    Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that! Man, Round 2 really dangled some tasty carrots in front of our noses.

    He had the entire thing scanned at like 1200 dpi, he showed me, it was amazing.
    Yeah, that would be pretty amazing to see. I wonder if he'll ever think about selling scans.

    Murphy Anderson did all the art on the Superman and Batman Ideal playsets, so they are like a 2nd cousin to Captain Action to me. My lovely wife got me both of them for Christmas a while back. I'm missing a few Superman pieces like Lois and Perry, though.

    Bingo!!! that was it, would love to find these somewhere, I think it would have been cool if they also made
    Star Trek and Planet of the Apes, ideal though probably didn't have the license for them.

    Thanks Mr. Marion for sharing this, brings back some great memories.

    Yes! re: Colorforms. I really like those check-book-style ones.

    One of the many great toys of my childhood, and still an incredible and sturdy design. I always found it odd that Falcon doesn't have his civilian identity on the opposite side and that the Torch didn't have flame-off on his.

    The good ole days. I always considered these to be the next upgrade from Colorforms.

    Probably the most Marvel characters in one place outside a comic book at the time.

    I had the Batman, Superman, and Spider-Man Ideal sets. I never knew they made Dick Tracy.

    They also had Batman, Spiderman, Dick Tracy, Green Hornet and maybe another, this would have been
    around the 1973-74 era, I can't remember the name of these playsets but I know they existed.

    If anyone has any info, I would love to know. Thanks.
    You had these. Made by ideal in 1973.






    As far as I know Green Hornet wasn't one of them but ideal had the license during the 66-67 TV run.
