That's pretty cool! I was looking for the awesome Palitoy artwork, but I guess it's covered.

And thanks for the link to explain Minder. I was not familiar with the show.

Cool! I like the Hulk mask in the "Super Hero" box as well. I see Superman, Batman, Spidey, some unknown dark-haired guy and...FAT ALBERT?!?

ha ha fat Albert ,i think that's the hulk himself ,the other 2 are if memory serves ,Spock and the 6 million dollar man ,there's a new avengers game ,i think it is ,with steed ,purdey and gambit in there as well

on second thoughts ,it might not be hulk it may be Frankenstein,quite a group lol

I think the guy above Spidey on that costume box might be Spock.
