No, he’s not a Monster but Mr. Rock is one of Lincoln International’s greatest knockoff figures. Obviously marketed in 1976 as a reaction to the popularity of Mego’s Star Trek line<\/a>, Mr. Rock is just a little too blatant, which is why we love him so.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

He is worth more than 25 carded Mego Mr. Spock figures. This example has been lifted as you can see he is missing his fantastic space accessories. If you have a carded Mr. Rock for sale Please contact me<\/a>.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17271″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”img_link_large”][vc_column_text]It’s sort of what you might imagine Tony Randall would look like as Mr. Spock. Given with his budget nature, Mr Rock’s gun looks like a GI Joe Flare Gun, and his “Space communicator” looks like a transistor radio that would come with a barbie clone, it’s even pink! Here’s a tip, if you need one of these, search old Barbie clone knock-offs on eBay, it’s that easy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr. Rock’s insignia is also from GI Joe knock-offs pilot suits. He’s just hobbled together!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The card back is an obvious copy of the US cards and the figure is a “B” style variant as mentioned in Toy-Ventures magazine issue 3<\/a>.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17272″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”17273″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]There are colour versions of Mr. Rock’s sweater, the one on the left is textured material while on the right is smoother and closer to a Mego Star Trek figure. I have no idea which figure came first and is equally rare at this point.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is a third known variation where the shirt is almost purple, this may have just been running changes in production.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17274″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Mr. Rock has never been found in a solid box (although we hold out hope they exist) and the one above is a fan creation by yours truly. I doubt I’ll ever own a carded example so having this makes that pretty bearable.<\/b><\/p>\n

If you worked for Tomland toys or Lincoln International, please contact us, we’d love to know more about either company.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Issue 3 of Toy-Ventures Magazine<\/a> features the most comprehensive guide to the Lincoln Monsters every created with a detailed history of the company and of course, all the many iterations of the characters themselves.<\/strong><\/p>\n
