Hi, I saw today on a flea market a 8" doll dressed in a Captain America suit. At first sight the suit looks like the Mego Captain America one, but when I pick up and check the figure I found this: - The suit is a 2 part (pants and shirt) and the blue is darker. - The suit have a label that reads something like "Hasbro 197? The World of Love". - The doll is marked Hasbro 197? (I don't remember the year exactly). I didn't pick up her because I don't collect female dolls (except for the Mego Superheroes) but it makes me very curious about that. Anybody knows something about this???

Sounds like an interesting figure. How much were they asking for it?

Hmm, sounds like a doll that has clothing on it from a different line. Here is a link to the Hasbro World of Love dolls: www.barbigirl.com/love.htmI wonder exactlly where the costume is from?

Batman-Mego should've stuck with the removable cowl and done away with the "oven mitt" gloves and gone with the later gloves similar to Mister Fantastic and Bruce Wayne attire.
Robin-The removable mask should've been kept. Robin should've been resculped to a 7" scale(to match the Teen Titains" line. The same goes with his "gloves". Mego should've given him tights(like what Burt Ward wore in the TV series) and Dick Grayson's attire
Captain America-Removable cowl, red gloves, and redone sleeves. Steve Rogers' attire
Iron Man-removable helmet("Hello, I'm Tony Stark and I need a drink.") and maybe a business suit and briefcase
Spider-Man-removable mask(could've been made with the same material as Batman's cowl), red gloves(similar to Mr. Fantstic's), throw in the Peter Parker secret ID attire
I know Mego probably didn't have the money to do all this, but it might have worked had they attempted. Too bad they didn't give the Pocket Super Heroes the same articulation as the 3 3/4" Buck Rogers, The Black Hole, CHIPS, and Dukes Of Hazzard lines.

Here's my list(8" scale) Flash Bucky Doctor Doom Ghost Rider Doc Ock Nova Green Lantern Johnny Storm(in his FF uniform) Lex Luthor Power Man Iron Fist Nick Fury(not really a super hero, but he hung out with a few) Moon Knight(Too bad Mego was DOA by the time his book came out) Machine Man Two Face The original X-Men(even though that book was actually facing cancellation at the time) Ant Man Scarlett Witch Vision Dazzler Ralph Hinkley(This would've been an interesting addition. The Superman creators & DC would've really gone insane, concidering the lawsuit they filed against ABC, which I thought was pointless.)

I do agree, never really cared for the oven mitt gloves, they should have made them out of a knit material. They really did a great job with Thor though, thank god they never moulded his helmet as part of his head.

Would liked to have seen a few of the X-Men, and why no Green Lantern or Flash? Most of the JLA could've been done (Atom, Hawkman) rather than the few second rate characters they chose like Isis and Mr. Mxlplyxcsidisf... (or whatever his name is).

LOVE this line! I remember having Hulk, Falcon,Batman,& Conan when I was a kid (around 4 or 5) Also snagged the 12" magnetic batman and 12" Hulk from my friend. Lost all of them. Around 15, I came across some incomplete Megos in the comic shop. Over priced, but still picked up another Conan, Lizard, Cap, Hulk,Thing, and Green Goblin....Once more all lost over time. A few years ago, I've started on this line again....They are NOT wandering off this time!
