I would love to see Mego Corp. reclaim their once high standard. I have said it before, and I will say it again: 'Lego is to building, what Mego is to characters. Best two toys ever!
Since most of the parties involved with the launch of nuMEGO are likely well aware that there is a huge markets in customs, I’d love to see MEGO release some type of a DIY set featuring some different torsos (male, female, slim, average, athletic, etc.), accompanied by a variety of different arms, hands, legs, feet and possibly some generic (and unpainted) heads. Also included might be different accessories like belts, boots, gloves, etc and perhaps a couple of blank body suits. It seems like a set like this could appeal not only to collectors/customizers, but also to MEGO enthusiasts who are maybe trying to encourage their kids into getting into MEGO. What better action figure to own, after all, than one you’ve made yourself?
sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

Yeah,count me in for that.That is something I would like to see.

Heck, they could even call ‘em “Make Your Own MEGO” and package them in a workshop-type playset that purchasers could convert into whatever they want by means of sliding in their own cardboard inserts. If a set like that retailed for $50.00 to $100.00, I’d buy it.

Well, now that I know they're going to do I Dream of Jeannie, I guess it doesn't sound to absurd to ask for Bewitched: Samantha, Darrin, and Endora.
Never was a huge “I Dream of Jeannie” fan (unless, of course, it’s “Jeannie” Grey), but I’m a huge fan of Elizabeth Montgomery and would snap up “Bewitched” figures!

Seems like since generic lines are cheaper to do you get nicer figures (see Mego's original generics)
I hear you Mikey. Some Hospitaller and Templar Knights, pirates and vikings. Love to see that stuff. I think kids would be into them too. Some cowboys, Indians, Revolutionary War soldiers and French Musketeers. Figures like that would be too cool.
Addams Family and the Munsters! Yay! These characters (especially the Addams Family), I would imagine are a ceaseless source of fascination for all generations, particularly at Halloween time.
