Hello everyone,

I really am into Spiderman at the moment so I am showing interest in the Empire Spiderman Crime Lab and the Spiderman Helicopter, both made by Empire obviously.
My question is, what is the quality of these items? Would you say that they are decent enough and related enough to Mego to add them to my collection of Mego?
Does any one have these item's, and if so, how much would I be paying for these loose or boxed.

Lot's of questions there I know, but really, any help would be appreciated (as always).
thanks

I used to collect the Empire stuff. It fits right in. The vans are actually more durable than the Mego ones.

I always love seeing those pics. One day I really have to get some Empire stuff. The problem is that if you want more than just a couple, having a place to display them all could be a b*tch.

I had the Spidey copter as a kid and loved it. My Mego Spidey had more vehicles than my Mego Batman!

Empire toys are very durable and are high quality.

I have a mego scale 1956 Corvette, from the sixites
a BIG mego scale Ranch and Bunk house Playset.
the hulk hide away set.
of course a couple of the Hippie vans.
some shogun robot rip offs 8 inch in size . But the plastic and metal is of high quality.

I have the Spidey Helicopter in the box. Not sure if it was ever put together but all the parts are there and the box is in awesome shape.

I have the van and love it! It's sturdy enough for my son to play with and looks great. I paid about $25 including shipping for mine but no box or accessories. Stickers look really nice on them. Displays great.
I have seen a copter with no landing gear for about same price at shop in town but really want to get a nicer one.
Don't know if that is average price or not.

yeah getting a price on these things would be great, does any one know how much I would be up for if I wanted a Spiderman Crime Lab or a Hulk Van in their boxes?

Steve Moore's the man for any questions on Empire stuff! I love looking at that pic of his set up.
