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

[Scousebadger]

It's gone a mite quiet.

Is there any news?

[Mego Magyar]

Hey Doc! What's the word on the arrival of the new figures?

Early October, or late October early November?

I'm really eager to get my hands on the little darlings.

Your first body was great, minus the stringing issues, but this NEW body looks to be darned near perfect.

Maybe/hopefully Doc will answer you, he was quiet when I ask this question a couple of week ago.

Me too - planning on buying a few of 'em, especially the female bodies!

Ditto, there are a few customs I'm waiting to do until I get the new female figure.

I want to be sure to post this message here too - in case it accidentally disappears from the other thread.

I just want to let everyone here know that I have been working on the male, female, and teen bodies in 3D for four months now.
These bodies are going to the factory for tooling in July and I expect to have production done by October - hopefully in time to
show at New York Comicon. The bodies will retail for $5.00 each and I am not asking anyone to give me any money before the
bodies are in stock and ready to ship.

Hey Doc - just wondering if everything is still on track for these new bodies being available in October?

I'll get behind anything that doesn't have rubber bands. It is pretty much what kept me from customizing in this scale at all.

[B-Lister]

Really doesn't look as Mego-y as other bodies. The musculature is way off.

The hip articulation is much improved, but I like Castaway's torso better.

I will reserve final judgement until I have both in hand. But am excited o see what's coming.

[Mr Mego]

^^^ Yeah, I agreed with JediJaida...

[JediJaida]

Well, looking at the picture, I can't enlarge it but so much. It could be that the perspective is off a bit.

[thunderbolt]

^^^ Yeah, that one looks like it needs the most work. Unless it was shot in Tohoscope.

[JediJaida]

Looking at the prototype of the male teen figure (?), the forearms aren't bulky enough, and the legs look awfully skinny, while the torso is massive.

Still, it's not October yet, so we have a while to wait while the tweaking is done.

Best of Mattel ? .

Better Female Chest articulation so you can make Midriff showing Characters with no Ball Joint.

The more I look at these new bodies of Doc's, the more ideas I'm getting for customs. Especially the female bodies - they look MUCH better than what Mego originally came up with.
