SPOILER ALERT

In the last episode the camera pulls back to reveal a man in an insane asylum playing with the toys.

FIN

fans and collectors should not worry about the mego style hurting venture since bif bang pow said the figure of Brock once shown will have collectors and fans taking a dump in their pants from the awesome ness of it. as for lost the first attempt did not sell well. these may prove lost is something that as toys do not work.

These look like they are from Robot Chicken. Like they could use these for the show.

I think they look neat and scary at the same time! Much better than the kubricks.

Holy Hell. There's so much wrong with these figures. The likenesses are actually good, but they're on heads that are too big for their bodies. And the heads are more detailed than the bodies. Why is it that figures this size often have disproportionate heads?

And why are they choosing the least desirable outfits? Locke's clothes are fine, but Hurley in his mental institution pajamas and robe? Ben in his Other/Henry Gale disguise? I hope the licensor doesn't give outright approval and instead comes back with some notes.

Bif Bang Pow's bobbleheads are fine for those who collect those. The prototypes shown for their Jack and Sawyer action figures didn't have the best likenesses, so I hope the finished product will look better. Aren't those Jack and Sawyer figures from a more traditional action figure line, like six-inches? So, they have three seperate lines of Lost figures?

To quoth the poet Homer "These are the suckiest bunch of sucks to ever suck."

This does not bode well. If BBP thought these were good enough to show off they clearly have a warped sense of 'good'.

They look like hydrocephalic Thunderbirds. Nightmarish.

Why aren't they making G.I. Joe-style 3 3/4" figures for The Venture Brothers?

I'm still baffled that people would want Lost action figures in the first place. It's like how the McFarlane line had Shannon in it... suntanning. Wow, a girl in a bikini lying down, that's going to move a lot of merchandise.

Or maybe it will. Never underestimate the depravity of geeks, I suppose.

What. The fuck.

Custom "Stepfather" Action figure, HERE I COME!

Yeah....Megos really do NOTHING for me. They're dolls from the 70's that appeal to nostalgia-can anyone anywhere honestly tell me that those hunk of crap megos are in any way superior to the articulated action figures of today? I loves me sum Venture Bros. but I will not ever be buying Venture Mego Dolls....its action figures or bust for me. And I still think that they should be in the 4-5 inch scale and come in two packs-its the only way to get the whole damn show in plastic. I want the world of Venture to rival the World of Springfield on my toy shelves.

FYI, head sculpts sometimes shrink when cast in plastic, so these may be prototypes head castings in resin, and they'll size down to match the plastic stock bodies they're on. If you've ever noticed a promo photo where the toy's head is Photoshopped on, that was likely the reason why.

Or, maybe BBP is simply going for what would look the most fun and retro, since photo-realistic Lost figures are still for sale at TRU for $1.99.

Myself, I want them all.

When they do the regular figures, I'll get the regular figures. Still not a fan of Megos.

Mego is the best kind of action figure to actually play with when you are a little kid.

The heads on those figures look too large. The realistic-headed Megos I remember, like Kirk and Spock and Tarzan, all looked pretty good to me.

Okay, the Megos idea seemed cool for the VB figs but now I'm not sure. We'll have to see, I guess.

I think these are in line with the way Mego adapted a lot of TV real live action shows, Google the Dukes of Hazard for example, Boss Hog in particular. While Lost lost my attention 4 episodes into Season 2, I dig these adaptions, though hope the shipped product has a lessened neck to head ratio.

I do think Hurley has the old Boss Hog body, sort of like how the Kenner Firar Tuck from the Kostner / Rickman Robin Hood used the Gommorean Guad body.This would probably be impossible since the original Mego molds went missing in Mexico eons ago, though, right?

I dig Megos, and even dig the Famous Covers adaptations of Marvel characters released more recently, as well as the Phantom done Mego style 8" earlier this year. As a fan of the scale and style, and derivatives of the style like Toy Fair's Mego Theater or Robot Chicken, I'm excited to see Venture Brothers crafted as 8" clothed characters.

Can't wait to startle my newborn with lavish dioramas pitting Mego style Venture Brothers against a the horde of 12" zombies, monsters, and Cyber-Men I've collected over the years. On a battlefield littered with Kenner Power-Droids, Ewoks, Chinese knock-off Galaxy Ranger Stormtroopers, and Lego Space Men.

What better way to shape a child's mind while teaching them the true history of the nerd apocalypse?

But it's Benjamin Linus. If he DOESN'T look like he's going to kill me in my sleep, someone did something wrong.

Howcum Locke looks more like the Buddha than Hurley does? That's just unright.

the short of it is....these toys make me want to gouge out my eyes and never see the sun again, if it was free I would never buy them, I wouldn't even give these away to the homeless nor needy children....
