It's so weird that Mego didn't do a Ferrigno Hulk during the shows heyday. I guess they didn't want to pay for his likeness but, still, seems like an odd decision to me.

Not sure if I missed it but is there a date for the Punisher/Motorcycle which seemed to fly under the radar despite this being a great figure??

Same with the Reeve Superman. They held the licences to a bunch of properties that were highly popular in the late 70's, and yet they never seemed to monetise it.
