    Happy to see that Captain Action fans have another home here. There are a lot of crossover fans as we found out when we had put out a few Mego style figures via Castaway Toys a few years back. We'll be sure to post any new CA news here as well as on our Facebook pages.
    Best,

      I dig Cpt Action too. I got into the line when I snagged an auction lot of several uniforms and accessories. then I was hooked. I have only an original Dr Evil body, but have original Batman, Superman, Aquaman, Flash Gordon, the Phantom, Buck Rogers and Captain America costumes, set up on Playing Mantis bodies. I am starting to downsize though so will be listing them on ebay in the coming months

          I'd like to own a vintage CA Aquaman someday, Ideal did a good job on him.
          ^Completely agree about Aquaman. The CA version is every bit (if not more so?) as fascinating as Mego including Aquaman in an initial release of an action figure line.

          A (more or less ) minor character benefited from timing.......TWICE!!!

          I FREAKING LOVE THAT HAPPENED!!!

            ME TOO!! lol Praise be to Filmation.

            I love how Ideal did Aquaman's tunic, with the copper-colored cross-hatched "scales."
