Show your Captain Action collection

[Makernaut]

Those collections are amazing! (also gotta mention...Danny, I love that sweet GI JOE 1969 collection, too.)

I have all of the Round 2 Marvel characters and Playing Mantis Green Hornet, Kato, Lone Ranger (Red shirt and blue outfit), and The Phantom. Captain Action was the last collection I started working on. No originals, though and I don't know if I quite have the passion for the line at this point to take that on. I do think they are among the coolest toys ever made and I'd love to get a Batman and Aquaman someday, but I'd have to luck into the deal of the century.

^Holy Smokes! You have some sweet stuff from several toy lines in that collection!

[The Batman Professor]

Superb! Purple suit CA in the parachute looks awesome.

I know it’s a fan-produced piece, but the Irwin-style Batmobile is a favorite of mine:

Sharkman can I come over and play??

I can bring some of my Sizzlers cars and we can break out those Star Wars early bird figures too

We can certainly work something out. Maybe a timeshare??

Cool story on the early bird set! I owned a couple of those over the years, but didn't keep any :(

Great stuff. I personally want a Batman & a Robin.

That’s how it starts, then you get the "fever."

[The Batman Professor]

Got this today. Glad to see the old boy still has some life in him.

I just nabbed my first vintage CA item--an Aquaman bodysuit in great shape for 53 years old. It's so well-made!

I plan to use it for either a custom CA or Mego 12" Aquaman.

^ Congrats! You have been chasing that for a while, haven't you?

[PNGwynne]

Yes, years lol, thank you. Trying now to decide if I want a CA mask or substitute head. I wonder how the Parkdale/Grand 12" Superman head would look painted blond and sans spitcurl... I'm adding Mego magnetic Robin glove-gauntlets, they look great.
