Best 'B' or 'C' Hero Merchandise

[Wee67]

What is your favorite line or even item that features some of the lesser known heroes?

For me, I gotta go with the 7-11 Slurpee cups. Where else can you get something with Odin or Cosmic Boy or even Clea. I think some merchandisers would rather make a 5th or 6th version of Wolverine rather than give a lesser character some licensing love.

Slupree cups are probably the best example. Another one would be the 70s Topps Marvel
stickers and one that sticks in my mind is the Fleetwood Ghost rider motorcycle toy.
Great thread!

yeah i gotta go with super powers

The Slurpee cups have more obscure character choices than Super Powers.

Yeah slurpee cups rule when it comes to B characters. On a side note, has anyone seen these new Toon Tumblers super hero glasses? They got both Marvel and DC characters and a lot of B levels in there.

I love the Toon Tumblers but man, it's hard to keep up with the "Con Exclusives".

That Green Arrow Super Friends archery set is way cool. The devil is a target!!!

Spiderwoman is definitely a B character. Somehow, she seemed to get a lot of merchandising in the late 70's. I think Marvel really believed she was going to be huge.

Its not vintage by any means, but the current Mini Mates line has some real small timers. They have their 47 varieties of Wolverine, but they also have a lot of supporters- Havok, Ambush Bug, Ultron... heck they even have a Ma Hunkel.

I remember seeing Marvel glasses in a vending machine. They were tiny. Heck, they were shot glasses...for kids! Anyway, I ended up with a Ms. Marvel one. I had no idea who she was. I was disappointed.

I dig that these fit in with the Superpowers line.

Oh yeah, esp. the "snare arm" one. That is dead on a Super Powers Swampy. I think it was theorized at one point it was an unused SP Swamp Thing mold, but apparently that's been found to not be true.
