I have that set! I try to set them up on top of the DVD cabinet, but the kids always knock them down and play with them. They have withstood my 2 year old, so they seem to be pretty well made.

Greetings! I've been collecting the Equity Marketing figures for quite a few years...not the easiest task since they released most of the later villians outside of the USA, but Ebay prices have drastically dropped over the last year or so for loose ones. I just got the Mystery Mansion for Xmas 2010, which is the 2nd release of this playset...this time branded for the much smaller "Mystery mates" figurines (which are very out of scale to it since the 'Mates are 2.5 inch figs and the set was originally made for 4.5 inch figs) this is a pic with a bunch of the 4.5 inch figures for which the set was intended for:  This second release of the mansion is Blue/Green as you can see above, opposed to the first release which was purple-blue/Maroon, which was only released outside the US.  The Playset has also been re-purposed and re-issued in a modified form as a pirate's castle...also for the out of scale mystery mates. (they removed the upper house facade and replaced it with a more castle-like top)  If you guys and gals are interested, I wouldn't mind doing a series of posts (as time allows...stupid job and all that) with pictures going into much more detail about these lines of action figures from the last decade. |

Those are awesome!! I've had my eye on some figures for quite some time, but haven't gotten around to buying them.

They also made a few more: Charlie the Robot Phantom Shadow Tar Monster Glow in the Dark Phantom Racer Collecting scooby figures can be a bit confusing since they have come out from several different companies, in several different scales, and some have only been released outside of the U.S. In the picture I posted above with the haunted house playset, those are the ones that are articulated and are 4.5 inches tall. Most of the "baddies" do have glow in the dark variants available, like the phantom racer you list. Unfortunately the other three characters you list are not part of this particular line in this particular scale. There Charlie the robot figure, but it is part of the larger (around 6.5 inch scale) line. There was a battery powered bumper car with the Phantom Shadow molded as part of the toy that is close in scale with these 4.5 inch figures, but the shadow is not a separate removable figure unfortunately. Equity did a few packaged plastic statues in a line called "snap shots" and one of those featured the Tar Monster chasing Shaggy & Scooby. These are not articulated at all, but I believe they are close in scale with the 4.5 inch figures. If you guys are interested, perhaps at some point I'll type up an article on what I know about scooby action figures since I do have a decent collection of the various different lines and have researched them a bit to find out what is out there. |

That would be awesome, j3h! I have some of the figures in the picture above, but not all of them. I am running out of space for the Scooby stuff I own!! |
