The Mego 1983 project will be a multimedia event with print articles, videos and, of course, a special wing to the Mego Museum. This is not a “What If” this is the playbook Mego was crafting for the next year. It’s full of surprises!

We also reveal the cover for Toy-Ventures issue 13, which is now available for pre-order!

#mego #toyventures #batman

Issue #13 of Toy-Ventures Magazine will feature the never-before-seen plans for the 1983 World’s Greatest Superheroes toy line and a cover featuring artwork specially commissioned for Mego’s catalogue, gloriously coloured by Robyn Adams, founder of the Mego Museum.

Toy-Ventures 11

It is with cathartic pleasure that I announce that issue 11 of Toy-Ventures is at the press stage, I’m reviewing the first round draft right now.
While it is late, I prefer to think of it as “slow cooked,” and I feel it’s some of the best stuff we’ve ever put out. Tonka’s Steel Monsters is our main feature and that was daunting because I learned as I went. I had no foundation for this guide but I wanted it to be all encompassing.

Fortunately, I have a lot of awesome friends who hooked me up with former designers, shared their collection and their expertise. This truly was a group effort and I was just the foreman, sincerely grateful.
My regular contributors knocked it out of the park with an eclectic mix of stories, art and eye popping stuff. Also, we’ve got a new comer who delivered something absolutely special that I’ll talk about soon.
Anyway, I want to thank everyone for their patience, I hope you enjoy this one, it was daunting but so very fun and rewarding.

Onward and Upward!

The post Toy-Ventures Issue 11 is on the press appeared first on PS.

Tonka Steel Monsters- Toy-Ventures

I think one of the best parts about working with vintage toys is, you get to play with them while you do it. Case in point, at the mid-point of researching the line, I got inspired to emulate the incredible energy that Chris Franklin put into issue 11’s cover, and I must admit that it was cathartic.

Little off-shoot projects like this are something that charge my mental batteries. It no longer feels like work in any way.

I didn’t have the Steel Monsters as a kid because they came out too late for me, but I remember thinking, “I’m gonna buy all of this stuff someday!” and well, someday is now. Issue 11 features a cover story on the Tonka Steel Monsters toy line; if you pre-order through us, I’ll add a Metal Face air freshener, absolutely free (It smells like grapes!)

More reveals of Issue 11 later in the week.
