    Thank you Paul and Joe for all the new DC Superheroes

    We appreciate all your hard work and effort that brought us at least 21 new DC Superhero Mego Action Figures that did not previously exist.

    Just to put it into perspective... Mego only made 18 different DC characters at the 8" scale (not counting Tarzan and Isis).

    Thanks to EMCE, there are now 15 DC characters in Mego format that did not exist two years ago. Nothing anyone says can take away from that accomplishment.

    Agreed. Thanks for everything that was done.

    I wonder if there will come a time when Doc can say what figures were sculpted but not produced? Obviously, Doc was not allowed to talk about unreleased figures, but when will this change since the line is ending?

        Sad to read this news this morning. This line gave us some great figures to fill-in the gaps of what Mego provided to us many moons ago. The stand-outs for me continue to be Superman and the Green Lantern. Hats off for all the hard work that went into bringing this line to market.

          I would like to thank you both, too, Paul and Joe. I'm not so sad for myself as I am for the kids who won't know the 8" magic we knew as kids back in the day. I just kept hoping it would catch on, via their parents. It's ashame there were no commerical spots on Cartoon Network, Boomerang and Nickelodeon. But I'm grateful the dream was alive for awhile. And I'm also grateful for EMCE and drmego.com where we can get parts to keep the dream alive, if only for ourselves. And I have faith you guys will find a way to make it happen again...someday. Good luck to you both.

                    Thanks from a Mego purist "super collector." I enjoy this line very much and am as unhappy about the news as everyone else.

                      These were mentioned yesterday before the thread fell apart.

                        Big thanks for doing all that you did. When I got that first re mego, I was transported back in time. Without your vision Paul, I wouldn't have dug out my collection and enjoy them as much now as ever.

                        As far as the corporate weasels that you dealt with. They are fools to let this line die because of whatever bull crap excuses they made. This line in my opinion was gaining ground and would have thrived. The problem was they did not know how to distribute properly, put the right bodies on them, and down right blew it.

                        Paul, thank you for all you did. You did an amazing thing for us lovers of the greatest toys ever made and we are eternally grateful. It was my pleasure to meet and chat with at mego meet. I know if I need something for my collection, you are the man to go to.
                        Better yet, you are the man.

                        Thanks a billion

                              Thank you guys for trying bring back the childhood toys and allow Mattel to "modernize" them just to compramise to get the product in our hands.
                              What you did is still here (the figures...etc and they'll always be all over ebay....trading...selling.......)

                              You gave it your best. I am a little sick to my stomach about it but that's how life goes. You take a gamble and sometimes it don't work.
                              Best of luck with you guys and hopefully Mr. Clarke never stops the dream and he'll never give up!

                              I dedicate this little diddy to you all....
