    Any more Super Powers Fist Fighters planned?

    I would really love to see this series continue. I broke down and bought a set of series 1 and 2. The combination of Mego figures and Kenner cards was just impossible to resist.

    These things are just gorgeous.

    I know I've said this before, but I think FF Aquaman needs someone to fight. How about a FF Black Manta?

      Shouldn't be hard to retrofit a Mattel.

          I'd put the whole figure in the freezer, then take a hammer to the body and shatter that sucker! Those bodies suck anyway.

          The line shoulda been called "World's Greatest Bow-Legged Hernia Heroes"

                  LMAO! My nephew who's on the spectrum would be upset it I did that to all the Mattel RA figures, because 1 of his all time favs when we were playing RA figs was taking *DRUNK (& on muscle relaxers) SUPERMAN & saying "Up, Up & Away.........wait He's SLEEPING!" -while making Superman fly & he just drops & flops over @ his waist while flying through the air. /my nephew Tony makes me do it over & over & then he does it over & over & over.....repetition is a staple for kids on the spectrum. But I must say, through FP Little People, then JL/JLU figures, MOTUC & finally re-Mego, I took a kid that was considered to be possibly NON-verbal to a mini-me....he also NEVER Shuts Up & has a better vocabulary than most high school students (he's 10) due to Playing toys w/ him constantly.

                    just crack them open like a walnut. Channel locks along the seam. Or vice grips or a vice. I save the hands and feet, looks like they will work for Famous Covers females.

                      I crushed the mattel bodies off and removed the heads, the head plug has a plastic thing in it that makes it next to impossible to just pull the head off. The mattel head does fit perfectly on a type S body though. I do mean perfectly.

                        Beat them like they owe you money. The bodies are not worth a dang.

                            Yeah Mattel really messed up that line, the terrible bodies were a big part of that. So take out your frustration on the crappy body and remove the only good parts, the head and costume.
