    MOTD: The Dare Brothers

    Today's Mego of the Day are the wonderfully obscure high flying acrobats The Dare Brothers, an extremely limited release by Mego that proves to be a challenge to collect today.

    "Dare Brothers! Imagine you're one of them!"

    Did you have these guys as a kid or did just find out about them now? Let us know at the Mego Forum.

    I never heard of these guys as a kid and not sure as an adult either. But after seeing them on display at MM I definately want a set. It's the whole "Collect Them All" thing. A nice MOTD choice.

        What the heck are they supposed to be…acrobats, strong men?

        Never heard of 'em.

            Were these sold in pairs, singles, on cards or in boxes? Anyone know?

                      The squatty, over-muscled style of these makes them seem like MOTU prototype figures.

                      I think I first heard of these in Bonavita's book. Of course, that goes for a LOT of Mego stuff!!!

                          Never heard of them. How tall are they?? It does look like a Hulk torso with a modified amalgum of T2 and Hulk arms as well.
