THE SHOGUN OF HARLEM!
Kinda cool. I dig the old school vibe of it!
Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.
That never came out did it?
Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings book now available!
Nope, unfortunately it was never released.
THE SHOGUN OF HARLEM!
I know it's would have been a ridiculous long shot, but the idea that excited me most about Microman licensing marvel figures was the possibility of Bug, Rann and Mari being produced as true-micronauts in their Mantlo/Golden era comic incarnations.
It is still baffling to me how Marvel was able to keep these characters, but lose Red Sonja.
loved the Rann repaint of Space Glider they put out a few years ago.

That Spidey looks very Mego to me.
Like a proto they did near the end that would have revolutionized action figures, but poor Marty ended up in the slammer and only proto pics exist.
You know, one of those Mego stories.
Type Two: The Mego body, not the disease.
yeah, i was really looking forward to that spiderman micronaut.
The people at Marvel must not be very smart. They could bring Prince Acroyear back if they just re-named him. The character without the helmet & armor has no resemblance to the toy. A basic costume re-design and a new name should fix it. Bill Mantlo invented the back story so why not just rename him King Spartak after his destroyed home world. Or maybe just The Spartakian since he is a loner and an outcast. The new name could be the pat of his outcast status. Such a simple solution.Originally Posted by samurainoir

Reminds me a lot of the very first super-poseable Spider-Man from the original Toy Biz Marvel Super Heroes line.

True.... although if you REALLY want to get technical, the original team are all "dead." (Except for Devil/Fireflyte.) They could do a complete redo in-continuity with the new uyniverse created at the end of the "New Voyages" series.
