MEGO 50TH ANNIVERSARY 8" WORLDS GREATEST SUPERHEROES REVIEW!

Today is super exciting as we take a look at the brand nrw relaunch of the 70's line that started it all!! WGSH!!
Thanks to mountaintowntoys.com!

[@franciscorivas3322]

Awesome to see these figures back, brings back lots and of memories and nostalgia, would love it if Hasbro would do a re launch of the Gijoe adventure team

[@spaceknight793]

They did, but it didn't go over so well. I forget the year but they put out a bunch of $10 figs at Wal-Mart...the 1970 AT lineup. This was not long after the massive 40th Anniversary series (rereleasing figs and accessories from 1964) ended. The whole 1/6th era ended then as well. Whew, what a TON of great 1/6th scale items we got from Hasbro and 3rd party creators. I was expecting a larger release from the OT era but the sales just weren't there. Plus, stores like Wal-Mart wanted no part of the "big box" items anymore. What I would have given for a perfect rerelease of the Mummy's Tomb set! Also, there was a very amazing line of repros done by the GI Joe collectors club. They were pricey but worth it, imo. Track those down if you can.

[@mars0395]

Awesome! If there were anyone in the Mego community to get them all before anyone else, I'm glad it was you.

[@JosephProductions]

I wasn't the first but thanks!

[@SuperDuperToyBox]

Found SUperman, Batman & Robin at Walmart 2nite .. I played with these as a child in the '70s, and they look like they fell out of time

[@ColbyZcom]

Those are great! I wish Marvel would jump on too!

[@stjecat]

Awesome! So far I have Superman. Can't wait to get rest.

[@yourkillercustomscom]

Awesome my first toys as a kid it's so cool to see them back! Any word if we may see a Marvel 50th? Peace!

[@JosephProductions]

Not at the moment but I'd love to see those!

[@RussellHughes-bk6lv]

I will have these DC figures all of them!

[@UpAllNight325]

Christmas came early Joseph!

[@paulparker1360]

Thoes are gorgeous. Look so close to the ones I played with as a kid. But even as a kid, I hated the kitchen mitts for gloves

[@allenbelk6222]

Nostalgia is a funny thing. I hated the oven mitts as a kid, but now I'm happy to have them back, at least for the 50th anniversary.

[@JosephProductions]

You don't want those oven mitts, get outta here! 😉

[@michaelleary9233]

Yeah, the gloves on the newer ones are an improvement, like the Fantastic Four ones back in the day.

[@kirkphilbrick7458]

I remember my original Aquaman had an A sticker on his belt. Sad to see they missed that detail.

[@JosephProductions]

I mentioned in the video it fail off..

[@scorchedearthvideos4440]

Need to pick some of these up!

[@RussellHughes-bk6lv]

I will have all 6 of them!

[@allenbelk6222]

I've heard from people who say Aquaman's belt buckle falls off fairly easily. Even in the box. Seems like a pretty common problem. I'll probably try some double sided fabric tape.

[@Fatjohny100]

At 58.. I am so excited for my new Megos... I pre ordered on Amazon.. still waiting for them.. I did get a carded Flash, he's awesome..

[@wayneperry9585]

Really nice figures, love the boxs, the unforms are nice but the bodies are crap, would have like to see the type 2 bobies insterd of these easy to break bodies

[@ezlmonqzy9650]

I really hope we get a mego kingdom cone line

[@JosephProductions]

Sorry at the end the song background doubled so the video ends earlier, cheers!

[@pooddescrewch8718]

I always wanted a removable cowl Batman

[@charliebrownie4158]

I just finished getting the last ones for both waves I guess.

[@oldscoolcooldiecast1879]

I found batman couple days ago the very last migos figure walmart had lol now I need Robin and then green Lantern unless I find the others first lol its my goal to get the whole collection to display I'm also looking for the target exclusive anniversary gi joe 12 inch figures that came in the shoe box like packages can't find them anywhere and just getting interested in them lol

[@SIKE01]

fond MEGO memories 🙃

[@pooddescrewch8718]

I had an original Green Arrow

[@pooddescrewch8718]

Solomon Grundy , Lobo , and Sinestro would be nice

[@pooddescrewch8718]

Legion of Superheroes characters like Mon- El or Timberwolf would be great ¡!

[@esa5952]

Great review. Are the chest decals for the flash and gl paper stickers like the original WGSH or did Mego go with what they’re using on their modern figures like the previews exclusive shazam and black Adam ?

[@JosephProductions]

They seem to be paper but the really good kind that won't fall off like the vintage. More steam pressed idk the term but very good like those figures

[@russgreen6524]

The "A" fell off your Aquaman. lol

[@JosephProductions]

Just like the vintage! Lol

[@TYMMSTER]

The decals on Green Lantern and Flash stickers as well I figure?

[@Ron1961]

Thnx for the great review! Where can I buy them? And must the golden sticker on the plastic front? I see also boxes without the golden sticker. Regards, Ron

[@JosephProductions]

If you don't see the sticker on them they are a knockoff from figures toy company, you can get them at zlccollectibles.com, or any speciality retailer online Always inspect the figures online to make sure they are really mego

[@Ron1961]

@@JosephProductions How can I be sure to have a really Mego? Regards, Ron

[@JosephProductions]

@@Ron1961 It has a sticker and a official mego logo on the box, also you can easily spot them because FTC versions look cheap. If they have a pale cheap looking body avoid it

[@RFDeStefano]

I love them and getting them. Did they not use the same face molds to make these? That would explain why they look so close.

[@JosephProductions]

Yup they used actual original figures to have copied in a factory!

[@BATMAN-qi8bo]

@@JosephProductions they look so cool 😎 man

[@O_dawg56]

My A just fell off I CANT FIND IT 😭😭

[@pooddescrewch8718]

Is there Marvel characters available ?

[@robcesp2]

They are great! I have Batman and Robin. The knee bend is really lacking . Not as good as the original. You could get 90 degrees.. not these...

[@JosephProductions]

Yeah if one thing I'd like improved is better knee articulation for sure!

[@allenbelk6222]

Paul Clarke was saying that was due to a factory error, and will be corrected. He added that you can trim about 2mm off the bottom of the thigh at the back of the knee to fix it, but I'm waiting until I have an extra figure to experiment with.

[@JosephProductions]

@@allenbelk6222 oh cool! I'm gonna try that out!

[@robcesp2]

@@allenbelk6222 heated up the thighs, wiggled and pulled. Came out no problem. Trimmed the back of the leg and it definitely made a big difference. Thanks.

[@andersonslade3226]

Head sculpts on Flash and Green Lantern don't fit. They're the only WGSHs that look serious, all the others are basically smirking.

[@nammis77]

Are they doing Spiderman and the Hulk also?

[@JosephProductions]

No those aren't DC

[@nammis77]

@@JosephProductions That's a shame. I have those 2 original ones. Would be cool with some repros. in boxes.

[@JosephProductions]

@@nammis77 That'd be up to Marvel and I'd for sure like repros of them!

[@allenbelk6222]

Apparently, Marvel's deal with Hasbro is pretty all-encompassing.

[@allenbelk6222]

I'm kinda hoping, that *maybe* Mego and Hasbro might work out some kind of deal for Marvel like they did with GI Joe.

Wrong comic series brother
