Secret Wars European released figures

[10incher]

I am currently working on the Secret Wars section of the main Website and am in the process of taking pictures of my collection for it.

What many of you may not know is that 3 figures were released near the end of the line in Europe only. They are Iceman, Elecro and Constrictor. I own a loose complete Iceman and will have a pic of him up on the site fairly soon.

I would have had Constrictor but a few years ago a seller from France took my money and never shipped him. I still remember her user ID, Pegbeb.

i found out about these in like 91-92 and i lost my mind. i saved up 40 bux to buy a iceman from a comic shop in queens. of course i ripped him off the card and had to play with him. he sat proudly as one of my fav pieces until my little brother "inheritated" some of my toys...toys i never saw again.

I am trying to hold out for these loose complete but they don't come around to often. Your right, they are pretty expensive MOC. Maybe I can find them on a damaged card so I can rip them out of the package. ;D

Believe it or not, a Dr. Strange figure was "made"

Here is the link to the site:

Looks like he made a Clea figure for the Mego world

Thought it would make an interesting contribution

A carded set of Secret Wars figures was one of the first packaged toy sets I worked on in my early days of collecting. Back then I was still able to find carded Dr. Dooms on clearance in Kiddie City infact! Anyway, Constrictor proved to be the figure I searched the longest for. Granted back then I was relying on local comic stores and comic/toy shows to assemble the set. ;^) Anyway, I'm glad to see that collectors here appreciate this line.

Were there any vehicles or playsets designed for Secret Wars that weren't produced in the US? I always felt that SW had some of the most imaginative vehicles (and I always loved the Tower of Doom).

I want to start some new lines and really like Secrets Wars.
I had Black Spiderman and Electro as a kid.

A great bootleg truck was available in France, pictures for you guys

Those pics are awesome, thanks. That van definetly would have been pretty cool.

Ive been trying to collect loose and carded sets of secret wars myself over the last few years. I have the majority of the figures but so far I just havent found a deal good enough on the 3 European figures to get me to buy them.

Cool truck, though those window decals of the heroes are just way to funny!

Good stuff, thanks Lenzy
