The Island of Lost Megos


What do you do when a toy company marries your favourite television show with your favourite action figure design? Well, if you're Scott Adams, the founder of the Megomuseum website, you create a blog about it.


The Island of Lost Megos celebrates Bif Bang Pow's new "Lost" line and hopes to introduce series fans and toy collectors alike to the addicting pleasures of Mego and more importantly, creating your own custom Lost characters to go along with your BBP figures.

As Scott elaborates in his recent article "Eight Reasons Why It's Awesome They Are Making Lost Megos" there is already a lot of opportunity for custom goodness, so check it out and enjoy.

Venture Brothers Card Art: A Sneak Peak

The good folks at BifBangPow! have given the Megomuseum another early look at their packaging, this time for Henchmen 24 and 21 from the hit series "The Venture Brothers"

If you think they pretty true to the show, it's because show creators Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick jointly designed them, you can't get a better pedigree than that!

Each figure will contain a part of the Helper "Build a Figure" , which really does feel like something Rusty Venture would put together.
