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.

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.

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!
