MCKENZIE MCKUSTOMS PRESENTS-SUPERGIRL
I had been wanting to produce a female Mego custom for quite some time now. I tried various Mego-like figures and nothing seemed to work to my specifications. As I often do when in a jam, I looked to the work of fellow Mego customizers I admire for inspiration. I found the solution to my problems in Mego's backyard. In Mego produced a fully articulated female action figure, Dinah-Mite. Dinah is cute, blond, and able to strike many a superheroic pose so, Bullseye! SG's entire outfit is modeled after late/great artist Michael Turner's version of The Maiden Of Might. handmade by myself, with the exception of the boots, which are modified Breyer Girl boots, and the Supergirl chest logo, courtesy of Doc Mego. I also banged out a custom card for SG, enclosed in Cast-A-Way Toy's Super Clamshell packaging. I hope ya' like Her :) I have a few more female Mego's planned, Stay tuned friends...

MCKENZIE MCKUSTOMS PRESENTS-THE WORLD'S GREATEST LAWMEN!
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you My second line of custom Mego style action figures (After the 'Heroes' line, and before The Creature Commandos) The World's Greatest Lawmen! I'm a big fan of B-Westerns, and Western Comics, so I decided to bang out some custom figures of some of my favorite characters just for fun. The line-up consists of Red Ryder (Star of TV, Film, Radio, and his very own comic), Billy The Kid (Based on the Charlton Comics version of The Kid), Red Mask (real life Western star Tim Holt's comic book alter ego), The Durango Kid (B-Western Icon, and comic book cowboy, played by the great- Charles Starret), And last , but certainly not least, That daring, and resourceful masked man, The Lone Ranger! Each figure features custom outfits, weaponry. and custom card art. The super clamshell packaging is by Cast-A-Way Toys. Hope you like em' Buckaroo's :)
