Mego Venture Bros.

[Darklord Dave]

I was going to say that what was horrible for LOST works great for Venture Bros. - until I saw this picture.

Brock needs to be much, much taller than the other figures. But the cartoony look works with this body for everyone else they're showing.

 

[Memnoch]

I think Dr Venture looks the best. The rest, eh.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Ugh, I am disappointed. Simple 3.75" figures would be the perfect scale. These look...odd.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, I was thinking these could be fun... and most are decent. But Brock is just a mess; I appreciate they went with a larger body, but it just doesn't work.

Will probably get 21 and 24 though as they look pretty cool in the Mego style.

I hope that they go ahead and also release figures that follow the animation style as well.

This breaks my heart. This property would be much better served by someone who has had experience in making animated figures. Mattel could have nailed the look, but I would have preferred Neca/McFarlane scale. These look pretty disappointing, and I feel bad for Jackson and Doc being attached to these.

 

[minivader]

OMG! way to kill off a cool property. Really wish mezco, toynami or medicom got the license to do theese figures.

I actually like these. I think regular, completely molded figures would be kind of predictable and boring (plus, probably disappointing since only a few companies seem capable of doing decent figures of this type right now). But these are really wacky and fun, and I think, fit the nature of the show.

 

[Memnoch]

I bet Mattel or Mezco would have knocked these outta the park.

 

[galactiboy]

Mezco or Toynami would have been my picks as both have done great work with animated properties in the past.

I understand people's criticism, but these are supposed to be MEGO-esque, so I assume the slightly goofy appearance is deliberate and appropriate. That's the whole retro charm of MEGO and these were displayed amidst all the MEGO redos from DC, Marvel, POTA and ST.

The first real collectibles to come out of a highly anticipated license, so people are let down. I agree for Mego they are good, except Brock, awful job there. Still as most, I would love to see regular style action figures.

 

[stickman]

I like those 2 bee guys, and Ming. I hope to get these for my niece.

 

[Bamboota]

OMG!!! Gross.....The Venture Bros should only be done in Vinyl...none of this cloths BS.

What a disappointment!

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Toynami would have been perfect.

 

[The ill Jedi]

Not what I was expecting or wanted. These look terrible.

 

[The ill Jedi]

Toynami would have been perfect.

My thoughts exactly, they did an awesome job with the Futurama stuff.

 

[galactiboy]

Yep Toynami would have been my number one selection... not only is the Futurama series awesome, but the earlier Hanna Barbara were killer

The anti-MEGO sentiment on the internet is disgusting! Don't you kids realize that without MEGO, you wouldn't have your Sideshow Toys. You wouldn't have your Marvel Legends or your DCU. MEGO is the forefather of action figures!

Did you actually READ any of what is being said. The majority of us aren't against the Mego style, it just did NOT work for Venture Bros or Lost.

And? It's called evolution.

I never played with MEGO and I sure as hell won't buy them now.

Fully-sculpted action figures please.
