Hey Dave, early birds been shipped yet?

To quote Ronnie Milsap...

Any day now I will hear you say goodbye my love and you'll be on your way...

It's gonna be tight on the schedule... as my Mentor Dr. Marty Wiseman would say: "Tighter than a gnat's arse on a lemon wedge". But to give credit our Chinese connection has been very good with the communication lately. They had a misfire on a body part (didn't say which one) but they went ahead and made all the rest while the mold was fixed , so we shouldn't have lost any appreciable time. To make up for the delay, they made an extra boot mold for the hero style boots for us so the top will be molded ("v" style) and not just cut... so we know they really want to help us put out the best figure we can, and that's pretty exciting!

I'll keep you guys up on the latest when I can...

Thanks again for the interest and support!

-Dave

Thanks for the updates!

Thank us?! Are you kidding me, you are as modest as your are talented dude... you are not only a great artist, but a great guy and we are PROUD to be able have your work associated with our little ventures... you sir ROCK!

I'm going to make the other guys puke by continuing the mutual love fest here, but I thank you for the kind words. The little I've done can't compare to the time and effort you and Jason have put into these figures. The Mego community, and action figure enthusiasts in general are going to reap the rewards of those efforts. It's fantastic stuff!!!

This ad will be running in Moonstone's Phantom comic book. Be on the look out for it!

And the approved pencil and ink artwork for the front of the Phantom package. I'm working on the colors right now:

The Phantom, is all approved via King Features and awaiting only factory samples with legals to have KFS final blessing. We hope to have these more quickly than the CA stuff, but it will follow the CA for sure. The CA Phantom stuff will follow the stand alone Phantom figures. That's the chronological order, but I wouldn't dare fix dates to it yet, China is dicier than ever!

We have a small order of hero boots, gauntlets and gloves on the way.... along with a small number of bodies (these are due to ship from China very soon AKA any day!). This is just for the customizers here, we have a much bigger varied order due to ship with the CA figures later this month. But we wanted to have some stuff here ASAP for you guys to play with in the mean time... So like Chris said... hang on sports fans it's coming!

I'm dying to get My Hands on the NEW Bodies with LJN style swivel Biceps....David said they would be out, before the whole Figures.
