I found your article specifically by searching Google to try to identify the maker and to try to see if they are still out there in the world somewhere. <br /><br />The problem mine faced, was the weight of the metal. Batman was hooked by his glove spikes on to a tree and the weight pulled him loose and he landed on a root and snapped at the waste thanks to the heavy metal.Curtis Brownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6260472868678330696.post-15318682872796349612011-03-23T12:34:50.697-07:002011-03-23T12:34:50.697-07:00Completely new to me...

I wonder if that's just the way it was done back then...Doc Atomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756391204121061932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6260472868678330696.post-30394530668877435092011-02-21T05:06:22.538-08:002011-02-21T05:06:22.538-08:00I've been hunting him down for several years n...I've been hunting him down for several years now...too expensive on ebay though.

I had the Hulk, but he is long gone and never had Spiderman. I'd like to add them back into my collection. I remember the Hulk weighing a ton. I think these figures are very detailed. In some respects more so than their 8" inch counter parts.Johnhttp://batcavetoyroom.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6260472868678330696.post-42365111134183857202011-02-18T14:16:33.843-08:002011-02-18T14:16:33.843-08:00I never seen this before very cool.I never seen this before very cool.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151310331721753861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6260472868678330696.post-62598695394754836812011-02-18T09:57:58.346-08:002011-02-18T09:57:58.346-08:00never seen it!
