Another great review as a 70's kid I had both the REMCO Energized SPIDEY and 8" MEGO which actually was my first blister carded MEGO before several of the DC Super Friends joined the party. In 76' we all had copies of The Amazing Spider-Man on the night stand a SPIDEY Halloween costume in the closet and a pair of Spider-Man UNDEROOS on at bedtime! Such a great time to be a kid.
I had that Marvel World playset. It's odd how instant recognition of something you haven't thought about in decades makes memories flood back.
These vids are perfect you never spend touch time droning on about each figure just right to it and onto the next one. Awesome
I also wanted to say that Mego not only made great Spiderman action figures but they really shined with their entire Superhero line composed of both Marvel and DC characters. Not only did Mego make great superhero action figures but their Micronauts line of toys were fantastic as well. What ever happened to Mego? They were clearly one of the best and greatest toy manufacturers and if they were still around today I’m sure they would be making some incredible toys.
Spider-Man is the Marvel Superhero most True Believers can identify in as Spidey had problems with money/girls/ school. He is so relatable. The 1960s Spider-Man & 1980s Spider-Man cartoons were the best IMHO.
Great video for a great character.
The Mego Green Goblin is a class looking figure.
Another excellent overview of vintage toys. Well done. Of course by now if you recognize my name you probably know my story and instantly know my top figure will always be the 8 inch Mego Spider-man. I am happy to say I STILL have my original figure in his original box. That's how much revered him. I also have the 12 inch Mego Spidey and of course that Remco Spider-man. I always thought his head looked like it belonged on a fully articulated figure. I also agree with your assessment that the Mangler was probably one of the goofiest ideas ever. I got the impression they came up with that idea from the infamous Green Hornet episode of the Batman '66 series, where the Hornet and Kato are thrown into a machine and spat out as life-sized stamps.
"The Amazing Spider-Man Web-Shooter" from 1975. This
is a true Spidey grail piece for me, and remains one of
my personal all-time favorites in my Spider-Man collection.
p.s. "THWIP"... ;)
That Marvel World Adventure Playset was literally one of my favorite toys as a kid. It was so cool to have all of those characters in one package, even if it they were nothing more than cheap cardboard cut-outs.
i love this channel keep up the
good work
I remember seeing that REMCO Energized Spider-man at a store when I was a kid. Back then I thought it was a toy based on the cartoon show since I had no idea Spider-man comics existed. I live on an island. Literally.
I loved the spiderman kraven plastic assembly kit diorama. Truly iconic possibly not a toy but I had it as a toy at the age of 8
Thanks again for another super superhero video. I have most of the Spider-man items in your video. My first ever Spider-man toy was the 8" Mego figure with the type 1 body. I've had it since 1973 or 1974. And I recently bought the Palitoy fist-fighting version. I have both of the Remco Spider-man figures (one with the original box). I love the Ideal Spider-man game. And it's interesting that there is no paper or cardboard anywhere on the game except of course, for its box. Even the game board is made of a sturdy plastic. I also have the Incredible Hulk game, and they both have great artwork on the boxes. They display very nicely with my collection. The camera on the Peter Parker figure in your video is from the I Dream of Jeannie doll line. I have a Ken that came with that same camera.
I also have that unusual Supervator play set made by Mego (It's not quite as odd ad the Mangler!) It has great artwork of Spider-man and the Green Goblin on the box.
I recently bought the Popy Spider-man (without the accessories). This Spider-man is usually astronomically priced on Ebay, but I was fortunate to find one for a good price. The Popy Spider-man has such an undeniable charm, even my 11-year-old nephew enjoys playing with it.
So, you just basically took 3/4 of my childhood (As I had about 3/4 of the toys on this list! :D ) and put it on this list, huh??
This video is awesome!! I truly love every single thing about it.
Amazing work. Thank you so much!!
Very cool video 👍👍👍 love spider-man and a big fan of MEGO..... it's totally awesome that they are coming back....✌👽
As a kid in the 70s I loved on Christmas morning opening up my Mego action figures from Spider man( my favorite) to the Soldier ape also my favorite.
Great Video Tony. My favorite Spidey is the Mego Pocket Action Hero from 1980. I still have it as well as my 8" Mego Spidey
Spiderman was the first superhero I liked as a kid. I was about 5 at the time. I use to watch the original spiderman cartoon series. I use to have a spiderman and green goblin action figures.
Yes! The webmaker set!
Also, I took a Dr. McCoy Star Trek 8” figure, drew glasses on his face, and attached four 24” x 1/4” springs to make a Dr. Octopus to fight my Mego Spiderman.
