    Pretty sure he did, can't remember when exactly, probably in the first or second season.

      I'm not positive, but I don't think so. He wore a wool Ivy League cap at times, and a straw hat, too but I don't recall a larger denim cap.

      Looks good/more apt on Huggy Bear, though.

            The mego head likeness was interesting, I do think John Boy did wear a hat similar to the mego denim in some episodes of the first season, I think a pair of those circular bifocals a typewriter and desk as an accessory would complete John Boy.

            Sticking with the Waltons I also think they did a good job on the Grandfather sculpt played by Will Geer.

                  who else thought at the line
                  "and another hero has an old friend try his costume on for size."
                  thought this was the '66 Alfred dressed as Batman variant...?

                    I always enjoy seeing things I've somehow missed. Like the custom Tarzan Comic Action Hero. Love that the newsletter aggregates content from all sources of news.

                        ^Yeah, even though I come here every day, I still miss good stuff like this. I had no idea about any of these auctions, for instance. That Wonder Woman karate outfit...DANG!!!

                        Nice job as always, peeps.

                          Really enjoyed the newsletter this week, esp. FB customs I have missed. Love the CA Tarzan, it made me smile.

                          And thrilled at the prospect of more Oz MM cards!! Thanks, Robyn. I suspect another trivia contest in the making .

                                After 40+ years it still makes me smile to see people loving these toys....can't wait to truly begin buying some vintage Megos.
                                Thank you for this news, and info on what others do with their toys.
