Commercial for Mego’s Black Hole Action Figures

I’m finding that it’s the older toys that better capture my attention these days, and seeing this commercial for Mego’s Black Hole action figures makes me ask: Why didn’t these sell better? They look like they would have been fantastic additions to a Star Wars collection in the late seventies/early eighties, and even though the film didn’t do well there had to be kids out there who combined all of these various product lines together.

These look like a hell of a lot of fun!
