The Hero Household


With all this buzz over SpiderMan and Heroes lately, I was happy luck to find this item at one of the many community garage sales around here this past weekend. This one guy had a garage full of cheap Chinese junk, resincast skulls and faeries, pocket knives, toys, etc... My little son picked this one up, I looked closer, and had to have it. No licensing, China is like the wild west of manufacturing. Note the straight image grab in the bottom right from Batman promo materials, and who the heck are these other heroes? Are they brothers? Is this a whole clan of Spidermen?
The figures themselves have little LEDs in their chests with a button in the back to light them up. Since they went the extra mile puttin LEDs in them , they skimped on the arms and legs, from the back, they are hollow, only the front is solid. Anyway, they are a welcome addition to the Smith household...
