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

[clemso]

Hello fellow Mego Enthusiasts,

Just a note to let everyone know that the mold maker has the materials to make a silicone mold of my original Mego Great White Shark and he will be setting it up to mold just after the holidays. He will fix any melt marks (there are a few on my original) as well as remove the Mego Corp. logo and year of original production and replace it with a new logo and 2011 as the year of reproduction.

From this master copy he will create a new silicone mold for production of the repros. This way it will look as perfect as the originals (no more melt marks) along with identification that will clearly distinguish it as a repro so that no one will ever be able to pass it off as an original Mego product.

Just wanted to keep everyone updated. It may be a slow process but the payoff will be HUGE and we hope to pleasantly surprise Mego collectors of high quality repro Mego products. Stay tuned!

Hey that's great news, can't wait to see any new progress pics.

Awesome!! Can't wait to see how he comes out! If you find yourself a bit low on cash maybe consider a Pre order payment

(Not too much because we are all having the same problem!!)

Thanks for the update.

[reevefan78]

Sorry for the lack of updates these days. This project is still very much "a go" just a little slow due to the holidays and the fact that money is a bit tight this month.....doesn't leave much room for purchasing mold making materials at the moment but that will change soon. Thanks in advance to everyone for hanging in there and being patient with me in the interim. More to follow in the near future.

i would like one, if it is cost wise afordible, pls let me know when you have more details. thank you.

[reevefan78]

I think you should put Reevefan2010.

Good suggestion. I'll run that by my mold maker friend and see what he thinks.

Sorry for the temporary downtime here folks....busy time for me (preparing for 2 art shows from now till February with the gallery that reps me) and my friend who's making the mold. But rest assured this project is still "a go" and will resume as planned shortly. Stay tuned.

P.S. Hope everyone here in the states has a Happy and safe Thanksgiving!

Yeah, that's what I thought.

What about the Vlasic Pickle Stork? I always though that him and Charlie Tuna would be playing chess in the park together and sipping brandy...

Is the word "repro" really necessary with another company name and the year 2010?

I suppose not.

Thanks everyone......these are great suggestions all of them. We'll probably go with a company name and year of production and of course remove the Mego Corp. name and add the word "repro". I appreciate all of the helpful advice.

[Mikey]

I'd say put you own name on the bottom of it.

Be proud of making the most difficult Mego reproduction ever.
