Retro Aquaman and Manta review at ComicVine

[samurainoir]

Even though the line is done according to Matty, nice to see fans are still discovering the Retros and talking about them online.

Neat review. Although, some of the comments being left on the article are disheartening. There's definitely some kind of generational cut-off point for thinking Megos are cool... and also considering them action figures. So many collectors that grew up on "all plastic" will forever consider Megos to be "dolls." No sense of history... if it weren't for our "dolls" their little plastic men might not have happened.

At least they have a point of reference, given that they are referring to them as Robot Chicken dolls. It's one way to sell it to the kids if you are going the retro route over a more contemporary look.

It's really fascinating to see how the younger generation relates. I guess that's a marker of how much we're getting older. Still cool to see them getting picked up even if the reasoning seems a bit off.

I've not watched Robot Chicken in forever... have the retro action heroes turned up on there yet?

I'm actually really shocked that Robot Chicken fans haven't migrated over to the customs forums here to make more authentic Robot Chicken figures than they are actually producing.
