    Other Than WGSH, Which 8" Lines Sold Well.

    Reading Benjamin's book really showed me a different side of the Mego Corp and made me wonder about several things. Its my understanding that WGSH sold amazingly well for them for most of their run. I also understand that Trek and POTA sold well, but for a more limited run. So how did the other 8" lines sell? I know the below characterizations are wrong, so please feel to correct-

    WGSH - extremely well until the late 70's
    Trek - well for approx. 3 years
    POTA - very well for approx. 3 years
    AJ - moderate
    Dinah Mite - poor-moderate
    Monsters - moderate
    West - ????
    Knights - poor
    Waltons - poor
    Robin Hood - poor
    Pirates - poor
    S&H - ????
    Happy Days - poor
    Our Gang - poor
    WOZ - poor-moderate
    CHIPS - ????
    Dukes - moderate-well

    Happy Days sold poorly...except for Fonzie apparently.

    I think Dukes sold very well. Mego was really surprised they sold like they did.

    I thought Dinah-Mite was kind of a flop? I could be wrong.
