Any interest in a repro Aquaman vs The Great White Shark set?

Pic of the day - 'Aquashark'.....shock! surprise!

Here's another one for the good folks here on the Mego Museum. Just trying to spread out the pics just a little to give folks something to look forward to on a regular basis....it's like having Christmas more than once a year. :-)

Stay tuned.....more to follow soon.

Oh and don't worry.....our 'Aquashark' does not have an addiction to 'nose candy'.....that white stuff on his nose is not powder....it's tiny air bubbles that are filled in and ready for another priming, LOL.

I can tell you it will definitely be under $1000.....

Okay seriously though......we are working on that now but we'll know for sure once the production molds and first production casts are pulled. We would not want to low ball ourselves (thereby potentially upsetting and/or turning off potential buyers) nor give an inflated price quote before we have a better idea of what will be involved regarding materials and time. My mold maker will make those assessments once production begins. Sorry.....I'm not trying to be evasive about it, we just don't want to turn anyone off by undercutting ourselves with a low ball initial quote then coming back with a higher more accurate one once productions in under way to cover our investment in time and materials. I hope you will understand. Just start savin' your pennies now....'k?

please can you give us just a price idea. so something to let me/us know if I can afford it.

Looking really good. I'm excited to see the final product. Excellent work. One question - Will the upper jaw be able to move up and down or will it be held in one position?

The upper jaw will be moveable....up and down just like the original.....afterall Aquashark's gotta eat, LOL. More to follow soon......stay tuned.

A Huge Thanks To My Team For Their Efforts On 'project Aquashark'!!!

Never thought I'd ever see a repro shark even tho several people have talked about doing it. And then you came along and damn, that shark looks cool

While it may have been my 'brain child' to reproduce my original Mego 'Aquashark' after years of trying to figure out how to do it to my perfectionist standards I really have to tip my hat to my mold maker and my graphic designer buddies for helping to realize my dream (finally) of "PROJECT AQUASHARK'.

One of my students told me that his father used to tell him that "While I may not be a genius, I'm smart enough to know who's smarter than I am"......and that's what I finally had to realize if I wanted to get this project done within the next 10 years. I know a lot about a lot of different things and I've never been one to back down from a challenge and I'm an 'information hog' (in other words....I love learnin' new stuffs, LOL).....guess that comes from my background as an educator. But I quickly realized that this project was a bit over my head to do all by myself without outsourcing to the right experts....and meeting 'dengar' and 'quintjawsman' has made all the difference (not to mention 'geoffdude' for his generosity in scanning and photographing his original box set without which the repro box would not have turned out as well....the scans were AMAZING and clear).

These guys are AWESOME in every sense of the word and talented as all get out! It has been fun throwing around ideas with these guys and acting as sort of an art director (although there's not much to direct since we all pretty much see eye to eye on this project and how it has come to fruition). All I do is let them know what I would like to see as a final product and then set'em loose and they go work their magic and come back and say, 'how's this?' and my jaw hits the floor from the awesomeness they are able to create. It has been a wonderful collaborative effort so far and I hope to do more such projects with these guys......they are THE FINEST TEAM I've ever had the pleasure of working with. So hat's off to you 'dengar' and 'quintjawsman' (and 'geoffdude')! You guys are 'FIN-TASTIC'!!! Thanks for making a lot of us grown 'children' VERY, VERY HAPPY!


Ah heck, you guys have been so nice and supportive that I just can't hold out in showing another pic of 'Aquashark' in it's current state.....so here ya go guys and gals and thanks again for all 'the love'!
