DST Spider-Man Limited Edition Collector Set

[melkorjunior]

It's funny, I was barely aware of who the Falcon was when the Megos were out--I think I might have seen him on a Power Records cover with Captain America--but the figure was so cool looking I just had to have it. My Mego collection consisted of: Spider-Man, Hulk, Goblin, Lizard, Torch, Thing, Iron Man, Falcon, Batman, Robin, Joker, Riddler, Penguin, Captain Marvel, Superman, Aquaman, and, until I decided he was lame, Mr. Mxyzptlk. Lots of characters I skipped because they didn't look cool to me or they just weren't "superhero-ish" enough; Mr. Fantastic I skipped because he was just sort of this regular looking guy; Thor I skipped because he had Farrah hair; Conan I skipped because he had Jacqueline Smith hair; Captain America I skipped because the head looked lame; with Tarzan I hated the flesh tights; and I never bought any of the girls. My Megos wore out or broke a lot, but the ones I always made sure I replaced through the years were Batman, Joker, Captain Marvel, Superman, Spider-Man, Lizard, Goblin, and Hulk. To me those 8 are the cream of the WGSH crop, even though Batman is almost unpardonably goofy. Hulk was a particular favorite because he could be a good guy or a bad guy when I played with him, and he kicked Superman's butt a LOT.

The big question is what size will Wolverine be?? In the comics he is 5'3" so I would not want a regular ReMego of him.

I would doubt you see different size figures in this line. As great as it would be to see heros in the correct scale odds are that will not happen.
Maybe just maybe if they make a hulk they will use Docs larger hulk body.

But I would bet every other figure will use the same body in this line. IMO

Removing comment, was thinking about the wrong company.

I really don't want another short Hulk.

I really like what EMCE is doing here, and it would be cool if the sets came with a coupon or order form for extra bodies. I know that Doc and Joe at EMCE had to deal with a lot of restrictions to make this happen and I hope that sales of this line can overcome the all the licensing "hoops" they had to jump through to make it happen.

First of all, congratulations to DST and EMCE for bringing Marvel Megos.
That said, I also think this is a very expensive set, and because of this, I am not sure I will buy the Spider-Man one (count me in for the Captain America one...)
In another thread Dr. Mego says he can not add two more bodies. But perhaps they still can include some rather inexpensive elements, for example a reproduction of the original card.
Just an idea.

Is that wolverine next to Spidey? LOL

So, Entertainment Earth, Big Bad Toy Store and Amok Time all have it for pre-order at $69.99. Who's the best to deal with? I've actually never ordered anything from any of them.

They are all fine. But this one helps out the museum:
