    My favourite Megos were my 12" Superhero figures, so to me that format is as synonymous with Mego as the 8" format.

      I love the Mego style body design and think it works suprisingly well in the 6", 7", 8", 9", and 12" scales. I'd hope that swivel biceps and maybe a torso joint become standard on it though.

      That said, I think there's way too much competition in the 12" field to make it worth it to enter. And my wallet's going to have enough trouble keeping up with the new 8" fare this year (and hopefully beyond) for me to pray TOO hard for new 12" Megos too.

        I like the 12 inchers. As a kid they were rare and mysterious. I didn't own one but my neighbor had a Spiderman. I kept asking to borrow it. As an adult I only have 4. Superman, Robin and two Spidey's. One in box, one not. I'd love to get a Magnetic Batman.

        I see the point of keeping it 8 inches though. If everyone else is already doing the larger size, then concentrate on the smaller.

          That would be cool if the 12inch megos were EMCE 8 inch and to see the STTMP using the Scottie, mcCoy,Kirk,ECT.... Buck Rogers would be awesome in 8 inch.

            I agree it would be cool to see some of the 12" megos done in 8" form. I do like the 12" figures, but 12" megos would not be much different from the 12" figures already on the market by other companies,. At 8" they are unique, at 12" they are lost in the crowd.

              I have to agree the 8 inch format makes the EMCE line unique and the reason for the resurgence. Were the 12 inch line very successful for Mego?
