Mannix: Two Face Monsters

[northwinds]

Look at the waist and legs!
The one Phillinley has looks like this Two-Face Monster is based on:




To me the loose one above seems older.

Okay, to me it seems pretty similar to these 2 guys on the left

Nice find! Which line and manufacturer did that one come from?

[northwinds]

The line is called Two-Face Monsters. There is no manufacturer mentioned on the package. Only Made in China.
On the back of the package 4 different are pictured. I have 3 of those moc.

Hrm, not I just have to find the other four two-headed counter parts in motu style
The guy I got it from said it was from his personal collection he had as a kid and he lived in the midwest, so it was a U.S. sold product at least.

The moc's I have carry a sticker from a Dutch Toys importer that (still) is based in a town about 30 km from where I live. The person I bought them from, had purchased them in the early nineties.

Hyja I wanted to add this thread on an unknown Motu knock off, it resembles the Two faces devil line, made by an unknown manufacturer that can be found on:

secure.adrentech.com/AFRX/

Except the body sculpts are different. They probably are from the 90's, I'm more into the 80's.

I got the offer from someone to buy these, they are MOC and including shipment they would cost me about $9 each, dunno if that's a good deal or not? What would you guys say?

If I might buy em I'll post clearer pictures and, any info I can find on the card.

[THE KNOCK-OFF MESSIAH]

these are actually pretty recent and have even been carded with a masters of the universe type backcard. there are about 10 different ones maybe more. all using wrestler bodies and pretty decent heads. the others i saw came with nicer weapons much like tmnt style.

[10incher]

Those are pretty cool figures, I also like the artwork on the card. I say go for it!

[daltron]

They're cool but, $9.00 seems like too much for something that recent.

[Ghouldrool]

Excellent thread, I have these to contribute:



The two on the right are from a line called Two Faces Monsters, and feature two faces on each head that you can flip.

The one next to that looks like a knock off from Extreme Dinosaurs, but uses the same body as the ones above and the shark dude in the other pic.

Then we have a POTA knock off that we now know comes from an oh so grammatical series called Apes Attacks. That's all I have so far, but I'll be on the lookout to expand this little collection.

Great figures guys!!!

[soundwave]

what is this called?

[rocklord74]

Here's the pictures of my favorite Mannix line of all time, Two Face Monsters. This is what got me into collecting Mannix figures in the first place. There is three different sizes in this line. There is the larger ones that are five and a half inches tall and come in two different color variations. The smaller ones come in at five inches tall. Then there is the super elusive roto-cast one that comes in at a whooping nine and a half inches tall!! I hope these pics help other collectors out that are thinking about or already started collecting this line. It is a fun line to collect and I'm more then happy to answer questions. I hope you enjoy the pics as much as I had taking them.

Last but not least the 9.5 inch figure.

Size comparison

[figurecollector]

I did not realize there were size variations. I like the devil faced ones best.

[skullbooska]

Man... So jealous of that collection. Amazing!
Are the heads of the 5" smaller ones in same proportion as the regular sized ones or are both the head and body different size?

[figurecollector]

I meant to ask also, what is that platform they standing on?

[rocklord74]

Thx skully, and both the head and the body of the small ones are different size. figurecollector, the stand I'm using is called Astrolite. It's from Hasbro way back in 1969. Here's a pic of the Fountain I built with the lights off and the Astrolite on. It's like a Litebrite but you build structures instead of pics.

[figurecollector]

That's pretty cool. I don't remember seeing anything like it before.
