    Mego of the Day: Fighting Yank


    Before Superman, Before Action Jackson, there was Fighting Yank, Mego's first action figure saw his share of battles, mostly legal. We'll get into that more in the new year when the Museum expands it's FY section.....

    I had the 'Snowbound' and Navy Dress outfits and one figure, the 'poor man's GI Joe', but it did offer some good variety to my Talking Commander and meager toy collection for a low price. Didn't know Mego had made this line..

      He looks like AJ's more handsome big brother. His look isn't bad. Why was AJ so frickin' ugly?

        I'm not sure why but I like to think they had the same sculptor.

          There's definitely a twinge of Mego's Superman and Aquaman sculpts in him too.

            Yeah, the first run of WGSH share some "family resemblance" as well, I totally agree.

                This line always reminds me of Chris Johnson.

                Its funny how certain lines remind of certain people here at the Museum.
