MM is for Miricleman, no Marvelman, no Miri . . . Doh!

Or; what Carol McCaptainface looked like before her Hollywood-funded transition!

I remembered these shots were in the 'follow-ups' folder and thought they'd make a good (the best) follow-up to the Phidal set! Courtesy of Brian B we have the proper, pre-op' Marvel Man! There's not much I can add Blurb-wise to Brian's mail;

"Attached are photos of only the second Lego style figure I ever purchased.

Maker is unknown, so not a licensed item. He's more Miricleman than Marvelman who I loved as a kid but as there were no Marvelman figures to own unless you were adapt at Plasticine I had to have one.

He's shown with suitable feats of strength on Marvel Comics reprint of his adventures. The shot with Bender gives the size with a Dinky Pillar Box for comparison."

What I would add though is that a subsequent search leads to the eBay seller Onlinesailin (OLS) and there is one available here; 254326065503, and that this, being such a 'professional' sort of conversion, with batch duplication, would seem to be what the die-cast guys have been contending with for years, a 'Code 3', that is something of a factory-manufactured appearance which is really home-made, 'garage' or after-market, yet has commercial 'legs'?

There's a mass of it going on in the Playmobile-world as well; Carthaginian conversion kits, colonial pith-helmets, vinyl-graphic sticker sets, heat-set transfer sheets, resin replacement parts &etc.

Footnote; most of you will know but for those who don't; Code 1 is a/the factory product, Code 2 is a commissioned promotional, premium or factory-sanctioned batch-conversion.
