Knowing All About Marvel Action Figures

By Patty Goff


Toy collectors everywhere are always anxious to get their hands on a new product that has become available within the stores. This is one reason that marvel action figures are so popular with many males. Some of these items have been around for decades since Mego first introduced them to the public. Everyone was able to purchase Thor, Invisible Girl, Mr. Fantastic, The Thing, The Human Torch, Hulk, Iron Man, Spiderman, Conan and many others from this particular company.

A great man named Stan Lee had the good sense to create a strong good looking chap called Thor. Thor was totally against all evil people and he tried his best to bring good into the world. He wears a unique costume which includes a long cape and helmet.

He has long blond hair which flows down his back and it is always neat. Whenever a new toy company makes this figure they will always make a hammer that is oversized and mold Thor's hair. Mego was sure to give Thor nice rooted hair and the fans really appreciated this gesture.

Young girls and boys really enjoyed having a Sue Storm doll when they were growing up. Fans everywhere knew that Sue was the Invisible Girl who could make herself and other objects disappear. She was part of the Fantastic Four group and the only female among the males. There was a movie made about this character and her teammates a few years ago and it did really well at the box office. Mattel jumped on the band wagon and made their own version of this figure after the movie was released.

Sue had a husband named Reed Richards and he was the leader of this fantastic group of individuals. Everyone at Mego knew that a Mr. Fantastic doll should be added to their list of super hero statues. Their version of Reed was also realistic looking and he is very valuable on the current toy market. Toy Biz tried to make their own image of Mr. Fantastic but it does not have the same quality as the Mego brand doll.

A big green giant named the Incredible Hulk was also added to the Mego toy list. This statue was based upon the popular television series which aired within the United States. The figure wore a pair of ripped shorts and he had a very ugly grin across his face. Later productions of this toy came in a smaller version and they were also made through Toy Biz.

Spiderman is an iconic hero who has had his own television series and several movies throughout the years. Older people remember how excited they were when Mego came out with their version of this character. His face was carefully molded with a unique spider's mask but his clothes are removable.

People who lived during the 1970's were happy since they could take Spiderman's clothes off and throw them into the washing machine. Spiderman could also interact with two of his enemies that were sure to do damage to everything around. Mego created The Lizard and Green Goblin during the same time period as Spiderman.
