There are so many individuals who like the way that small statues look within their home. These items are very special since they resemble human beings. A long time ago it was not unusual to find a great doll zone that really satisfied the needs of their customers. Every little boy around was very fascinated by a production place named Mego since they specialized in unique toys. Their figures were very top of the line in every way possible and people liked this very much.
In the early 70's Mego hit it really big when they started to sell figures which resembled famous comic book characters. They decided to contact DC comics publication in order to use the likenesses of certain characters on their toy models. This particular book industry gave them permission to utilize the characters of Superman, Batman, Robin and Shazam.
The statues were eight inches tall and they looked very extraordinary to the average consumer. People living within America were very proud of this particular product that only cost a few dollars. On today's market a person can spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on each of these models. There are many foreign figures which are similar to these models that went through different production channels.
Sometimes the Spanish Superman figure looked a little bit strange when he was placed side by side with his United States counterpart. The foreign statues were also cheaper than the ones that were sold to American citizens. During the years this business produced other characters that were featured on many of the television series in America.
It did not take long for people to see figures of "The Walton's, " "The Dukes Of Hazzard, " "Happy Days, " "Laverne and Shirley, " "Starsky and Hutch" and "Star Trek" on the shelves at toy stores. The figures that were designed after male characters looked spectacular. Mego had a harder time getting the faces of female characters correct.
It was not unusual for this company to use the same heads on a variety of female statues. Mego did not want to spend out so much money on female characters since their toy line was aimed at males. They felt that the young boys would not want a girl figure in their toy box. The Daisy Duke statue looks nothing like Catherine Bach.
This is also true for the Supergirl, Batgirl, Wonder Woman, Isis and Cat Woman eight inch figures that were sold in retail stores. All of these statues mentioned had the same baby face look upon them. Even though this travesty was happening the company went on to produce famous figures from certain films that were around at that time. They turned down the chance to make characters from "Star Wars" and decided to go with "The Black Hole" instead.
"The Black Hole" figures are very expensive on today's market even though they could not generate sales the first time around. "Star Wars" was popular from the very start and continues to do well in every toy store that is around the country. Mego even had a figure of Cher made while they were in operation.