Gr3at collection Tony!
Spiderman is my all time favorite Superhero! I try to collect cool Spiderman toys! I absolutely love your channel and your content! Keep up the great work and I look forward to the next one. Cheers!
Really enjoyed ur video, I too am a huge Spidey fan n grew up playing with the mego's!! My brother luvd Batman, me "spider-man". A few toys worth mentioning were the spider-man colorform's set,the almighty cheap watergun, which is worth $$$$ now!! N the big head bust bank was cool on my dresser, lol
Rest well, Steve Ditko, and Stan Lee... We'll miss ya!
"Nuff said!
Cool video
02:10 I had a slightly different version of the web maker. All I have left over is a few of the tiny rubber spiders.
Awesome man! Just watched a fee of the videos very professional dude and informative!! look forward to what you have coming.
I like these top 10 lists of vintage DC & Marvel Super Hero toys. With the SpiderMan list, I love numbers 3, 4, 6,8 & 10. I've been on a Mego kick since I heard that Mego plans to release 50th anniversary editions of the original Mego WGSH, so there's no surprise that most of what I love on your top 10 list are all the Mego entries. In addition, although they're not that great, I still love both the Mego Comic Action and Pocket Super Heroes of SpiderMan figures. They make me think of the vintage classic 1967 SpiderMan cartoon series. I also love the rubber SpiderMan figure by Ben Cooper. And I also love the AHI SpiderMan parachutist figurine. I never had the Remco Energized SpiderMan figurine, but I love the commercial. And the Mattel Secret Wars SpiderMan figure reminds me of both SpiderMan and His Amazing Friends series as well as the solo SpiderMan series, both from 1981. I wish Mego could have considered making an 8 inch SpiderMan with a removable mask. I think that would have been a great seller. Both the regular and the Web Spinning SpiderMan figures come to mind when I watch the big screen SpiderMan movies and hearing the Danny Elfman scored theme title. Great video list. :)
Nice!
Cool i just ask in you new video to make a Spiderman top 10 best vintage fijure and i discover i see it this video 10 monts ago!!! Cool videos!!
A few more I'd have added would've been
1) the Pocket Superheroes Spider-Man by Mego.
2) Bendy Spider-Man I vaguely remember but never had.
3) Die Cast metal 6"(?) Spider-Man figure. Great articulation for late 70's- early 80's.
Spider-Man Corgi helicopter and bike (bike had a wee Spidey figure too).
4) Spidey stunt bike, a 'pull back and release' feature motorbike again with Spider-Man figure that I had a shed load of fun with back in the early 80's.
Great vid, that Japanese Spidey looks amazing!
Your lists are so right on
I had the Energized Spider-Man from Remco, and the Energized Spider-Man Copter (which of course needed Spider-Man in order to function and was ridiculously awesome to my mind at the time. I still think it looks cool to be honest). Lack of articulation aside I remember absolutely loving them. I wish I still had them as the copter is ridiculously expensive now :(
Mego Spiderman has become even more iconic since Toyfare magazine used him to such good effect
Holy shit!!! A guy w muscles that likes superheroes??? =0
Man You have A huge collection
Great video! I'm not much of a Spiderman fan and not very familiar with pre-Star Wars era toys, but there were some interesting selections here. I wonder why they made figures so big back then?
Barbie originally set the industry standard for 12 inch figures/dolls back in 1959. This is why the first G.I. Joes adopted the same scale. From there, Mego and Six Million Dollar Man figures were mostly 12 inch in size, it was the predominant action figure size of the 1970s, that is until Star Wars came along and revolutionised absolutely everything!
Ah, thanks! I knew Star Wars set a new standard, but I couldn't figure out who set the initial 12" standard. I never consider Barbie as a major player but it makes perfect sense now.
Yes,mego was the dominant toy company n the 8" figures were so much fun to play with. There costumes were amazing n why still they are prized
Did not know about the Japanese Spiderman figure and cap action Thanks !
AWESOME VIDEO BROTHER I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL !!!!! I JUST SUBSCRIBED, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK BROTHER
Thanks for tuning in my man!
Keep on the good work
I had a lot of these, but my #1 was the Funco web shooter. As a young boy, I had great plans of true crime fighting with it....good thing I never saw it through!
Spider-Man is the Marvel Superhero most True Believers can identify in as Spidey had problems with money/girls/ school. He is so relatable. The 1960s Spider-Man & 1980s Spider-Man cartoons were the best IMHO.
Of the toys on this list, the Energized Spider-Man was one I really wished I had. The Marvel World Playset was great! Only buildings representing Stark International & SHIELD are missing.
