Originally titled Twisted Mego Theatre, it predominantly featured 8-inch (200 mm) scale action figures made by the Mego Corporation (a line very popular in the 1970s, during the childhood years of much of the magazine's staff), and principally those based on Marvel Comics characters, such as Spider-Man ("Mego Spidey")[1] and the Incredible Hulk.
The artwork was done in the fumetti style by photographing toys on sets built by the magazine's staff, and using Photoshop to add effects and word balloons.
Twisted Mego Theatre debuted in ToyFare's 1996 Winter Special.
[1] Many early Twisted ToyFare Theatre strips featured several DC Comics characters, though an early strip entitled "The Super-Friends" featured Spider-man insulting the DC heroes for their ridiculousness.
[1] The television show Robot Chicken, which features animated action figures, directly sprung from Twisted ToyFare Theatre, as former writers Tom Root and Douglas Goldstein are head writers for the show, along with fellow Twisted ToyFare Theatre alumnus Matthew Senreich.
