Marvel Action Figures Are Great To Have

By Ruthie Calderon


Every person likes to hear exciting stories about super heroes who appear within comic books. The toy world also likes to manufacture marvel action figures throughout the year. The "Fantastic Four" is a popular comic book quartet which has been around for such a long period of time and they also make great looking dolls.

Thor and the rest of Avengers have been living in the same city for decades. None of these fictional characters ever seem to age and they also get younger looking as the years go by. One particular toy industry named Mego wanted to make a replica of Thor many years ago. Their plan proved to be successful since the doll was so great looking. His hair was long and wavy and all of his clothing was unique.

His mighty hammer is attached to his belt and he wears a nice silver helmet upon his golden locks. Thor is also wearing a pair of yellow boots which were designed especially for him since all of the other figures wear plain black boots. If someone were to purchase this item in mint condition they would spend a ton of cash for him.

The Thor items made by a company named Toy Biz were very inferior to the Mego brands. Unfortunately a child could not remove Thor's helmet since it is attached to his head. All of his clothes are also painted on to his body and therefore he could never dress in other outfits. Anyone could purchase this item in its seven or six inch form. Every American toy store carried this doll at some point in time.

These toy industries are also known for making many of the super villains which are associated with this brand. Dr. Doom is a well known villain who is associated with the "Fantastic Four." He is one mean and twisted person who is always trying to destroy the world. Mego never made a statue of this evil male but other toy companies have duplicated him over the years.

No true fan could forget the time that the Green Goblin murdered Peter Parker's girlfriend in cold blood. This is one villain that any human being would stay away from during their lifetime. There are quite a few statues which resemble the Green Goblin at each and every toy store. If someone is very lucky they are able to purchase a Green Goblin which was made by Mego.

Fans will always purchase a Sentinel statue whenever they buy a Storm doll. Every comic book fan knows that the dreaded Sentinels have captured Storm on many occasions and they enjoy torturing her a great deal. These items are much taller than any other hero or villain which Toy Biz has produced.

The true toy collector will search high and low in order to buy a Spider Woman doll which was released many years ago. Spider Woman is not as popular as the Invisible Girl but she does have her moments. Decades ago ABC television produced an animated series named "Spider Woman." The show was not a great hit but people still enjoyed the style and glamour of this particular character. Nowadays her doll is almost impossible to get from local dealers.
