            do you have your info on the box by the Mego symbol? I know you have your own stamp on the shark itself.

              If we put anything on the box to denote it as a repro (although I would think it would be easy enough to tell since I've never seen or heard of anyone that had a mint box) but in case any of you collectors out there are worried I can have Greg put my info on the very bottom of the box to denote it as a repro......BUT I WILL NOT TAMPER WITH THE ORIGINAL MEGO LOGO OR ANY INFORMATION ON THE BOX......IT IS PERFECT AS IS AND I WANT IT TO BE A FAITHFUL REPRO BOX. So let me know guys if you want me to put "reevefan78 © 2011".

              More to follow soon.....stay tuned!

                I would love for you to notate all your hard work on the box somewhere. Not only to differentiate the box from an original, but because you should have your mark on your work.

                  Someday I'd like to see a picture of a person holding the box.

                  I bet it's a lot bigger than most people (who've never seen one in real life) think

                    rche,

                    Yeah......we're definitely considering that......it's a good idea actually. Thanks for the suggestion.....I'll run it by my "cronies in crime" and see what they think. More to follow soon.....stay tuned.

                      I'll see if I can get Geoffdude to help out with that....if not I'll get Greg to take a pic once he's got the box finished, constructed and assembled. More to follow soon.....stay tuned.

                        could always photo one in front of a jar of mayonnaise if'n geoffdude is camera shy.

                          "Mayonnaise"?........why not a can of Starkist Tuna (or any brand for that matter).......I would think "Aquashark" would go for a can of tuna over mayonnaise.....yes? LOL

                            Is it necessary for such a denote? Isn't this shark being offered with a remego Aquaman which would be obvious this piece is a repro?

                              ^^^^ Couldn't some nefarious scalper type just drop a real Mego Aquaman in there and attempt to pass it off as the real deal?

                                ^^^ True, but with a flawless, minty, rich in color box? That should be enough of a warning
