    Tarzan dollar store knockoff

    I remember my great grandma getting me one back in the late 80's? She lived in bad area and the older kids called me out for playing with a doll. He came with a blue monkey. He was similar in style to this superman http://m.ebay.com/itm/Superman-Bootl...753?nav=SEARCH
    If anyone has a pic of one I'm dying to see it again.

    The monkey variates from being the Action Jackson jungle playset monkey to that blue one.

      There was a knockoff just like that one on Ebay recently. It was the Tarzan that you had. If I find the auction I'll message ya.
      "When not too many people can see we're all the same
      And because of all their tears,
      Their eyes can't hope to see
      The beauty that surrounds them
      Isn't it a pity".

        That's it. I opened him right away so the package isn't ringing any bells. Very cool to see all these years later.

          That packaging rips-off the old Tarzan Aurora box art. I have a Batman bootleg which swipes the Aurora Batman kit art, so it must have been a thing!

                I remember this figure, very nice looking classic Tarzan, I also like the card art, but it was kind of funny that Tarz decided to cover his head during his tanning booth visits.

                  I don't always look for Tarzan on ebay but do these pop up all that often?
