MEGO Action Stallion I MEGO Planet of the Apes

Village Playset & Forbidden Zone Trap
Treehouse and Fortress			Battering Ram /Catapult & Wagon

Mego Action Stallion is carried over from several other Mego lines

Planet of the Apes Action Stallion

Mego did a fair bit of recycling from Action Jackson to the planet of the apes line, from the M16's to the Astronauts entire wardrobe. The Action Stallion however is one bit of recycling that made a terrible amount of sense. Horses played such a major role in the series that this piece is essential to a Mego Planet of the Apes collection. Note that the front of the box features a prototype Mego Soldier Ape.

Mego would continue to use this horse logically in other lines such as the Super Knights , Dinah-Mite and the Western Heroes

There is a second Apes Horse! Parkdale Novelty (Canada) and Cipsa (Mexico) released this non articulated horse with the Catapult and Wagon set. This Horse was also proposed in 1976 as part of the Mego Waltons line but it never materialized.(Courtesy of ABMAC)
