    Vintage Mego 5: Mighty Mightor From France




    Another installment of Mego Museum Vintage Mego, this time we look at the Mighty Mightor 12″ action figure that was exclusive to France but made by Mego, the World’s Greatest Toy Company.

      Thanks, I imagine it may have been the same sculptor as the Fantastic Four figures, it shares some hallmarks of those characters.

          Appreciated, very informative. I think it's a well-done figure with nice details--it makes me yearn for other vintage 8"/12" Hanna-Barbera figures. I've always been a fan of Space Ghost, Blue Falcon, Mightor, and especially Biiiirdmaaan!

            To be honest, Mightor is the show I didn't dig. LOVED Birdman and liked Space Ghost, I remember when Mark showed me this I wrongly hoped this was a series.

              Mightor is the least of them but something in the design and prehistoric setting engages me.

                Cool figure but I think this is one of the cases were it might have been better had they colored the molded undies. I liked the cartoon except for Little Rok . Really found him annoying. Years later I also found it kind of cool his friend's name is Sheera.
                You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                  Had one that I got out of Ebay France many years ago. Not complete. Missing the shorts/club/bracelet. The helmet I had was missing one horn...and his head was completely grey. It was the 2nd Mego Meet exclusive in 8 inch scale which was a blast to do with other members back at the time we did it. I think Austin still has the scaled down mold in 8 inch scale...so if you are looking for one I think Austin can hook ya up I ended up de-greying the head...but since then it has started to turn back again. I think the cartoon Hanna Barbera stuff is something the new Mego Corp. should look into. I don't think FTC ever came out with a Mightor.

                    Nice video as always, and I dig this figure. I have a greater appreciation of Mightor after what they did with the concept in DC's wonderful Future Quest comic series by Jeff Parker.

                      Anyone know the value of a complete all original C8 boxed Mighty Mightor? I couldn't find any recorded sales.
