MEGO (HONG KONG) AND CENTURY 21 TOYS

Mego (Hong Kong) made a whole range of space toys, many having been covered on the blog already. With the discovery of the Century 21 LUNA LEN this week I thought it would be interesting to cover the now two known MEGO/ CENTURY 21 clones ( I am assuming that Mego copied Century 21?)

Anyone know of any other MEGO/C21 clones? And are there any other toys with that strange clear globe on the the rear of the Mego Space Tract Glider? And just what is a 'Tract'?

  1. Is there any evidence that C21 had any original designs?

    I get the impression that the Project Sword logo was simply applied to existing third party toys.

  2. There's the rub, if only we knew which they were and which are copies.
