      Except for the hair color/paint apps being slightly different, he looks like Steve the Adventurer (l'Aventurier Steve) from Del (Delavennat).
      Like Steve there is a counterpart female, Demo Girl. Steve series has Sylvie and the indian, Tasko.
      The Demo Man & Demo Girl lines are from Bogi. They made tons of girls in various fashion lines.
      The Tong bodies were used in several other lines as well, from different companies.

        You can add Danny Dare (hated rival of Action Apeman!) to the Big-Jim-head-list too… but the head size does change a little across these lines, which is helpful if trying to ID the KO source.

            8"/20cm Mego size. Another thing to note is that Tong made changes to the bodies over time.
            All plastic bodies with plugs for the joints, to hard plastic torso/hip with metal rivets, to all hard plastic incl. the limbs.

            Other places you can find the Tong bodies with different heads include Johnny Muscle, Rescue Squad (with females, too) and Raggedy Ann and Andy (as posted here on the forum once)!
