Knowing All About Marvel Action Figures

By Patty Goff


Small children and older people like to read about all of the comic book characters that exist today. The book publishers realize that marvel action figures are quite popular since they really look like the heroes and villains that are drawn within the scripts. A company called Mego was able to produce the best looking dolls ever made.

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.

Thor was a blond character since this hair color was quite popular back in the 70's. The workers at Mego made him realistic looking since his hair was rooted and his clothing were made from cloth. The toy makers of today really do not put the same quality into this figure since his hair and everything else is made from one mold.

Another marvelous toy made by Mego is the beautiful and unique Invisible Girl. She is dressed in her blue costume which can also be seen in the Fantastic Four books. Her hair is also rooted and has a flip at the end of it. A version made by Mattel is similar to the other Barbie dolls and it is very generic looking. A business called Toy Biz made a statue of her which is very unrealistic in appearance. Whenever people see the Mego Invisible Girl doll they immediately think about her comic book husband.

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.

The Incredible Hulk is another legendary character who has been around for decades and people still enjoy buying his image. There are many versions of this creature which are made from different toy industries. Once again Mego introduced the best version of the Hulk since he had removable clothing. His clothes were molded onto his body whenever other toy people created this figure.

Peter Parker was a weak teenage boy who could not defend himself against the school bullies who picked on him everyday. After a spider bit him this small young man became the powerful Spiderman. During their most successful time Mego created a doll which looked like this comic book character.

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.
