Wave 4.. VERY interesting fact...

Black Adam on Ebay

There are 3 Black Adams on Ebay right now.
All the pics show a loose collar on him, almost as if the back of his shirt is unsnapped. If the neckline was tighter, maybe his giraffe neck wouldn't look so bad.

I am going to have to go back to making a custom Black Adam for my son.

So I take it the majority favorite is Martian Manhunter for this wave.

He's indeed so cool I had to play! first time in a long time too. I really dig this figure.

I really want to order one now.......really tempting. I have the set preordered with EE. I think I may wait. ....Happy B-day Kryptonite !

Happy Birthday Krypt0nite!

I remember getting a Soldier Ape, which I still have, for my 11th birthday.

Megos are great birthday presents!

So I ordered a Martian Manhunter on ebay...

Sorry I have been overworked and tired but my wife threw me some toy money and after skimming thru here I went to ebay to order a Martian Manhunter. I see Darkseid and Black Adam is up too? But then I have to pay shipping for each. Confusing since we are usually getting these wavs in pairs.

What happened to Amok Time this time? Anyone have any insight?

[LOU]

Yes let's see the beauty!

Happy Birthday you old fart! Post some pictures please!

Just got Martian Manhunter today, and WOW--he's outstanding!!!

His body is perfect, the colors are perfect, the head sculpt is perfect, his costume, etc. I wouldn't change one thing about him! I've enjoyed all the figures made thus far, and they seem to get a little better each wave. J'Onn looks like he stepped right off of my wish list in 1978.

I received J'Onn as a birthday present today (my...gulp...40th), and it really took me back in time to when I received Mego's Green Arrow as a birthday gift. GA was a cut above, and quickly became one of my favorites. J'Onn evokes those same old feelings, as he too is a cut above.

To everyone who has made these new 'Megos' possible: THANK YOU!

[Brown Bear]

Got him in today... very happy and will recommend the seller. Again if anybody is looking for one for $25 plus shipping I'll hook you up with his addy.

I contacted this dude and am going to buy all three. I'll pick up Shazam later on I guess. Cannot wait to have a Darkseid!! Thanks for the tip Jim.

[jasonmego1277]

From what I read in earlier posts, Joe stated the neck was being shortened (at least) on Shazam. So I was left with a hint that the head sculpt may be getting reworked too. I'm going to withhold any critique until I see a production version. I would also like a straight forward shot of Black Adam. That angle in the one auction exaggerates his neck length. Anyone with a Aquaman, just turn him at that angle and he will appear to have a long neck too.

You have a valid point. Arthur looked that way to when I first saw him carded. I just it looked funny. I agree in waiting to physically see the figure before passing final judgement. The Darkseid looked good carded ......let's see how he looks loose and in hand as well.

Yeah, you're right because thinking back, the prototype had those resin-like specs/imperfections on it's face.

[CrimsonGhost]

I don't mind this final Black Adam sculpt. I think it does look a bit better than the prototype pics we saw a couple months ago.

I'm pretty sure you're just seeing the difference between the resin head and the vinyl head. The sculpt probably hasn't changed. I say probably because there's always that slim chance it was altered, but I don't think it was.

It almost looks like his suit isn't pulled all the way up.
