    Lincoln International Monsters Gallery


    The Lincoln Monsters can often be dismissed as "Knockoffs" which they are but they are also a charming and fun monster toy line to collect. These eight inch Mego inspired figures debuted in the mid 1970's by Lincoln International, these figures saw distribution in the United Kingdon, Europe and much of North America.

    They're also my favourite mego-esque figures to collect, mainly because my dad sold them back in the day! Best of all, he carried the line because I asked him to. I have nothing but happy memories of my Lincoln Monsters getting in huge battles with my Mego Superheroes.


    A recreation of one of those fights can be seen below:




    Click here to visit the new Lincoln Monsters Page or click on a "Monster Sticker" below to see the individual character pages. I've included Star Trek Knockoff figure "Mr. Rock" just because he didn't fit anywhere else....

    OMG! I was just thinking the other day how I ( or someone) should do a recreation of the WGSH vs. Lincoln Monsters battle from the Wards classic catalog photo

    I was fantasizing about how it could be photographed from a zillion angles and done with that neat rotate feature that allows you to spin the photo!

    This is AWESOME, dude!

    Happy Anniversary!

    Even though I don't collect monsters I've always liked these guys. They are even more "Halloweeny" than their AHI cournterparts. Cool gallery!

    Oh and happy anniversary. It's a rare thing to find the right woman, esp. one who shares your mania (I know your wife is a BOP/G-Force fan)!
