    Clark Kent AE head, Dinah Mite Don, or Superman?

    I just found this Superman head in a lot of Mego stuff I recently purchased. The head has a different skin tone than my other Type 1 Superman heads. It has less red in it. There may be some super faint copyright marks on the neck, or none at all. It's hard to tell. Here are some pictures. The head in question is the one on the far left. The one in the middle is a regular Superman head and the head on the far right is a real AE Bruce Wayne head (coffee color and NO markings at all on the neck). Could he be a real Clark Kent head or possibly a Dinah Mite "Don?" Thanks

    no markings/faint markings, the lack of red color in the mix usually point to an AE/SI head. i dunno what head was used for Don maybe someone else can chime in.

        It is difficult to tell from the picture. I have had a number of AE heads from time to time and I believe they vary a bit in color too so it could be - but it looks more like the Don that I have - it seems to have more of a mocha color. A good score either way - the Don is rare too

          Thanks for the input, guys. Seems like he could be either one. Now I just have to decide whether to display him as a Clark or a Don

            Wow... I didn't know Don's head is legit, very interested. I have the same as your AE Bruce Wayne. He has mocha coffee skin.

              I'm not an expert but to me it looks like the mocha color head is larger in height and width than the other two, so if your saying the Bruce is an actual AE Wayne, I'm guessing the mocha color one would be a Don head.

                Nice color comparisons. Mocha colored head with either no copyright info or faint copyright info would be a Clark Kent. Peach color with absolutely NO trace of copyright info would be a Mego Don and long neck stems on either (type 1 style) with early paint, protruding pupils into lower lid, etc for the Don. There are variations on paint styles but they tend to run in groups from what I've seen over the years.
