Aquaman with webbed hands?

You've been corrected...Your Welcome.

Hmmmmm. that didn't sound so cordial.

Sorry if I still feel essentially the same way as I did before I saw the
catalogue pictue.... the only difference to what I said before is that
it's not a drawing, it was a few distant prototype kind of shots from
a catalogue pic...which means that anything that looked
remotely "webbed" in the 70s would be easy to mistake for any other
"webbed looking" hand in modern day.

So it remains still kinda fishy (ahem!) to me.

Because Tonner charges well over one hundred dollar for their dolls.
I remember seeing the first Wonder Woman, Batgirl, and Supergirl
he made in FAO Schwartz and almost fainted from sticker shock.

Storm would be kind of cool. If the Tonner doll has one, I don't see why we couldn't get a mego one.

I have never understood the over the top quality of the fascination with this figure's "unique feature".

Meanie has this figure...and if I've understood correctly (please correct me
if I'm wrong), aquired it loose...IMHO that means the hands could've come
from anywhere...so, regardless, it's my understanding that there was
once an advert (a drawn advert even!) with the WShark that had
Aquaman with webbed hands in it and that the combo of Meanie's figure
with the advert has caused this collector's broohaha over the "Megoness
of webbed hands on an Aquaman."

Rob Ligotti - Blue Meanie here on the boards - is the owner of the only
pair of webbed hands we have ever seen.

Since Rob is a fellow Long Islander, I could cast the hands and give
them back to him the same day - BUT it is up to him to make that
decision and I am not going to pressure him.

I think that it is best just to let it be. It is a MEGO legend. It should not be cloned.

Id use them for a custom "MAN FROM ATLANTIS" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or better yet, Storm! The A-Man needs something to ride on!

I think it would be stupid like Aquaman having pointed ears.

Don't hold back your feelings Lonnie, its not healthy.

Could also use the webbed hands for a cool Neptune Perkins custom of the All-Star Squadron. I'm sure they could be used for a lot of other customs as well as a custom Aquaman.

How about a removable hand that can be replaced with a hook hand?

I dont think the hooked hand would work with the goofy Charlie Brown head the new figure has.

if the doc cast webbed hands I'd buy them-think of the cool customs like triton with webbed hands etc.

I don't think I'd like the webbed hands. It's fine the way it is.
