    G.I. Joe vs Toughest Cop fight poster

    Those who know me know that I love boxing and as a kid made my mego's box each other. My pal whose a professional artist agreed to take on a commission to draw me a 70's style fight poster between the two toys that never fought each other (until now).

    He knocked it out of the park! Check out this guys' work: http://derekjessome.blogspot.ca/2014...ommission.html

        Just curious, did you get your Toughest Cop custom made? I seem to remember you trying to track down the head for him a while back. Or am I thinking of something else?
        Looking for:

        --Lion Rock "Mr Rock's" shoes/ boots (these may also be the same as the lion rock monster line boots)

        --Mystery Astronaught

                He was a creation from my brother as kids. He was the equivalent to a dollar store toy we owned that was thrown on a mego body using an outfit from the Rookies. We named him ourselves and the toy became iconic with my brothers and i. LOL

                  That's pretty cool, really! I like the "exactly what it says on the tin" name, too--Toughest Cop. It sounds almost like an old Gold Key comic.

                    Awesome!!!
                    I was beginning to wonder why I never owned him as a kid...lol
                    Now I'm thinking maybe I should...lol

                          Looks great! Just curious, what was the head from again? What type of figure I mean. Your story is so inspiring, I am thinking of making one now lol.

                            His name was really "Cycle Cop" and made by a german company called Durham.
