Ideal Comic Super Heroines: Mera

a close up of my Mera's very rare and simple but perfect crown
for the character she represents.
Mera's pitchfork is the same one that Ideal used for it's Captain Action Aquaman
figure.
A closeup of my beautiful Mera dolls face. I think the Misty mold is perfect for Mera.
Mera ties in back of her outfit. Simple yet effective.
Closeup of material and design used in the Mera outfit.
Closeup of Mera's fins/shoes. I've seen many Mera dolls using Ken's green fins
as they fit well but Mera's fin's have a unique design to them. They are
impossible to find loose. This is the only pair I've ever seen loose for sale.

Above: If you asked me if I could only keep one doll in my whole collection it would most likely be Mera Queen of Atlantis. I'm not sure what it is I love about this doll but she's simple but perfect for the character. I guess my love of Mera started when I was young. I loved her appearances in comics and always wished to see more of her. She has almost disappeared in recently years with the exception of her great appearances in some Justice League Episodes in the first season. I was so happy to see her again. This doll represents the comic character very well from the time she was made. The Mera on the Justice League looked a little differently but not too much so. I've been told that Comic Heroine Super Queen Mera did NOT come with an alter ego. Jim from the Captain Action group on yahoo says he got the doll as a child and opened it up himself and no alter ego outfit was present. Mera's box is the only Comic Heroine Super Queen doll that does not mention an alter ego, which of course makes sense as she didn't have an alter ego. Ideal could have given her a different fashion to wear to her under sea parties but I guess not.

to see how Comic Heroine dolls differ from Ideal's Misty doll.

Right: Boxed Mera. Outfit is different pattern and is unmarked/untagged and looks different from my other Mera doll. Variation? Repro? Custom? Tie in back is also different but when seen apart they are very similar looking. If this is a custom outfit it's a good one. When I got it the seller thought it was original and I believe he was sincere. The doll is an original comic heroine doll that the hair has faded on, which is common on alot of Mera dolls :(
The crown and box are customs done by Ray Flores are very nice. You don't see her flippers but she has on Ken's green flippers I believe. See more images of this doll in bottom panel. She is the only Super Queens doll without an alter ego outfit.
