I recently moved and as I was traveling across states I randomly stopped at some antique shops. in Illinois I found this nine inch Mighty Mouse gem that I just couldn't pass up.
dont think i would be able to pass that up either . i will have to see about looking up that in my toy guide . whats the story with the 2 monsters in the background ?
the only other vintage mighty mouse vinyl/plastic figures I've seen were the soap dispensers. I'd love to see if any other vintage pieces exist. The monster in the background is a demented cookie monster I sculpted and fired up. it's based on a series of ink sketches I did a few years ago of my interpretations of Sesame Street characters. Note the terrified cookie.
If i am not mistaken I think there was a hard to find red cape that came with the Vinyl you found - just an FYI.
The red cape would certainly finish him off right. I'll have to hunt for pics of a figure with one still intact. I wonder if it was a cloth or vinyl cape. TXS.
These are from the 1982 cartoon by Raplh Bakshi. Mighty Mouse, BatBat, and The Cow. I think these were part of kids meal.
Mighty Mouse somehow goes right to the core of my brain - great memories! I have just recently been buying "videos" of what I can find of vintage MM cartoons on eBay.
Crap! I just noticed your post of the Oghan bat mask Jim! I freaaagin love it! I'd mount that on my wall like a Bison trophy!
Oh man, I had a sick sick crush on Pearl Pureheart, Mighty Mouse's girlfriend! As a kid I thought she was pretty sexy!...ummm I still think she is pretty sexy!
You know, as a kid, I swept floors for Johnny Vita in hopes of being his apprentice when I lived in New York. Johnny Vita was Ralph Bakshi's background artist in Bakshi's early days which included the early Fritz the Cat & Spiderman series. I ended up moving to Cleveland!
