This is probably a dumb question, but is the Reeve Superman in a resized suit compared to the Parkdale, or is the suit stretchy enough to fit various figures?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

Great update!
Not a dumb question at all, but the suits are definitely different. The comic head Supes is on the standard Mego 12" figure, and his torso and shoulder span are much thinner than the muscular version of the body, and both outfits are skin tight on the respective figures. The 13" Power Action Supes is wearing an even larger version of the outfit. Interestingly, there seems to be variations on the comic head Supes' suit, both sewn and non-sewn belts are possible. I think I've only seen sewn belts on the Reeves muscle version body and the Denys Fisher Power Action's suit has a non-sewn belt.Last edited by cjefferys; Jun 27, '19, 8:54 PM.Comment

This week we're going to talk about the Supervator, the most ignored Mego World's Greatest Superhero toys! Look for a new Vintage Mego and a revised gallery, just look at these awesome villain cards. Also, who is Jungle Cheif and what is a poison cave?

If Mego had the Green Goblin by this point, they also had the Lizard, so why not use him? Why invent "The Jungle Chief"?
I had never seen the image of Jungle Chief before. I assumed he was a Frank Buck "Bring 'Em Back Alive" type with a pith helmet and a big mustache...not a Leopard Man!

There is a couple of head-scratchers in this set that I'll explore in the video. There is a weird logo on the box I've never seen before.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

Were there cardboard separators inside the Supervator box? My boxed example is far from mint and has none. It seems, however, the box is HUGE compared to the needed size to house its components. Seems like a lot of wasted space to take up more room on a toystore shelf.WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.Comment

I've wanted to do a Jungle Chief custom for years: In my mind, he's a Tarzan foe, a fully-costumed evil version of The Phantom.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

I have two, both are just strewn in the box, I imagine a truly MIB example would feature dividers, most defintely.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions
