Mars Toys figures Kato and GH

Post by Lou Szabo »

On Facebook, Mars Toys posted the question who’s interested. From the Pictures, they may pursue Kato first (bigger draw)

This would be very interesting indeed, I would LOVE a GH to go with my Enterbay Kato.

Be great as long as they do a GH too-- we have plenty of Kato figures already.

I would be all in for 1/6 scale GH figure. I can take or leave Kato. That said, if mars produced a Kato figure, I'd only consider purchasing it if is properly scaled to GH (unlike 1999's Captain Action Kato).

The Green Hornet fans I know feel the same way. They really want GH.

When my Japanese "Medicom Toy Corporation" Kato & the Green Hornet turned up, I was discouraged that they were 9" tall, and thus out-of-scale with the "Figures Toy Company" 8" Mego-style figures.

Cannibalising a retro Mego-style Captain Pike (from "Star Trek"), I was able to make my Kato more in scale with 8" Robin and 9" Green Hornet. Kato's head was swapped out onto Pike's body, the hands painted shiny black, the jacket sleeves slightly shortened with hemming web, and his tiny cuff buttons moved.
