You never forget your first, and, for many toy collectors, their first was Mego. In 1972, The World’s Greatest Super-Heroes! line debuted, and the toy aisle would never be the same again.
Longtime Mego collector Benjamin Holcomb tells the remarkable story of one of the most successful toylines of the 1970s. Mego 8″ Super-Heroes: Worlds Greatest Toys! features a chronological history of the company, interviews with former employees, and thorough coverage of each figure and its packaging variants. Complied using internal company documents, manufacturer and retail catalogs, mail order material, comic book ads, first-hand interviews, and concept art, Holcomb’s comprehensive volume is essential reading for any serious Mego enthusiast. Overflowing with breathtaking full-color images of every Marvel and DC character produced during the line’s run, Mego 8″ Super-Heroes: World’s Greatest Toys makes the perfect gift for the collector who already has all of the toys, or for the casual reader who just wants to remember them.
