    Doc Mego Muscle body

    Is the new muscle body being sold and Mego Meet? I read in another post that they were shown but not being sold. Any idea when we can these these?

    I had to leave during Doc's talk, so I have to believe he gave an update.

    I saw about 3 or 4 white prototypes about.

      I assume you're talking about the bulked up Hulk type Body? I'm also VERY curious about Doc' swivel Arm body's release date.

        That was there, also. I didn't realize it was his at the time.

        The protoypes felt better, not as heavy as the normal EMCE. Hopefully, that will remain, but I dunno.

            The muscle body is impressive, but I am hoping for a good teen body, I have a backlog of teenage/sidekick customs I want to do.

              Doc said he only brought a few to show and gave out a couple. He said they should be up on his site this week or soon after though.

                I hope so - I've been eagerly waiting for the Muscle Bodies to be released! Can't wait to start making customs with 'em!

                  Saw BOTH bodies and I must say they are quite impressive. I snagged 2 of the type2 with LJN arms and they are fantastic!

                    Right now his site has either been completely down, or loading very, very slowly!

                        Can't wait to get these... I have at least a half dozen characters I want to do as soon as I can get my hands on the muscle-body. Some great improvements from the original Hulk body as well. Love the jointed wrists and ankles, as well as the gripping hand.

                        Will there be an option of purchasing right-fist hands and left gripping hands? (I think the bodies we saw came with a left fist hand and right gripping hand?)

                          "Type 2 with LJN arms." I really like that description. That's pretty appropriate. My siblings and I had pretty much all the LJN Rookies and SWAT figures when I was really, really young. We even had the SWAT van! I remember comparing one of the bodies to a MEGO Type 2 and thinking, "These are awesome! Almost as good as a MEGO. But it would really be cool if they were combined somehow."

                            They hit very close to Doc leaving for WV so he only brought what he could squeeze into the suitcase. His other stuff had already departed via Stabilio Express. They are in but need to be added to the site for ordering. Just stay tuned they'll be there I'm sure. They are awesome. Had stuff waiting to go on the extended Hulk body since I heard they were in the works. The swivel bodies are a great combination of original Mego and the LJN swivel arms.
                            It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                              How do the swivel bodies differ from what castaway has already put out?

                              Any word on whether the Hulk body will be sold in different colors (flesh tone, etc)? I seem to recall mention of selling it white so we'd have to dye it ourselves.
