Micronauts Micro Lazer
Mego was mainly known for licensing other peoples properties but Micronauts was one of those brands they would license to other toy companies and without argument, their most successful “house brand”.

Colouring Book Theatre: Dune Activity Book

Ruffle Shirt Mondays!
I think making ruffles mandatory on Mondays would make the world that much better a place. Who wants to be the pioneer?
1984 LJN Toys Dune Catalog
