Marty is on fire! And Doc is highlighted, too. (well, I guess it is a Long Island newspaper)

" 'In the Mego world, they just call me 'doc,' said Clarke..."

Warms my heart everytime. Marty and team...it's a big reminder that dreams really do come true.

They really did their homework for that story. A lot of meat to it. Fun read and some great pics too.

Good read. I like that they talked about different type of collectors and that it can range from very reasonable to very expensive. it is one of those collectibles that has following at different price points.

Interesting that in the photo, Marty is holding a gold shirt Kirk. Based on the skin tone of the face it could be an original, but if so it's the only vintage figure in the photo.

It looks like they’re making a distinction between Mego and Paul.

Great article.even WWE’s Ryder and Hawkins are in it

Really fun read. This is the part I found most interesting:

$1.6 billion

2018 U.S. sales of action figures and accessories, up 10% from 2017

Adult collectors account for as much as a quarter of sales.

Sales are up? That's cool. And I'd think adult collectors make up at least 25% of sales, maybe more.

I was in Wal-Mart on the weekend, Star Wars figures cost $18 here, I don't think many kids buy those.
