Odeon Toys to Re-Release Brick Mantooth Action Figure

[RSS]

Recently ressurected toy maker Odeon Toys (http://www.odeontoys.com/) announced today that they would be re releasing their hit action figure "Brick Mantooth: Action Model" to toy stores in 2010.



Released originally in 1975, the Mantooth doll was a tremendous hit which current Odeon toys president Victor Machismo Sr attributes to one key factor, manliness. "Brick had more testosterone than any other toy on the market, he was more bionic than Steve Austin, his fists smashed through GI Joe's puny Kung fu Grip" Machismo adds " And Big Jim took one look at Brick and ran like the fancy little princess that he was"



While Odeon released a number of outfits and vehicles for Brick including the "Mantooth Party Van", current releases for Odeon Toys simply include the original action figure and potentially some of his "manmates" outfits.

The Brick Mantooth doll will come as shown and sold in a replica solid box at the Plaidstallions.com website. It will be on display at the EMCE toys booth at this weekend's 2010 Toy Fair (http://www.emcetoys.com/). For more on Odeon toys please check out their website http://www.odeontoys.com/



Be sure to check out the Mego Museum today for an equally cool announcement regarding all things 8 inch action figures.

Just an aside, this is totally legit, no foolin', I'm making a Brick Mantooth action figure in 2010.

Many thanks to my creative partners in crime, Scott C Adams, Steve Moore and Sean Sansom, Joe and Paul from EMCE for the tremendous help to make this dream come true!

Stay Tuned!

awesome,

you are definitely exploding now.
you guys are going to have a blast at the Toy Fare and there may be a whole bunch of confused buyers wandering about.

where do we get a set of these beauties and when do we get the charming Lucy Softcurves female model sidekick? More importantly will she have an outfit that matches Bricks?

Brick is going BIG time!

I remember buying one of those at a Ben Franklin store with a marked down price, but my mom threw it away. Glad to see someone is reviving this classic toy.

brilliant multi faceted buildup on these, by the way. The different threads (superC, Odeon, mascot history, etc.) giving away just a little bit of this at a time and then tying it all together with a mascot release is waay cool. I can't wait to see what comes next.
Put me down for one of the party vans if they get redone.

I hope he is a huge success so Odeon might follow up with a Guy Karate figure!

Best comment from the PS blog: "the package likely cannot be lifted from the weight of all of the awesome it contains..."

Agreed!
Totally genius!

Dear Lord help me... I want one of those! Particularly if it comes with the MM case!

The only thing better would be if he were a fist fighter.

Does this mean we are finally going to get a Odeon Chesty Morgan doll?
