I have a FTC Clark Kent but I have to tell you that the hat isn't an exact reproduction of the original Mego one. The Mego one is slightly bent on the left and right side of the brim, the FTC one isn't bent at all and the hat is more round and I think also a bit more flat.Comment

^That makes me wonder if it's a black version of the Wyatt Earp hat.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

Yeah, I just looked this up in the accessory check and it looks quite close to it. The only differences being black colour, soft rubbery material and it could be a bit shrunken, it seems to me not as big as the Wyatt Earp hat.Comment

I love Accessory Check. This black hat would be a good choice for Mego Zorro, then.
Regarding size: I think, when reproducing vintage items, that FTC sends originals overseas for duplication and the copies are thus a bit smaller. That's why, for example, their WGSH repro heads are smaller than Mego ones, but their original sculpts are often bigger.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment
