I'm very happy with what I picked up, a boxed POTA Throne, a T1 Spidey in a fantastic condition original box (I've been really neglecting my ambition to finally complete my boxed WGSH collection, so I'm trying to jumpstart it), a minty AHI Wolfman, a nice Tomland Cyclops (the only Tomland I had as a kid, so big nostalgia rush here!), some Mattel BSG figures, plus a pile of great 70's Marvel comics to put in my spinner rack. Thanks to Mr. Huckabone, Berto (Blue Meanie), Charlie (Megogeek) and Chris.
I hate when the vendors have to do all that repacking!
How thoughtful! Nice haul, wish I had the space for this stuff, it pains me I have to pass on a lot fo the great nice stuff being produced because I have no where to put it.
Due to a previous commitment, I was only able to attend on Friday -- and I deliberately brought a fixed-amount pocketful of cash (next year, those plans will be severely modified). While my goal was to be frugal and purchase only those items I cannot live without, I spent every penny.
My initial purchase, and the personal windfall of the day, was a boxed Brick Mantooth figure.
The remaining items I purchased were varied and (individually) were all tremendous bargains. These included several loose broken/incomplete bodies (including a Lion rock and AHI), five monsters (Dracula, Wolfman, Mummy, and two Frankensteins), two replacement neck plugs, a 12" Hulk, a Vulture body suit (sans wings) and a resin Kilowog head.
Freebees include a small pile of Mego Museum cards and keyrings --

I must have wandered the Dealer Rooms more than 20 times -- the dealers were in a constant state of set-up, and every pass revealed at least one newly pulled-out item. At one point, I decided to take a break and have a drink at the bar (along with my Mego-Me Self) to give the dealers more time to pull out additional wares. Later, of course, I rued the decision to use valuable cash for that beer. And for the tip.
Awww Heck Who am I Kidding... Its all about the Vintage Mego!!!

As I have multiples of every WGSH; there were Boxed ones that still eluded me... Thanks to the Ligotties we can cross Robin, Wonder Woman and Green Arrow Off the list.

This might not be to other people but the Emerald Archer in a box was a GRAIL piece to me... I have all 3 Versions of ARROW but now I finally have him Boxed.
