I just bought 2 yesterday. 1 on a badly beat up card. "the Magnificent." I am going to open him. And the other was loose with all his clothes but no weapons, but I don't know his name nor do I know when these came out. The package is nice, but offers little info. Anybody have these and what are their names. And when the heck did these things come out? BTW these are realy nice. they look like Mego and they aren't that all cheap looking.

The line was called "The Magnificent Pirate" and your card will tell you as much as I learnt from mine. No individual names as far as I know, but they were put out sometime in the 80's. Great little line if you can find them cheap

I guess I misread the card. I thought the card said pirate and his name was the magnificent, my mistake. thanks 10incher for the info. I paid a buck a piece on them. I felt they looked like they came from the 80's. They look to good to be recently made. out of curiosity, What else did Paco toys make?

Paco did a bunch of lines: click meDino Warrior and one or two others command big bucks but the Pirates and Western are not so bad ad there are some less articulated versions of Magnificent Wrestler about that can be had cheaply. Btw; I'm not 10incher

Here's a pic of some carded Paco pirates I picked up awhile ago.

Cool collection. Always loved the clothes' colors on these guys. Never owned one. Are they GI Joe-sized or smaller (since they're carded, not boxed)?

They are 8" like Megos. I never heard of them before I picked these up. The plastic around the neckline of the torso is crumbling on a couple. I've seen this happen with Tomland figures too. They are pretty good looking, it's hard to go wrong with pirates. I love the peg legs & hooks. The link in Gort's post shows all the Paco lines. Really cool stuff. The dinos are sick!
