Collector Eddie Berst has unearthed what has to be the coolest vintage Mego image we’ve seen in years and generously allowed us to share it.

Right under the shelf of Mego Supergals are a shelf of Mego Dinah-Mite & Action Jackson with costumes.

I guess Isis and Wondergirl were out fighting crime somewhere? I wish these images were in color, but I love it anyway! This pic should be a t-shirt.

Well, it's 1974, Mego hadn't created those characters and also, they never got released in Oz anyway...

Thanks for sharing, Eddie!

I have no problem with blonde Wonder Woman, if I did, some folks might wonder about me.
