    There was an issue of Back Issue magazine that came out a couple of years back and it featured accounts from Roy Thomas and some others stating that is was very hard dealing with the ERB estate in regards to Tarzan.

    They might sell as part of the WGSH group, but I doubt they'd sell well on their own. So unless you get the rights to produce DC and Marvel characters I don't see why anyone would wanna put up the cash for these

    In addition, there's that Marvel Legends style Conan 2 Pk, so obviously they're open to toy licenses. Of course that appears to be a peg-warmer at my Wal-Mart so maybe not...

    If they do Tarzan and Conan, I'd prefer exact replicas. Would be cool.

    "If" they're able to produce a CONAN figure, let's hope that he doesn't have an oversized head like the MEGO one has.

    So there ya go first two for WGSH EMCE Repros

    Conan and Tarzan :-)
    Technically those two characters are owned by even bigger companies and even more stubborn then Marvel or DC could ever imagine. It would probably be a nightmare for Paul (Dr. Mego) to try and get licensing rights to produce action figures for Tarzan or even Conan. I am pretty sure Dr. Mego had to jump through a ton of hula hoops and red tape to get the rights to produce those Star Trek figures and I am sure it wasn't easy. If I am wrong, I am sure he'll correct me if he sees this.

    You want a Tarzan or Conan figure? I am pretty sure Dr. Mego could slap one together for you with all the parts he has laying around. You should give him a call.

    Conan & Tarzan

    That's brilliant.
    I'm new here so it might have been discussed before, but that would be great.

    Might be easier to get the rights/license than the Marvel & DC.

    That would be very, very cool. When I was a kid a good friend of mine had a mego conan. This was well before I even knew what a mego was. I loved chopping down other figures with that big battle axe.
