    Well, as stated elsewhere, Paul Clarke decided we don't need that, and apparently he makes the decisions at Mego somehow.

    I'll be honest, I've not liked the direction of Modern Mego for quite some time. This Superman is the only figure I've wanted in ages, and my ability to give a damn diminishes with each passing day.

    They don't seem to care much ablut the Monster fans that pretty much resurrected the company, they certainly don't care about Tokusatsu fans, and only barely care about Star Trek fans.

    They wanted those Superhero licenses, and now that they have them, they don't care much about anything else.

      Somebody has to decide what gets made and what doesn’t. Paul was hired by Mego to make those decisions. There’s no somehow about it, it’s his job.

          A few of these have shown up on eBay as pre-orders, shipping from New Jersey. Maybe this indicates they are about to hit soon…

              I'm not gonna apologize for my opinion, but I am gonna apologize for making it everybody else's problem.

              And especially to the OP. I'm sorry, didn't mean to hijack your thread.

              I put aside most of my grudges, but this one is personal. But it's between myself and Paul. Sorry for involving others.

                The one reason I may get these is because according to Dr. Mego they have fixed the knee issue on these.

                  Too bad they did'nt fix the knees on all of the 50 th anniv figures. I think that I am losing interst in new megos ,and have sold most of mine already. I am only keeping 50 th anniv figures ,and Classic Monsters.
                  I will get the 50 th anniv Supergals and Marvel classic 50 th ,but not much else

                    That's where I am. I'll be keeping my Ultras, and my Monsters, but kind of over it.

                    I just have no interest in seeing the Superhero figures rehashed yet again. Sure, getting Marvel is cool, but it feels like it's too late.

                      Dr. Mego posted that they should be hitting shops this weekend and will be at the front of the store.

                        Quote from Doc Mego "Mego just got word from Big Lots that the figures are going to be arriving this weekend or next week at the stores and they will be placed in the front of the store.
                        Go check out your Big Lots stores and report what you find."

                          We'll see. I'm skeptical.

                                I'll check tomorrow-there's a Big Lots on the same road as the hall where a small comic con I am attending is on.
