Mego Knock-Offs: Lincoln International Cowboy

Posted on June 25, 2024 by megohead1

Lincoln International Cowboy

This fellow arrived last week; it was an eBay auction spotted by my friend Rob Turner. Not only is he the product of Lincoln International (my favourite producer of Mego Knock-Offs), but he’s also a total mystery!

He’s the exact figure Lincoln produced under the “Thrill Seekers” name, a Mego Action Jackson KO. However, there is one slight problem: the Thrillseekers packaging doesn’t mention a cowboy outfit.

BTW the boots are the same as another Lincoln masterpiece, the infamous Mr. Rock!

So either there are more undiscovered Thrill Seekers out there, or there is possibly another Lincoln line we don’t know about, or some kid put this outfit on his Thrill Seeker figure. I hope it’s not the last one but it’s entirely possible. Mystery figures are the spice of this hobby to me, and I can’t wait to see what’s next. If anybody has any insight, please let me know. Of course, this came from the UK, which seems to have a special relationship with Lincoln.

Somewhere, I have a cowboy hat and a pistol for this hombre…

Lincoln Monsters Featured in Rue Morgue Magazine!

Posted on April 30, 2024 by megohead1

Lincoln Monsters Featured in Rue Morgue Magazine!

The latest issue of Rue Morgue magazine (on stands now!) features a gorgeous piece by James Burrell about the return of the Lincoln Monsters.
We even made the cover! Truly grateful for this wonderful opportunity!

ABOUT LINCOLN MONSTERS A vintage toy brand is rising from the grave! “Lincoln Monsters” is a new collaboration from White Elephant Toyz, Absolutely Retro and Plaid Stallions, who have joined forces to make dimestore retro monsters. The name is inspired by the legendary knock-off toy company Lincoln International. However, Lincoln Monsters reimagines the company as a 70s third-rate film studio, making exploitation and copying horror trends. Each Lincoln Monster release and creation will center around a fictional movie from Lincoln International Studios, premiering with The Evil of Count Dracula.

The 8″ Evil of Count Dracula figure will be on a type S body, with a look inspired by the past but retaining the LM house style.

Each Lincoln Monsters figure will come in a gorgeous solid box with artwork by Chris Franklin depicting the gorey poster for the movie made to cash in on Hammer horror. Like all good horror shows, this is a double bill as Lincoln Monsters will also release “The Power of Frankenstein,” featuring a stunning poster by Chris Franklin. “Our goal is to create well-made figures inspired by cheap knock-offs,” explains White Elephant Toyz Jason Schiermeyer who adds, “At a collector-friendly price point.” Subsequent releases from Lincoln Monsters will include original male and female character designs that cross multiple film genres from Science Fiction, Horror and Exploitation. The fictional Lincoln studio was known to dabble in Gothic Horror, Ozsplotation, Philippine Drive-In movies and Italian rip-offs.

The wait is finally over, Lincoln Monsters Pre-Orders are open today at

Good News, Everybody! The long-awaited series 2 of the Mego Museum Action Jackson cards are seeing print and distribution at Mego Meet 2023.

The initial sets will be given away free at Mego Meet 2023 as part of Power-Con. Portions will also be distributed to Museum members via volunteer distributors. Stay Tuned. Mego Meet is part of Power-Con 2023 with panels, freebies, kid’s custom contests and a whole lot more.

70s Superhero toys in Japanese Starlog – Mego, Remco, AHI and More!

Posted on February 25, 2023 by megohead1

I recently stumbled across this fantastic issue of Japanese Starlog, which was a lot like the US version, except its graphic design was way more exciting.
This particular issue has a feature on all the imported Superhero toys from the US you can buy. So the best way to describe it is like a Heroes World catalogue but from the future.

Mego Superheroes in Japanese Starlog

This page makes me weak in the knees and it’s not just the gem-mint carded Mego Riddler on display. Those Mego Comic Action Heroes’ deluxe sets with the Batmobile and Spider-Car are big favourites of mine. I also don’t have that AHI parachuting Superman.
