NECA's new line of The Original Superheroes is a line of 7-inch scale figures that will pay tribute to the classic comic book heroes & villains. The first series will be based on the King Features comics and includes the classic Flash Gordon, Ming the Merciless, and The Phantom we saw back in the Summer during the NECA Comic-Con online.
The three heroes will feature alternative head and hand options, as well as character-appropriate weapons and effect parts. They are packed into a window box and numbered indicating a longer run for the collection beyond this trio.
The figures are expected to arrive in January 2022 and pre-orders are now open at NECA stockists.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
