Rimax Carvajal produced Superman, Batman, Robin, and Aquaman for Mego in Colombia. They are very difficult to find. I purchased my set in 2020 from a seller in Colombia who listed them for sale on Facebook .

​

The figures arrived from Colombia wrapped in cellophane stuffed inside a cutoff plastic coke bottle inside a cardboard shipping box.

Pictured Above: How my set was shipped from Colombia

Rimax Carvajal (Colombian) Superman
The hands on the Colombian bodies are very brittle and often missing. The plastic crumbles apart. All four of my figures were missing their hands when they arrived from Colombia and had to be replaced.

The Colombian figures are very similar to the Mexican figures produced by Lili Ledy.

​

The Rimax Carvajal (Colombia) and Lili Ledy (Mexico) figures are very different, however, from the figures released by Basa in Peru.

​

Rimax Carvajal (Colombian) Batman
The material used for the shorts and vest on the Colombian figures is very different than the material used for the Lili Ledy (Mexican) figures. The Colombian material is softer and matted. The black material used for Batman and Aquaman's shorts tends to fade.

​

Similar to late issue Lili Ledy (Mexican) figures, the Colombian figures have plastic belts. Whereas the Lili Ledy belts are a soft rubbery plastic, the Rimax Carvajal belts are hard plastic.

Rimax Carvajal (Colombian) Robin
Robin is the most unique of the four Colombian figures. Like the Lili Ledy (Mexican) Robin, he came with a green full body leotard underneath his red vest.

​

The Colombian (Rimax Carvajal) Robin came with green gloves and green boots, while the Mexican (Lili Ledy) Robin came with red gloves and red boots.

​

While the Peruvian (Basa) Robin also came with green boots, the Basa figure has green wristbands instead of gloves.

Rimax Carvajal (Colombian) Aquaman
In the U.S., all Aquaman packaging (window boxes and blister cards) was purple. In Colombia, Aquaman was issued in an orange window box!
