I Love seeing these old comic book ads. Very Cool

I like how Marvel put a TM beside Cap and Spidey, but there's Wonder Woman sitting at the bottom big as day and no one bothered.

You also gotta love the rush job on getting Vader and Yoda's likenesses down. I bet whoever did the art from the Kubert School (looks kind of like Joe himself) didn't think these characters rated much attention at the time!

Love that Dracula!

The Yoda is hilarious on that ad, the Vader isn't bad. If you read the text, they offer Battlestar figures but they're down to the pegwarmers and kind of make fun of it. Also whats a "Phanton"?

I used to mix and match my 3 3/4" stuff a lot when I was a kid.

I remember an ad for a bunch of 3 3/4" figures that had the Pocket Super Heroes in it. I want to say it was all Mego, but it may have had other lines too. I think maybe it was a Hills ad? You just jogged my memory with that comment. I played with my like-sized figures across all lines too.

Oh, and notice the mention of the Dukes gift set? Mego's last gasp indeed.

That's cool, I checked the 5th link is broken that showing up with many different numbers in that search link, weird through.

BTW, I noticed that Yoda's face and with a pink robe looks creeeeeeeeeeepy!
