\"\"<\/a> I’ve never really understood what possessed Mego<\/span><\/a> to make these beautiful action figures based on the Flash Gordon comic strip, it was two years before the movie and animated series and while I admit I knew who the character was as a kid, I just didn’t see this being a hit.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I’m really glad they did, ’cause they’re awesome! They’re at a slightly larger scale then the Superheroes which allowed more detail in the outfits as well they come with a ton of stuff. I’m of the mind they are the best action figures ever made of the classic characters.<\/span> <\/div>\n


<\/a>Speaking of Flash Gordon:<\/strong> One of my favourite modern Toy producers Bif Bang Pow! is releasing a set of Mego like 8″ Flash Gordon figures based on the 1980 movie. If you read this blog, you’ll know I am somewhat obsessed with that fine film, so it goes without saying that I’m pretty pleased.<\/span>Hopefully I can drive sales to convince <\/span>Jason Lenzi<\/span><\/a> to make an 8″ Prince Vultan, I need a Brian Blessed doll in a bad way and so do all of you…<\/span>
