want, or whatever I read on Facebook.

Now, for those of you who want the truth...

The new book is a MEGO book. Is is 1:1 scale with Mego figures. It is 1" x 1.3". It only has a couple pages (more of a board book, like toddlers read)

lol Brue.

I'm happy with the copies I own. One is pretty worn; the other is signed.

I have the first edition ,a very good book ,and since i dont want to wear it out ,i just ordered the new one from FTC ,I always hope ole Ben
would do another featuring star trek ,apes,oz and so ,perhaps with FTC helping out .also wouldnt mind seeing a book featuring all the new
retro megos from FTC ,Emce/diamond/Bif bang pow .and the inbetween years after mego and before the retros we had Wee-Win bible
figures,those war heros that freddy fx thing and a couple others .i would love that library .

I rather like that idea; I have the original, but certainly wouldn't mind adding some new volumes covering other areas. The original is still one of the best retrospectives yet produced on the Mego heroe, if not THE best.

I don't want to ruin any shockers

So all I will say is - there is some stuff in this book that are not in the original book

I never had the original - but man do I love this book! Ben hats off to you
the pictures are beyond amazing!

was going through my special edition , noticed that iron man carded is projected to perhaps go as high as 20.000 .which is 5.000 more
then the first edition projected .thats quite a jump in speculation from 2007 to 2015 .The FTC stuff featured is like a catalog of their
products .I would like FTC to produce a catalog of all their figues to date ,kinda like their old one from 2005.There is so much product being
produced that they should update a catalog every year with a check list ,you could check their web site i suppose,but its possible that
some of their pictured figures might be deleted from the site over time once they sell out .i would buy a check list catalog to keep an eye
on all their figures.
