Marvel Superheroes 1st action figure line

[10incher]

Does anyone collect the first line of Marvel Superheroe figures that were released in the late 80s & early 90s. Some of them are pretty cool such as Annihilus and Daredevil with his new costume. I remember seeing Deathlok in the stores for years after. For some reason nobody wanted him.

I saw a carded daredevil at value village for $5.99, I think it was the one on regent, in the glass counter.

This line was the reason I started re-collecting action figures again. It's hard to say "no" when you could buy them at $2 each! I think this was back in 1995. And I do recall a many Deathloks that had been marked down several times. Others that didn't sell well were the multi-jointed Spidey, parachute Spidey and Captain America. These were all in the three for $5 bins. (Where's a good time machine when you need one!) Ones I never saw in the store were Iron Man and Mr. Fantastic. I did just buy a Thor MOC the other week at a Rummage Sale for $2. ;D

I've been buying these here and there. They kind of bring a Marvel compliment to Super Power I think because of similar sculpting. So far I have:
Spider-Man(suction cup hands)
Captain America
Hulk
Silver Surfer(dull grey)
Iron-Man
Human Torch
Invisible Woman
Dr. Doom
Dr. Octopus
Annihilus

[THE KNOCK-OFF MESSIAH]

i had the first 2 series when they first got released. i stopped for a few years then in 2000 all toybiz marvel fig were 1.49 buy 2 get 1 for a cent. so i got alot of them. then a few years later i sold them all off my sister still has a few x-men figures. im sure there will be a day when i return to this line but i had to step away. a few of my favs from the lines were she-force and marvel gold stuff. like moonknight and marvel girl and falcon.and i loved the new mutant toys warlock was kick ass ;D

[10incher]

Some of those Marvel gold figures were pretty cool escpecially Iron Fist & The Vision.

[THE KNOCK-OFF MESSIAH]

iron fist was awesome i also liked marvel golds moonknight. i actually just started toying with collecting these and the spiderman animated figures. lets see how it goes

[wraith]

I was a huge toybiz freak & collected those exclusivily for years (super heros,X-men,New Mutants,Iron man,Fantastic 4,& pretty much any other toybiz marvel line. also the gold & other exclusive sets.)I've got 3 tubs full of toybiz stuff setting in my closet as well as 6 of the old crappy blow apart Sentinels.(Well, they were cool at the time, finally giant Sentinels to fight the X-men...& I had to have 6).

[THE KNOCK-OFF MESSIAH]

i was strong at day one but i just faded away from them due to far too many were released. but ill be picking them up from now on

[10incher]

I was at my local comic store over the weekend and they had a bunch of MOC Marvel Superhero figures from Toybiz. They wanted way to much though, I'm guessing the'll be on the shelves for another 10 years or so. Anyone know what the HTF figures go for from this line? I know they wanted like $15 for Daredevil at the store.
