Only eight elastic rubber Mego figures were produced. Decades later, these toys are some of the rarest collector's items on the market. Mego stretchy toys featured superheroes like the Hulk, Batman, Superman and more. The Mego elastic Batman can be worth up to US$ 15,000 in new condition and in the original box.

Batman stretches to several times his length, just like a Stretch Armstrong toy. Mego made very few of these toys due to a lawsuit that Kenner threatened, accusing Mego of stealing their idea. As a result, Elastic Heroes were super rare, and that rareness was increased by the fact that the toys broke much more quickly than Stretch Armstrongs.
