Mego gets some coverage in Spider-Man: The Icon

[Earth 2 Chris]

Newsarama has an excerpt from the new book, this time focusing on Spidey's licensing explosion in the 70s. Of course, Mego is featured!

Be sure to click on the Spider-Buggy toy for a pdf of several pages.

The Museum even gets a plug, really nice. Some of that info is a little off, from what I skimmed the author has their release dates confused but still, it looks like yet another book I must own.

I totally missed the Museum plug. D'oh! That's what I get for skimming first. I was so excited to see Mego Spidey's head over on Newsarama's front page I got ahead of myself.

Once again, very cool for the museum. I may have to get this too, although I'd be more interested in a "Spider-Man: Collected" type of book. For sheer qty of product, I think Spidey ruled the 70s toy aisles.

I would love to see a book like that.

That Spider-man medical kit is classic, especially the box pic showing the Hulk checking Spidey's heartbeat.

It took me all day and about half a tank of gas to track this book down and it's massive! I went over toSpiderman Collector and it came as no surprise that webmaster Sy Winnie supplied much of the merchandising photos used in the book.

Sy also made mention on his forum that he is planning his own Spiderman merchandise book, he has the goods, that's for sure.
