There isn't much about this set from Combex that I dislike, save it for being it hard to find and it's complete lack of Aquaman....

Nice, but it's missing Wonder Woman too!

Combex is the company that bought, and dismantled Marx Toys.

I don't think I have ever seen those before.

[B-Lister]

Wonder what the scale is.

Wonder Woman... Aquaman... where is the cry for the semi-offensive El Dorado?

The 70's were definitely the decade of crafts.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Those are new to me too...and now I want them!

Wow... I have never seen those. And boy do I want them in my collection. Thanks for sharing Brian!

The other set is monsters, I'll be showing that soon. As much as I want this one, I want that one even more....

^I think I've seen that set before in a book...maybe Hammett's?

I had the Craft House Super Powers paint figurines like this. Man, did I do a crappy job on those back in 1984!

Don't they have some kind of connection to Tomland too? I forget how though.

I remember seeing these guys in stores. I never had a desire to buy one though, I knew that with my limited painting skills, I'd just end up making a mess of them.

Tomland was a division of Combex , in a Remco/AHI situation. All items were sold under the Combex umbrella in sales materials.

[cjefferys]

Ah, got it, thank you sir.

I just got concrete proof of that BTW, before it was based on some articles I read.
