      It's cute how the baby doll below Spidey seems to be looking up in astonishment.

      Who is that guy at the bottom?!?

        That ad doesn't make me feel secure at all. I was not a fan of that Spidey figure.

        Any idea what they did with KISS?
        If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

            I imagine that guy at the bottom is now somebody's great grandpa.

              I was really hoping somebody could tell me who he is. I assumed he was associated with sports commentary .

                Is he not the head of Remco? If not, I have absolutely no idea who that guy is.

                  Thats what I was thinking. I looked up the history on Remco and it was founded by two cousins: Ike Heller and Saul Robbins. That guy sure looks like an "Ike" to me.

                    I had that Spiderman as a kid, he never worked but he was fun to play with. I did have a smaller version that worked and it never got old watching him climb the "spider line".

                      Must've been a decent year for Remco, I recall knowing several kids who owned the Kiss Your Face Make-Up Kit and/or Spidey, myself included.

                        I don't know, looks more like a Saul.

                          I have a lot of love for the Energized heroes, especially Spidey, since he was the first one I had (and the first one made). The action feature and C-clamp he came with fascinated me for some reason, ad did the etched webs on his body, and that nice squishy head he had. I think the Remco Spidey head was actually more on-model than Mego's version. I know, blasphemy.

                            The KISS Makeup kit.
                            It was like, $10.00 at the time and I can remember thinking that it would take me forever to save up that much money.

                              That guy looks like he could be Horshack's father.
