Since GA is going to be ready this Fall, I wonder how soon we will get a sneak peak at the packaging? Hoping they do away with the distressing though.

now that the initial excitment is fading, Easter seems so far away......

Just base the figures on Jose Luis Garcia Lopez's styleguide and away we go.

I have a few questions....

1) Can we expect ANY characters from SuperFriends such as Samuri, Wonder Twins, Black Vulcan, etc?
2) Will the Toys R Us in Canada carry these as well?
3) Will the heads be soft rubber with interchangable neck plugs?

[PNGwynne]

Jeez, yes I hope the heads have Mego-type plugs, too!

FC-type swivel heads would be awful.

Excellent post & idea!

YES! This line sounds exciting! I know I'm getting them. Raydeen, if they do what you have suggested above, and design all the characters on that art, they will be FANTASTIC! That's the ultimate homage to Mego too, using the characters costumes from Mego's era. I don't want this to become tatinted with characters like Steel, Nightwing, etc though like so many other current lines are. They should stick to the Mego-era comic book references in my opnion. So far they have so that's a GREAT sign! Yeah, to heck with Steel and such...bring on Captain Boomerang and Toyman!!

So I think that's the perfect idea Raydeen, new 8 inch figures costumed exactly like that artwork! Ingenuous!

That would be perfect!!

[Caelonfox]

I agree 100 %!!! That's an ideal basis for this line!!!!!!!!!!! Perfect choice!

I've been out of town for over a week with no access to the Internet. Tonight, a 38-year-old man just cried a little bit in joy. This is incredible news. Paul, you truly are a hero to us all for making this happen. To everyone involved, thank you. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some stocks I need to sell before Fall comes. I don't care how big a loss I'm going to take, this is worth it.

[shellhead]

Wow !! I can't wait to get these ! Way to go Paul !!

[puckace]

Late to the party due to computer failure, but no less excited!!!! Congratulations to EMCE, Paul, and everyone else who made this happen. I can't believe my first passion in toys is coming back to life. I love the Star Trek, but the WGSH are my absolute favorite toy line of all time. Let's hope these make a ton of $$$ for Mattel/DC/EMCE so that Hasbro/Marvel get on board and allow the line to include all of the World's Greatest Superheroes. What truly wonderful news. Can't wait to finally get a real WGSH Flash Megos are back. WoooooooHoooooooooo!!!

You mean you wouldn't want to see a Harley Quinn?
