Damn I thought GL was going to be Hal. Now I kind of want to cancel my preorder. The PotA looks fantastic.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Hal is in the next couple of waves. All the upcoming stuff looks really good and I’m slowly catching up on things I missed. I can’t recommend ZLC Collectibles enough. Good prices and in good condition, figures and packaging. And sorry PJ but I really like the Wonka figure lol.

Head sculpts for a Gene Wilder Dr. Frankenstein, Universal Mummy, and Peter Cushing have been shown. Speculation on the Cushing head sculpt is for one of the characters he played the Hammer Horror films.

I’m really hoping the 14 inch Bruce Lee in the yellow jumpsuit they showed awhile back eventually makes it in.

Nice to see these starting to hit retail. My package from ZLC collectibles came in today with Scotty, Bones, Rockette, Wolfman, and Pennywise. They all look great and if I wasn’t so exhausted from doing yard work all day I’d pop them open. I will say the Bones figure is kinda pale, especially when compared to Scotty. I guess I should have noticed it when ordering them.

I remember seeing some as a kid and liking that they had Marvel and DC characters, but they were just a bit before my time, so I didn't have any or see them in stores. Megos are one of the all-time great toy lines, though. Any action figure collector should know this.

Megos were my childhood in the 70’s. I remember seeing some as a kid and liking that they had Marvel and DC characters, but they were just a bit before my time, so I didn't have any or see them in stores. Megos are one of the all-time great toy lines, though. Any action figure collector should know this. I would play for hours in my backyard with Megos or the 1:32 scale army men. Either by myself of either two of my friends. I am talking hours. We would build forts for them. My yard was great for both. It was 250 yards long and about 25-30 wide. (It sucked when my father passed the lawn cutting duties off to me though!) LOL But as a kid it was great for playing sports or just playing with toys. The driveway wrapped around the house and was raised about 3 feet from the yard. Where the driveway ended was on a 3’ high wall that ran the length of the driveway with a dirt ramp in the middle to get into the yard. And in the right corner of the driveway was my spot. The rock wall was a “cliff or mountain” with a 6’ dirt patch with a big oak tree about half way in the dirt patch. And to the side was the start of the lawn “jungle/forest” with a 8” pond with fountain that was the “River/ocean”. And for hours on end you could see me there playing with Mego Star Trek, PotA, Action Jackson, Robin Hood, Superheroes, Legends of the West and the LJN SWAT/Rookies/Emergency figures. Or 12” GI Joe’s or little plastic army men. So many adventures where had there. Unfortunately when my father passed away my mother ended up selling the house to a developer who tore it down to make an access road to the development of townhouse he built. Although I was married by the time that all happened it was a very sad day.
