Ok, here I go with another one of my stupid ideas, which will probably get ignored like a lot of the stuff I post. We have the AJ body type 0, T1, T2, Type S, Ftc, and Doc bodies. Not counting the bodies made by the customizers. Anyway, do we call the new neck post one T18? Cause Mego returned in 2018. I dont know, its most likely more of my insanity showing.

I've been struggling with what to call them. I used "2018 Mego body" but that's a bit long. -
I'm thinking "T3."WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

T3 reminds of the type3 toys guy, John I believe. I figured its a new century, go with T18. But T3 works too.Comment

If any of the Mego Insiders get a chance to do a nice interview with Doc, I'd love to hear about the development of the new body and the idea behind the changes to the original Mego design, specifically the neck/torso design and the change to theneck plug on the male figures.Comment

By the way, Norm is on a fat body. I'm glad its not just padding. So they made a new male, female and fat body so far.Comment

type -? .curiously there have been many variations of the mego body .if you stick with just Mego in name then type-3 would be fine,however if you factor in emce bodies then you have to say perhaps -type -5 or 6 .
if you count swivel arms ,screw backs ,and bbp figures,some of which used differant knee pins ,and then if you count s-bodies ,castaway,zica,ftc, etc .it can be confusing ,and then factor in the chick bodies variations.
and muscle body variations,then fats,and skins . ...oh what the ... ?Comment

How about the M2.0 or just M2? Since it's Mego 2.0 body. M, for Mego, and 2, because it's the second coming of Mego.Comment

This is where I was at when I said T18. Type 0,1 & 2 were all based on the same body. This has a new torso/head thats why I was not really leaning toward T3. This new one is way different so it needs a new designation.Comment

NuMego is not as drastic as change from T2 as T1 was into T2.
So if the new design isn't T3 out of respect, then...T2K? To signify "Type 2000's", but it also looks like a phonetic play on "tweak" which is what the design actually is; a tweak of the T2 neckplug and torso.
I would add that when Doc does a total overhaul - bandless, swivel joints, etc...that should be renamed totally as Msomething.Last edited by hedrap; Jul 31, '18, 2:28 PM.Comment
