    A Holy Grail of Mego collecting. They need no introduction. Pete, Bruce, Dick, and Clark here in all their splendor. For those that do not know about these gems, the Alter-Ego sets were sold exclusively in the Montgomery Wards Catalog in 1974 and were sent to you by mail but the sets were only offered once and most young collectors never even knew they existed. Today these vintage alter-egos are very rare and one of the most sought after Megos in any collection. Even just one totally complete, without repro items, and with mailer, is nearly impossible to find. This complete set of four is the very set photographed for the Mego reference book and also for the Mego Museum. You absolutely will not find a nicer, more complete set on the planet.


    These were originally purchased for a kid back in the day for Christmas. Somehow, he never actually got them and they were mixed up and stored with the christmas decorations for years. When he was a man around thirty, his mother cleaned out the shed were the christmas decorations were and found them. She gave it to him, and told him how she had forgotten to give it to him twenty years earlier. He threw them in his closet where they sat for years. One day he was looking for stuff to sell because he wanted to buy a drum set. They were purchased by a collector who had them for some time and sold them to a well known collector in Italy. From there they went to Mego Museum member Lonnie Fisher and we obtained them several years ago. So the set has had a total of five owners to date. As far as we know it is the only complete set with original boxes and baggies in the World.

    We sure don't see these ever! This is a beautiful 1974 Mego Alter Ego mail in Dick Grayson/Robin. This beauty is in Great condition(See Photos). We Need to say that everything looks Authentic with the clothing but the head has a 1972 date on the back and we've seen conflicting information saying some have a 1972 date some are blank.

    We are listing a lot of these Megos right now so we won't have a ton of information on each listing but don't hesitate to ask if you have a question we will get right back to you.

    As with most of our lot listings this beauty has no reserve.

      Up for auction is a rare Montgomery wards exclusive 1974 mego Dick Grayson secret identity alter ego action figure outfit.

      The pants have a split with an attempted repair (see pic). The rest of the outfit is in pretty good condition. All snaps are there and there are no significant stains from what I can see.

      The pants, shirt, and shoes I found at an estate sale in greenfield, IN in a box with other 1970s toys.

      The coat/jacket I bought on eBay. The coat has a mego tag and not a maddie mod tag, I'm thinking maybe this is a later version where they realized they had the wrong tag in and switched it. When compared to the other Dick Grayson I have the jacket is also a little lighter in color (could be due to fading or exposure to sunlight). The fabric, stitching and buttons are all consistent with the other Grayson I have.

      These don't come up for auction on eBay that often, maybe like once a year. I know because I've been watching since I found my first set in 2011. That is why the buy it now is pretty high.

      Don't be afraid to shoot me an offer. All reasonable ones will be considered. I usually don't accept offers in the first couple days so people actually get a chance to see it.

      I will be listing parts of outfits for Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent later this week. Check out my other vintage action figure listings.
