    What mego are you "obsessed" with?

    What Mego are you fixated on, have collected multiples of, etc.?

    For me, it's Catwoman and Green Arrow--I've bought several of each, trying to find unfaded costumes.

    I know a collector here who has perhaps 30 Mego Spidey figures, and that made me curious about collecting habits or preferences.

      By quantity alone, Soldier Apes!

      I have about 50 unique specimens… the more I search the planet, the more undocumented and oddball variants emerge.

        Dinah mite and her variants. Especially the Rood Speel supergirl from Europe. The face is a bit bland, but the construction is excellent.

          Green Arrow. I love the figure (more than the comic book character) and since there are high-quality repro parts available (and have been for about 10 or 12 years, now) , I went through a phase of cleaning up, fixing up, and completing stray ones I could find on eBay. A "Green Arrow Rescue", as it were.

          These days, one could do the same thing with Iron Man. Not quite with Thor. Might have been just as obsessive with either of those two had the parts been as good or as easily obtained when I was in that phase.

            ^I have a vintage GA, an FTC GA, and a hybrid Doc Mego/Mattel GA. I like him, too!

              ^ He really is the high-point of Mego "in full stride", don't ya' think? Kind of like how car folks with a Chevy bias feel about the Chevy Bel Air from 1955-1957.

                    I'd intended on getting a Rood for a custom, but then I nabbed a spa Dinah.

                      I seem to have more figures of Robin loose, boxed and carded for some reason.

                        I bet you even have a nice Ledy version. I never got into a lot of variants, I picked one version I liked and stuck with it--though I do have both Mxy Sculpts.

                        But there is something very satisfying about seeing a variant grouping of all one character.

                            I'm not sure which Mego I'm specifically obsessed with...I have multiple Batmen and Robins of course. And two Catwomen for costume differences. I guess Batman related-stuff in general? But that's my life, pretty much.

                              I'm not obsessed with any Megos, but I guess I have more different kinds of Mego Spideys and Supermans compared to other characters.
