EMCE Toys new bodies in development - the end of the rubber bands

[Scousebadger]

I for one, am glad that he is doing away with the rubber bands.

Though it's no fault of his, the bands on his other female body were strung WAY too tight, and tended to snap.

Don't get me wrong Paul, I loved them a lot; but I'm glad to see that you decided to go in a whole new direction.

Not to mention keeping them within a decent price range.

I for two. The old-style Mego bodies were revolutionary in the 1970s, and as a kid I was just glad to get figures of my favourite heroes.

But the bar has been raised by other companies since then. I applaud DrMego for doing away with major weaknesses such as elastic bands and snapping joints.

Not to mention keeping prices down.

I do hope you consider doing your own range of rotocast heads for these new bodies.

We have a few licenses in play - some geared for different audiences - and of course our friends at Bif Bang Pow will be
able to use these new body styles in their figures.

Could that be for some Bif Bang Pow "Saturday Night Live" figures???!!

[groovedirk]

Any updates on those World War 2 Zombie figures you showed a few months back?? I'd love to be able to buy the gear and heads even if the full figures weren't ready yet.

And as an aside, just got my recent order in the mail from your site and love all the stuff I got. Thanks!

I'm interested in finding out what the new license is!

So far he's done POTA, Star Trek, Night of the Living Dead, so what else is there that we can all sink our metaphorical teeth into?

The possibilities are endless!

[Mr Mego]

Looks much better on Female bodies, hope that'll fits Zira of the POTA used for my customs in the future.

Can't wait to see new Male bodies! I like that plastic joints than rubber bands that is WAY too tight, it'll pop off....

Do they have POTA bodies with molded hairy hands like Mego?

[fun guy]

Yeah,Right on,I can't wait to see them when they come out.

[tllgn]

those are interesting ,i wonder what line their being for ? ,i have always thought the classic female body was just fine as was the male.
it seems without rubber bands they seem less mego-like ,perhaps going toward AHI ,except far better,will we see Action apemen or Mr Rock
on these new bodies?,oh well i think their cool ,ill get some .

[drmego]

Always possible

Great bodies and great prices!

Have you considered doing your own range of plastic heads to go with these?

Especially that female body: would be good to see more modern types than repros of the old Batgirl/Isis/Wonder Woman/Supergirl/Catwoman head.

[Fuzzysnail]

How long till you can announce your new lisence?

[Scousebadger]

I would appear to be invisible.

[bobws]

So looking forward to these! Glad to see the new style for the female body now all the belly showing superladies wont have a ball joint showing.

[Mike77]

Great job as always Doc. Will the teen body be the same height as the regular male body, just less built? also what is the height of the female body as compared to the male.

Thank you.

[drmego]

Yes - it will. Once I saw NECA's Django figures - and considering the fan base of our recent projects - it made me realize that
we had to advance past our beloved MEGOS and design for the modern generations.

They look Great Doc !! Looking forward to 'em. Will the hip joints have a ball joint type range of motion?
