Canadian Boxed Spider-Car

Mark Schmidt sent in photos of this rare item, a bilingual boxed Spider-Car from Parkdale Novelty. Previously it was believed all Parkdale did was sticker the US packaging, it seems that they also did a run of their own box. Thanks to Mark for sharing this northern rarity.

Meet Spider-Man, the Wicked Witch and Cornelius the Ape at Gold Circle!

There is just so much to love about this vintage Mego store appearance ad, like the word Shaboom and the use of Aquaman and Tarzan in the toy ad. Below are some of the pieces of paper you would get from such an appearance.

Spidey would hand these little fliers to kids, fortunately kids saved them!

Lucky Apes kids would get this, a signed picture of Caesar acting as Cornelius, a McDowell is a McDowell to mego....

L'uomo Ragno!

Our buddy Olmo sent in this cool pic from the 1978 Harbert Catalog, where the sole Mego figure for sale was none other than everyone's favourite web head. These Harbert cards do crop up periodically but are not easy to find.

Palitoy of the Day: The Thing

Oh yes indeed it's Clobbering time with the ever loving blue eyed Thing on his very rare Palitoy green card. Sure he's common as heck on a French "Pin Pin" card but hop the English Channel and he's one tough cookie to find. This comes from the collection of Bill Frost. More Palitoy goodness on Monday....

Mego of the Day: The Falcon

Our Mego of the Day is Marvel comics The Falcon, when people talk about Mego at the height of their creativity, the Green Arrow is often mentioned but honestly, look at this guy! Those boots, the wings, the outfit, he's one of the best Mego ever produced.

The Ever Loving Blue Eyed Palitoy Thing

Completing our Trifecta of foreign cards this week, a clobberin' new addition to the Mego Museum World's Greatest Superheroes Section today courtesy of Bill Frost, it's a beautiful example of a UK Palitoy Carded Thing, only he and the Human Torch saw release on these sweet cards.
