    Original Toy Lines You'd Like Reproduced in Different Scale

    I love non-licensed toy lines. Characters that were created by toy companies, not based on licensed characters.

    I really appreciated when Castaway made Mego scale versions of Captain Action and Dr. Evil.

    What unique character lines would you like to see recreated in a different scale or format?

    My favorite format is the 3 3/4" scale, so I would be delighted to see on Super7 style cards:

    • Captain Action/ Dr. Evil
    • Zeroids (Escpecially Knight of Darkness)
    • Rom Spaceknight


    I often wonder if the license to do this is easier or harder to obtain than licensed characters.

    I'd love to hear what you'd like to see? Mego Matt Mason? 12 inch Stretch Monster? 6 inch Maskatron? Just for fun, share your wishlists here, or add to my 3 3/4" list. The only rule is non-licensed characters... unique to toy lines.

    3 3/4 inch M.A.S.K. Small enough to still have vehicles but the slightly larger scale would allow for better looking figures.
    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...

        Pulsar brought down just a tad to 12 inches so he can join the Adventure Team, same goes for Hypnos but he'd have to team up with the Intruders. Heck Bring Big Jim up to GI Joe size too.

                I thought we had a decent shot of seeing this happen if Doc Mego's partnership with Mattel would have lasted a little longer.

                          Can't believe it hasn't happened. They'd get my money.

                            I'm envisioning Mego Hulk style torsos with regular T2 legs strung to the body. Naw, too weird proportionally.
                            WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.

                              This thread reminds me of when they made some original 3-3/4" Star Wars figures in 12" scale

                              They were cute but too expensive to collect them all
