    BBP Body quality?

    Hey guys I was looking at getting some Bif Bang Pow toys to use to make custom Star Trek Crew and was wondering what the quality is like for these bodies? It seems whenever I get a repo mego body the quality is terrible so I was just wondering if these are good since they are more mainstream than other repro bodies?

    Get the new Zica/CAW Type S body. Nothing else compares. BBP bodies are around the same as regular DM/Emce bods. Not bad but have the same issues those have.

      Yes, I think all BBP bodies are doc mego/EMCE, I would skip the middle man (package and clothed figure prices) and buy either direct from :

      Doc Mego site: http://drmego.fatcow.com/store/page10.html
      Doc even has pre-made "Caucasian body with black boot legs" (IE Star trek) for $15
      or Swivel arm buff body for $5 or Male caucasian mego-style body $7

      or

      Has doc bodies, mattel bodies or Type S bodies

      Hope this helps

              They don't make 'm like Mego used to.
              As a kid I once threw my Mego Kirk in free fall (see, I was way ahead of those movies) from the roof of our house (four levels down), and he landed in the turtle tank in the garden.
              Kirk was just fine, not a scratch or break, and he's still with me to this day.
