      Batman Superman Spiderman were the only POPY Hero releases, I believe.
      There is one Batman POPY MIB that has been on ebay for months. Everyone is watching and waiting for the BIN to drop. It's like New Year's Eve that never comes.

        Patience will score these for a decent price, they're not that hard to find.

          Bryan, just went looking for the popy Batman, but couldn't find it. Maybe gone? What was the BIN?

            Hi Clem! I did already ! There was no specific information on them,are they just regular megos put in Japanese boxes? No different markings on them? I went through and the saw the photos but they don't mention if they are rare,what they are worth,if they are different than US mego's etc...

                  Superman, Batman and Spidey are exactly the same as US Megos, just packaged in Popy boxes. The other figures in the Popy "TV Hero" line are exclusive to Japan and not on Mego bodies, but something similar.

                    Dunno why it aint there now.
                    The BIN was $360. It was POPY Batman MIB. Nice box, too.
                    Meule was watching it as well. Thomas are you reading this??

                      Yes, I am.
                      It's been a while since I've seen that Popy Batman. Guess the seller finally gave up trying to unload it at that price... for now anyway... but you can be damn sure it'll be back again.
                      And this time we'll have another interested party to deal with

                            They don't seem to be that common in Japan. I've been to a lot of toy stores there, and have never seen a Popy Superman, Batman or Spidey for sale. Never saw any Bullmark POTA either. The only Mego I've ever seen over there was a US carded Hulk (I wondered how he got to Japan in the first place )
