MEGO JET JUNGLE
For a Mego collector, there is nothing more exciting than finding out you're not done. When Tex Willer first appeared in the mid ninties or when John Bonavita unveiled Zorro within the pages of his book, making many collectors turn an eye towards the UK.
Well, thanks to collector Jane in the UK, we have another one of those discoveries with South Africa's Superman, Jet Jungle, a radio Superhero who is described as a mix of Tarzan and Superman .
The figure is a retooled Bruce Wayne head, it's amazing how practical this head is, it truly looks like an original sculpt of the character. Mego, as most know, used this head as the hero for the Italian Tex Willer line
The outfit is the Action Jackson Signal Spy outfit which looks just like Jet Jungles outfit, this must have been a slam dunk for Mego's sales agents. Are those Star Trek pants?
The box itself is in a combination of English and what might be dutch (or the Afrikanse dialect). The colors are fantastic!
The Megomuseum Wishes to thank Jane for her incredible contribution.
