    I picked these guys up 3 years ago at my first Mego Meet. I think they are Great!!! Any info on who made them, what different types were made if any, Different outfits etc...
    The backer was made by the Toyroom and if my eyesite has not totally failed me yet the back of the body says made in India 2OO1.

    THANKS FOR ANY INFO

    The info on the back of the bodies basically means that the figures were built on Classic TV Toys Bodies. It was definitely made by a member here on the museum. Can't remember who.

      And "The Toyroom" on the back of the cards is a member here. He makes custom cards and boxes. He may remember who made the figures.

        Ctvt really??? The quality of the body is nothing like what I have ever ordered from them before... They look more like Docs quality of bodies. But no where does it say doc Mego on it

          I think they might have been the work of TrueDave, who hasn't posted in awhile.

            I know the Toyroom well I have ordered from him before great stuff... Hopefully he may chime in and remember something... I'm more interested in if there are other kinds... Or just the copter rescue ones.

                Yes I believe it was TrueDave. I think the Copter Rescue were the only ones done in that format...
