Nice to see them still in the game. Not too crazy about the card art...1) It's too busy 2) I realize they don't have the rights to the classic Mego monster art but the "redo"
really falls short IMO...

Thanks for pointing out the card design. I didn't notice how cluttered it looks, until I really looked at it. I've seen far better work all over this board.

I was comparing the picture of the Wolfman to the earlier CTVT Wolfman I have, and they look a bit different. The new one's fur look more orange, the stitching on the tunic looks diagonal whereas the old one was vertical, and the new one has black boots compared to black shoes. Also, the wrist peg appears to be flesh colored instead of GITD. I'm wondering if these are on new bodies?

[justzeg18]

Would I be off base in assuming that these new ones would be on the newer bodies they re-did for the KISS line?
seems like it would be irresponsible of them to have varying levels of body quality on the market at the same time.

The castle looks great. Is the artwork on the castle identical to the Mego version or is it entirely different?

[jimsmegos]

While I appreciate the resealable clamshell idea, but honestly there's is just too big.

[MIB41]

^^^ Yep. Looks like they're recycling the KISS clam shells. Just too big a space killer. It was great though to see the different colored Hulk bodies at a good price. Their making some great stuff here. The irony is they never seem to get the quality together when they sell license characters. Production problems always seem to besiege them.

[jimsmegos]

I do hope the best for these guys though, I really do. And the Hulk bodies are very promising to me because I may finally get to have some custom figures done of a character I created (and the masterful Tim Baron tweaked to perfection) years ago.

epic! Now where is that shark?

[Mego Magyar]

Is it just me or do Dracula's "pants" look like they still end short of reaching the crotch?

edit:
Whew, I just noticed my post count is getting close to 1000, I'm glad it didn't hit it with this post. I don't want that milestone to be a post about a crotch.

[HumanWolfman]

I just placed my order as well. I have a nice original mego version also. This is really cool news!!!

Cool, the wolfman is finally in stock. Its nice to see blacked hair Drac and Frankie to.
