The Mego Corporation was founded in the early 1950s by David Abrams and was mostly known prior to 1971 as a producer of dime store toys.
Starting in 1971, Mego began purchasing license rights to a variety of successful motion pictures, television programs, and comic books, and started producing lines for such works as Action Jackson, Planet of the Apes, Star Trek, the Wizard of Oz, along with the rights to various superhero characters, which was their most successful line.
Mego also created the Kresge style card (named for the Kresge store chain, for whom they were originally produced), now commonly referred to as the "Mego Bubble Card." This style of card placed the clear plastic bubble containing the action figure in the middle of the card.
By 1979 Mego were concentrating extensively on figures of a larger scale than that which they had used to establish their name within the industry and the hearts of children around the globe.
The rust-red outfit, in which Mego chose to clothe their figure, is of only of the most vague likeness to Holly's laboratory attire if indeed it is this costume that they were intending to duplicate in miniature.
The figure's body is that which was used for many of Mego's female figures of this period lacking much of the articulation of their male counterparts.
