One Of A Kind Items In This World

By Essie Craft


Someone who is looking for one of a kind items will be pleased to know that they do exist somewhere in this world. Sometimes they are hard to find but a determined person will locate the product that they desire the most. Many of these gems are no longer in production since people often get tired of certain things as time goes by.

People who enjoy a good laugh are sure to like the new talking bird that will amaze everyone. Her name is "Polly" and she is able to talk and move her body in various positions. School children are always charmed by Polly's wise words while adults love her unique style. This is indeed a gift that will vanish after a short time. There are only a few of these mechanical birds available in the stores.

During the 70's and 80's everyone was talking about the good looking Mego superheroes that were in the toy stores. The company had decided to take advantage of the very popular comic book characters which were created by writers at DC and Marvel. The folks at Mego were living great lives while these superhero toys were on the market and they could have continued to have success if "Star Wars" had not eluded them.

Batman, Superman, Robin, Tarzan and Aquaman were some of the first DC action figures produced by Mego. After sales were so high Mego decided to make even more of these figures that were based upon other characters in these books. In a short while people could purchase Penguin, Isis, Joker, Catwoman, Supergirl, Batgirl and Wonder Woman.

Fans all around the globe wanted to have their favorite Marvel figures in toy form after the DC characters proved to be successful. Many stores saw the appearance of Thor, Captain America, Invisible Girl, Conan, Human Torch, Mr. Fantastic, Spiderman and The Thing. This bought great satisfaction to everyone around.

No one has ever duplicated these dolls since they stopped being in production. Some toy companies have tried to make copies but they were always too bulky or did not have the right body and face which loyal fans desired. They are indeed collectibles that everyone tries to obtain over the internet or other shopping sources. The Invisible Girl has proven to be the most famous female from this toy line.

Mego decided to make her face more realistic than the dolls that were made from the DC line. Batgirl, Isis, Catwoman and Supergirl all have the same baby face and they look nothing like the characters within the comic book. Susan Storm from "The Fantastic Four" is the only figure that actually looks like a mature female.

Reverend Ike knew all about one of a kind items since he tried his best to sell them on his television show. His good luck charms and rings were supposed to help individuals become successful. They were one hit wonders with his followers and average people in America. It is hard trying to find any of these jewelry pieces since the products have stopped being produced.
