These will NOT last at $80 each! FTC $25 single DC Megos are a BARGAIN!

Yeah, these initial pictures aren't very promising. Of all the components in the set, I was most excited about getting a very Romita-esque Parker head---too bad there seems to be such a drop-off between the prototype and the production model. If they had really nailed the alter ego head and clothing, I was willing to pay the premium they are asking. Now, I don't know...
I just hope the outstanding Captain America/Steve Rogers doesn't turn out badly.Comment

For me personally, resin heads are an unforgivable sin here. At this price point I cannot see the justification for that choice. I don't care how limited these sets are, you HAVE to do vinyl heads.
The modern Spidey never really appealed to me, but the finished product simply looks awful. I try to be positive about all things ReMego, but it's becoming hard to find anything positive about this set.Comment

I'm a bit embarrassed because I totally championed these figures (and the whole forthcoming line) on this board & elsewhere once I saw the prototypes for the Spidey set and heard about the concept behind the line and the upcoming sets. I thought that it was a great concept with a great release schedule (in spite of it being more sparse than what FTC was doing with WGSH). If these are indeed the production sets, frankly, it looks like the beginning is the END, here. I don't see how they can redeem themselves from this."No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris MannixComment

I am calling EE later this morning to cancel my order. I have never done that before, but this is not worth my $70+tax+shipping to canada. I expected more.
This heads look as bad as Capt Pike. This really bites!Check out my website: Megozine Covers - HomeComment

I'll wait until someone who isn't banned from here for anti social behavior posts a critique. The guy you keep referencing was known as "Megosaurus" here and he has a thing for EMCE.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

Painting the head allows you greater control over the color. It's harder to match Pantone colors with plastic than it is with paint.
The only paint wear is on the plunger edge, which nobody sees anyway. I trim my plunger edges anyway, for greater poseability. Old TTT trick.Comment

China is just flat out phoning it in lately. As you know we had similar problems with some of our stuff recently. I personally feel for you guys, it's a major disappointment when you spend the time and energy, not to mention the money, it takes for something like this only to be hosed by China. It's a gut punch for sure, but I know you guys will pull it out. Hang in there.
