Even got in a bit on the Masters of the Universe in the 80's but nothing beat the megos and star wars for me!

I guess we must be getting up in age now and mass retro vintage interest must be waning. what a shame, this collection of commercials from my youth is priceless.

The 70's were so unique. The toys were awesome. Us kids didn't have the PS5's X-Box One, but it never mattered. I remember my imagination, my action figures, and my fun was all I needed. So many great times. Hell even the little green army men sets. SST's racers, Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle, and my biggest favorite TYCO/AFX slot🏁🏎🏁Racing🏁! These days had heart and true fun. Mego's World's Greatest Superheroes line-up was my other top toy. 🕷🕸Spider-Man🕷🕸, Thing, Human Torch, Hulk, Captain America and the Falcon, Green Goblin, Lizard, Iron-Man, Batman, Robin, Joker🃏, Penguin🐧, Superman, and my rare ones, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Wondergirl, Speedy(little Green Arrow, but red), and Green Arrow 🏹. O many more, and so much fun. Add the Planet of the Apes into it. Even Star Trek and you'd have a great time for a Battle Royale. Ah fun days as a kid.

But the Tyco-Pro and I think Aurora slot cars, Cox nitro planes,cars,trike, the SST racers of course, (you forgot the "smash-em Crash-em Derby" cars.). We had toys that taught us to build things too. Erector sets, (very mechanical, worth big bucks today) Lincoln Logs, Leggo's, Chemistry sets, model rockets with solid fuel engines, radio kits, Balsa wood airplanes, Play dough fun factory, all kinds of models. We had toys that inspired solid careers in free enterprise. We were inspired by real science, not political science.

Not by Mego but we had a lot of original GI Joe stuff too . I think it was '72 when the very first Megos hit adding more every year . I was 6 that year....so yeah . I don't remember that Fonzie one , or I wouldve wanted that (later 70s , I guess) cos I was/am huge fan of The Fonz ! Aaaaaayyy !

Right? Maybe she had too many points of articulation for 70s kids to handle? XD it's hard to say why Dinah didn't overtake Barbie, Dinah is smaller but there were plenty of dolls that size... Maybe they didn't get enough fashion? I don't think Dinah-Mite ever had much of a supporting cast. There was an African American Dinah-Mite, literally the same doll but black down to the head sculpt, so she wasn't a supporting character really. Maybe had they sold her pal with a new name... Odd ACTION Jackson was the same.

Lol Man , I didn't have these (didn't want 'em) but had all the Star Trek figures , a lot of the Planet of the Apes , Action Jackson and between my brother and myself , most of the super hero ones (I still have The Thing's "suit" 48 years later) , and there were A LOT of super hero ones . Not by Mego but we had a lot of original GI Joe stuff too . I think it was '72 when the very first Megos hit adding more every year . I was 6 that year....so yeah . I don't remember that Fonzie one , or I wouldve wanted that (later 70s , I guess) cos I was/am huge fan of The Fonz ! Aaaaaayyy !
Guess they had to say Mr. Fantastic could turn invisible, since they hadn't figured out how to stretch him (should've made him a smaller version of Stretch Armstrong).
Is it me or does it sound like he's saying "Blaction Jackson"?

What a Great Toy Company Mego was. They thought of a lot of great figure lines, and the commercials were just as exciting (music and all). I like the Narrators & Presenter too. I wish they would've focused more on the 3 3/4 O-Ring scale figures like Hasbro did with GiJoe. Marty was/is a Genius Man!👍
Great toys! I love the Seventies. I wonder why Dynamite... sorry, I meant Dinah-Mite, didn't become more famous than Barbie. The latter is still going strong now, while Dinah-Mite is totally forgotten.

Right? Maybe she had too many points of articulation for 70s kids to handle? XD it's hard to say why Dinah didn't overtake Barbie, Dinah is smaller but there were plenty of dolls that size... Maybe they didn't get enough fashion? I don't think Dinah-Mite ever had much of a supporting cast. There was an African American Dinah-Mite, literally the same doll but black down to the head sculpt, so she wasn't a supporting character really. Maybe had they sold her pal with a new name... Odd ACTION Jackson was the same.

Could be the name, while fun... It is a bit too much of a pun XD whole Barbie is just a somewhat uncommon person name.

Is it just me, or does the "Action Jackson" singer sound like Robert Goulet? And why does he keep singing it as a cross between "Waction Jackson" and "Blacktion Jackson" anyway?

Interesting ,this ain’t commercials, this is marketing for retailers,video presentations for retailers

How long did it take for your Phaser Two too break? (mine a weekend)
That guy who introduces the Action Jackson and Dynamite figures -- was that something people actually saw on network TV, or was it one of those films Mego only showed in-house to their employees to help them promote the figures?

Pause it at 13:41. Between the G and the O. Is that Dracula? It looks like it could be made into one.
My parents were smart. My brother and I had a room for our toys that we called "The play room". It was a collection through the years of the popular stuff of the time (the late 60's- mid 70's), and I have never seen any of this stuff in the USA. Is it Europe?