The Popy Spider-Man looks great! I think its a nod to the Japanese Spider-Man show.
What about the 1984 Secret wars spiderman?
As soon as I saw the word "Vintage" in the title, I clicked.
Check out my other videos, they're all about vintage toys!
You picked a nice selection of Spiderman toys and I just happen to have 8 of them in my collection.
You must have a good collection!
Yes, I have a big collection of superhero related items. My favorites are my mego.
Lee Reibsome I agree,the mego's r the best. I have a nice collection as well plus make my own customs. He had the best villains too!!
My top two were the Remco Spiderman Utility Belt and Funstuf Webshooter
The Remco Spiderman Utility Belt almost made the list. I like to choose a broad spectrum of toys and the utility belt was serisously considered.
Cool!!!
I want a mangler!!😆
Spider-Man toys in the 1970s! What can be better? There where so many companies that produced Spidey toys in the 70's, Remco, MEGO and Cemtoy! I divide my Spider-Man timeline into two eras, before McFarland and after. I stick mainly to pre McFarland and these toys really capture the essential Spidey of my youth. Best to you! P.S. even the Comic Action Heroes Mangler holds more interest to me than most of the ToyBiz Spider-Man stuff.
I agree, ToyBiz is well after my time and holds no interest for me!
0:00 is that Spiderman from the amazing spider man 2012 movie
The Mangler reminds me of the fire breathing dragon car from the first James Bond movie Dr. NO
Gotta ask why the Secret Wars Spiderman isn't on this list... It stands as one of THE best figures from the 80s of Spider to date....
Had 3 of the figures Engerzise, megos 8 (still have) and 12 inch sadly the other 2 figures (just mentioned was stolen with other mego figures like Captain Kirk , Superman, Frankenstein etc due to jealous neighbours...sadly hadn't the prove at the time ...miss having those figures since was a kid, but happy times when had most of figure range.
Have you done or consider doing top ten Marvel Toys , DC, TV show Toys ,
Love the video. I think Mego Pocket Heroes Spiderman Car with Hulk & Spiderman OR the comic action heroes version with Green Goblin & Spiderman figures are definitely worth a mention?
I wish that I have these toys
My favorite toy was the spider man suction cup web shooter. My mother was very against toy guns. So these were my substitute shooter.
Spiderman 2 super articulated figure is pretty dope.
That figure isn’t vintage
@@AnalogToys ill be back here in 35 years. Then ill show you.
Please tell me how the 8 inch Spiderman doll from mego ranks higher than the Ideal Captain Action Spiderman costume set that is valued at over 25 grand in mint condition?
I love your videos. Very informative for a fellow collector. But can we get just a bit more info? Like how does the web spinning Spider-Man work? I wanna know!
How about the web shooter with the Velcro with the rubber darts
Do green goblin please
And all mego and all captain action and all yours
Mego Was the best I had a bunch of the action figures from them I even had the chips action figure and even the Fonz
I had this toy!
I love that shirt! Can you please tell me the name brand so that I can track it down?
To me the 8inch mego is "iconic" n I actually still have 3 n my collection..The mego's were the creme'le de crem of there era,better than the 12inch g.i.joes. Slept under Xmas tree waiting on santa to bring my spidey, green goblin,n lizard !!!!
As far as superheros go, Spider-Man is second only to Batman, in terms of different monthly comics based on a single character. Although, if you count Batman's allies and rogues gallery (compared to Spider-Man's) there isn't much of a contest.
Clark Kent alter ego is hilarious
No Mattel's Secret Wars Spider-Man?
What about pocket heroes spiderman? I had him too and I could bring him to school.
You should do iron man
Mego toy is basically the titan action figure
I like old thing
I got the megu spiderman for 20 bucks lol😂
AND THE WINNER IS MEGO
And mangalar for display
Really disappointed that either the Energizer Spider-Man or the Spider-Man camera (which are good choices in their own right, I'm not arguing that) made this list but the Mego Pocket Heroes Spider-Man or Mego Comic Action Heroes didn't.... and I WAITED for the #1 spot just for one of them too...
Also, I'd have put in the 1976 Corgi Junior Spidercopter just for the sheer fun of it. But if you are going to put in only toys that are true to the character I can understand the Spidercopter not getting in.... but the Mego Pocket Heroes Spider-Man or Mego Comic Action Heroes... with their unfortunately placed right fist... that's got frustrated teenage Peter Parker all over it !
Danny GGG 😢😢
Huh?
And enargised spider man and I mean I wand all
Disagree with the Number one choice
Who do you have for number one?
and popys
