I remember these figures being fairly poorly made–the legs and arms seemed to bend and break off very easily, and the colors seemed so garish. The obscure character list was nice, tho.

Dr. Doom is actually pretty comic accurate for the end of the series where he is capeless.

and i always wondered why wolverine came with black claws

One thing I remembered about the Secret Wars figures was that the chest patterns on some figures were susceptible to being rubbed away, i.e. things like Spider-Man's webbings and Captain America's stripes. Must've been the plastic and/or paint Mattel used on the figs.

I love the collection "Secret Wars".
Here in Brazil were released exclusive toys from this collection.
As the Castle Of Spiderman and Doctor Doom's Castle.
Very bizarre.

DC Super Powers and Marvel Secret Wars. Oh how they brought such happiness into my life. I loved these toys just as much as my G.I. Joe. The Marvel ones had some weird things though. They all had shields, and some had blasters. My Wolverine also had black claws instead of silver. But these toys brought hours and hours of fun. We had no Mego toys in Iowa so this was heaven for me when these finally came out.
