Land of the Lost
Author: Heath Smith Highquality
Line: Land of the Lost
Toy Execution: Custom
Packaging Execution: NA
Toy Customizers/Collaborators: Starbuk/Highquality
Author notes: This was an Extremely popular show when I was a kid. I can't believe not one action figure was ever made for it. It's so popular that kids of my generation helped to bring it to the Big Screen in the near future. This is a sampling of the line. Here we see the evil Sleestak, the Mysterious Enik and the Land of the Lost Cave with Battery Operated Light-Up Crystals. The line could easily expand to Marshall, Will, Holly, and Chaka. Even the entire Mego 1,000,000 B.C. Dinosaur line could be re-used. Standard Mego WGSH bodies are used as the base.

It's nice to see these submitted, they are great.

[palitoy]

I still can't believe that I'm 37 and no toy company has released a Sleestak doll. I would have had ten as a kid.

I'm just a sales guy with a vision. Starbuk did all the real work. We spent months on this project and I've never had a better time.

Thanks so much.

I was hoping these would get submitted. Still some of my favorite custom items.

Good Luck ;)

Land of the lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RULES!!!!! One of my all time favorites!

[monkey tennis]

I don't know the show :embarassed:
But I would have bought them

Reminds me of a cross between Flintstones and POTA

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

The guy on the right in the third picture looks SO SATISFIED with himself for taking off Sleestak's appendages! Great stuff love 'em.

[hyperjoe]

Holly is hot...

[Collect 'em all!]

Really nice work guys!

Land of the Lost ruled when we were kids! When I watch it now on DVD, it's still a lot of fun and is every bit as good as I remember it being...

Now, all you have to do is make a Marshall family's Cave Playset, the Lost City Playset, oh, and some Pylons!

Look great. However the first three photos don't want to display on my computer.

That is because this thread was brought back from the dead and I deleted them months ago.

Not that it's not appreciated. :biggrin:

[D-McMEGO]

AMAZING!
after watching the Marathon I have a new Love for this show !
Thanks for creating those figures!

[kryptosmaster]

Yeah I loved the marathon as well but the show was dead and gone by 1977 so as cool as these are I doubt Mego would've made them in 1978 for a show that wasn't on tv any more??
Maybe we can get the new Mego to make a sleestak, Enik & Cha-ka? Easy reissue of Alan Virdon with brown hair for Uncle Jack!
