    Mego Commercials Thread

    We can post youtube videos! Why haven't we done this yet? I'll go first, here is the TV version of Starsky and Hutch, not the Toyfair reel we all know and love:

      Lex has on blue Batman boots there!

      I don't recall seeing this one before. I also don't recall any of my 12" Megos having Fly-Away Action, but then again maybe it just got pitched with the box!

        Fly Away Action really came in "mid stream" around 1979, so it's possible yours came without them. Mego stickered it on boxes.

        The whole thing was cooked up quickly to compete with Remco's energized heroes.

          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

              I'm surprised this thread's not more popular. Mego had lots of great commercials.

                2XL. I've been having a lot of fun looking up and watching these old commercials.

                    Surprised the #1 result hasn't been posted yet. Also my personal favorite as they managed to squeeze almost the entire WGSH line!

                      I never had the toys but I think the Eagle Force commercials are pretty cool.

                        I remember seeing this one during an episode of "Plastic Man" 30 plus years ago.

                              And though not an action figure, still one mf my personal favorites:

                              "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
                              'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
                              Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
                              If your mission is magic your love will shine true."
