Vintage 1970's MEGO DOLLS AD : Magnetic Batman & Robin

Here's a blast from the past some of you might recognize. This is an original comic book advertisement for the, now classic, 12 1/2" MAGNETIC BATMAN & ROBIN Dolls made by Mego Toys. The weird thing about it is that it's all comic book art work & it doesn't have a photograph of the actual toy. If you're a Mego Fan then be sure to visit our archives ( located at the right-side of this blog ) to see many more stories & photos of Rare Vintage 1970's Toys. We also want to recommend a great website called MegoMuseum for even more information. We have a link to them on our BAT-LINKS page ( the link button is on the top right-side ).

I remember these! Batman's costume was gray and that weird '70s mouthwash blue. Kind of a novel concept.

Yeah, I thought the Mego Collectors would love this wacky piece of history. The blue/grey outfit is mt personal favorite.

By the way, cool avatar pic of Robin!
