I have a real fondness for the Metal Men from Zee toys. These generic looking guys used to be sold at a local hobby shop when i was a kid. I remember being confused by the lack of a back story but they were just so neat looking.
As an adult i realized that many of the Metal Men share body part with the Mego Micronauts but the liberties taken with these figures is what is so cool. I guess wish I could afford to buy more, these guys can get expensive......
This was an odd little line of figures, but I had one of them (Radon), and it was a fun toy.
ReplyDeleteZee Toys was located in Long Beach, CA -- I lived there for years, and always wondered where the headquarters used to be.
Interesting, back when toys used to require imagination to run instead of electrons.
ReplyDeleteI remember those days. And I wish I had held onto my G.I. Joe's, they were the ORIGINAL's damn it!
