I remember a friend I used to have had the Wolverine figure he said the claw always came off and the other one came with Dr Octopus.

The funny thing is that the saga was made to sell toys, yet many charas from the saga didn't get a figure version, I guess that's why Hasbro is releasing new Secret Wars 2-Packs (I want Ulysses Klaw!)

Cheers for that link Humby...
As I've mentioned before, Mego did produce some figures from very unexpected T.V. shows..."Dallas" was on the cards as well, if the company hadn't of gone belly-up too I believe.
I know Mego made 8" figures of the "Waltons"..,you know "Goodnight John Boy", as well as Laverne & Shirly dolls..heres the theme tune if you don't know the show I'm on about... :oops:


This is the best ref' site for Mego, Palitoy also released a few of the figures here in the U.K. aswell.

One series, I do like the look of figure wise, is the M.A.S.H. one made by Tri-Star toys, especially the Jeep!
More news, as its made, from new Action Force!

But apart from reading the odd Spiderman comic as a child, I've never been thet interested in super hero type comics, films or toys.. so didn't go for the action figures @ the time, that may just change now I'm older as this guy's (Kang) has sparked a interest in this line.

if you're interested in super hero figs you should check out the justice league unlimited figs.
after AF i think these are my favourite toys EVER.

The current Marvel Universe 4" line is great too, keep meaning to start a thread on it.
There is a collection of 2-packs from Secret Wars out, may have to track them down.
