New MEGO cover art

Sometimes the best laid plans of mice and action figures hit a (small) snag. Our upcoming book Mego 8″ Super-Heroes: World’s Greatest Toys! now has new cover art, shown above. For internal reasons, our friends up at DC Comics politely asked us to modify ours to remove the Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman action figures. So here’s the new, final design.

It’s currently available for preorder on Amazon.com, and we’ll have it up on our site for preorders shortly. It doesn’t ship until October (making it the perfect holiday gift for the Mego collector, or guys like me that used to have a bunch of those figures as a kid), and it’s already pre-selling a lot of copies.

And wait’ll you see the full-color layout of this book…
