Are we just going to keep getting random properties, or is there actually a plan to build sets/teams, etc.? So far, Trek seems to be a trend. Monsters. Musicians. But to what end?

        Also, I HATE the 2-pack packaging. Who came up with that? It is so cumbersome that if you want to keep them in box, it would quickly become impossible for space reasons. The packaging also seems flimsy, so it gets damaged quickly in stores.

        I'm excited to see Gorn, Bewitched, and Frankenstein. Dorothy looks really nice, too. Not sure if we needed more KISS, and the Wicked Witch looks "meh". Also lame that Toto and basket are not included. If they don't come with Dorothy in that unnecessarily large package, then how would you ever get them?
        I could swear that ai saw a basket and Toto in the Dorthy/Witch set.

        By the way, I certainly hope that you’re not here to mainly complain.

          The double box of Oz does have some type of Toto in the basket:

          I will get Bewitched but I will have to pass on Full House (at least till the get reduced).

            Is this a one off or is there more coming?

                Frankie and Samantha look great!

                Full House?... oh HECKS NO! Figures look fine, but I hate that show. My daughter's loved it though (along with my one daughter watching Fuller House). Are they regular female bodies? They could be on smaller bodies, but I feel like there is only one Mego female body right now?

                I think I want more of Wave 2 than I've purchased of Wave 1.

                    So the "Chaney" head is a second generation EMCE Glenn Strange head with the bolts cut off. Looks to be allot of EMCE product filling the holes where they didn't have time to make all of these figures for production. Of course creating 60 characters in four months is a very tight window. Sometimes I guess you need to use whatever is available.

                      Which may count for the refrain, or lack, of seeing any better pics on him... until now.

                        Disappointed in the new Frankenstein. I guess I was expecting a fully licensed version which improved on the EMCE release.
                        They obviously removed the neck electrodes to avoid the Universal licensing, which brings it down from the EMCE version IMO.
                        I do like the color cast head and hands, but if they weren't going to do a proper Universal version I'd have preferred a black suit also. I may still try to find one, but he'll be getting proper electrodes if I do.
                        I still like my customized EMCE the best.

                          I like the Frankenstein. He reminds me of the Creeper or whoever it was on Scooby Doo.

                            So...the Frankenstein isn't licensed from Universal? This really is like Mego all over again!

                              For me, the attention to the fabrics is letting me down most of all. The EMCE's were, IMO, better made, especially the costumes.
                              I know, a $15 Mego is cheap, I'm just talking about the finished end product and how it looks.

                                I may be wrong, but it looks to me like the basket with Toto is part of the illustrated backdrop, and not an actual accessory.
