    Another from my last trip to the Rose Bowl. He was missing his ray gun and sword but luckily I already had those at home.
    Captain Action was released in 1966 to compete with GI Joe. But instead of military outfits Captain action had super hero costumes such as Superman, Spiderman, and Captain America.
    Captain Action's youthful sidekick Action Boy is added in the last photo.

      Love how he looks like a mailman, or a guy at the malt shop ready to scope up a bowl of ice cream.... well how they were portrayed in 1960s advertising anyway!

      Thank you for that great comment Vincent. You did a much better intro than I did.

      And of course I have the Phantom.
      But I can't find his brass knuckles.

      Thank you very much Shawn186. Yes the Captain does get some criticism for his ordinary appearance. His head has to be a bit small so he will look normal with a mask. But he is a tad skinny.
