      ALRIGHT!!!! Looks like they were maybe thinking the Atom and decided to offer other colors?
      (although I think the blue is a little bright).

      Well no more buying OEM Cap America heads for me.....!
      Now if they would just make full cowl ( no mouth) heads...

        These would be cool for generic customs, match the jumpsuit, gloves, boots and capes, with the head and give them
        colorful names, like Blue Hornet, the Cardinal, Green Shamrock, etc etc.

          Cool! I asked for generic super hero heads a long time ago when placing an order (as well as I'm sure other have), so its great to see them.

            Is that the old Castaway generic super hero head?

            Here is the Castaway head on a Guardian custom I did:

              They look very similar but Castaway's is superior.

                    Or someone sold those molds. Were the head molds included in the theft of the body molds? I don't remember.

                      That's a different head. Note the ears and eyes are different. The shape of the head and positioning of the cheeks are completely different. And the eye cut outs on the mask are wider at the base of the nose. I think any generic mask on a head will share similar traits to some degree, but I believe it's safe to say this is an original sculpt and not a recasting. I DO think this is likely a preview of the Atom's head though. I'll be pleased to see him finally make the official shelf of Megos!

                        I'd be curious to hear everyone's ideas on possible characters for these guys.

                          You can finally do those rainbow Batmen!

                          Actually, I think the ultimate Rainbow Batman pack would be one of their special carrying cases with Bruce Wayne in the regular RC Batman costume, and then fill in the other slots with hangers with the different colored RC Batman costumes. Cowls, boots and gloves in the accessory bin. That would actually be pretty cool.

                              I have started a thread in Customs for the newsletter for everyone's ideas on how to use these.
