So, more than a decade ago I decided I was too obsessed with toys (especially Mego) and sold nearly everything I owned. It was probably the healthy thing to do. I never lost my love for Megos, and have always had my eyes open for them when out and about. A couple weeks ago I saw a case full of them at an antique mall. AND, they were reasonably priced. I walked out without them.... and thought about them constantly for the next two days. I went back, and the entire case was 20% off! I bought the mintiest items in the case (Joker, Torch, Spidey), and a decent item I never owned (Spider-car). So I'm back with my tiny little collection.
The thing is, the guy I sold my collection to never did anything with them. The last time we'd spoken was a few years ago, and he told me they were in the same box I'd sold them in (a fairly large box). I called him yesterday, and no, he's never touched them. I asked to buy back my collection. He's going to dig them out (This is a guy with a warehouse of comics and collectibles), and I'm waiting to hear back. I have a dream that he'll sell them back to me for little more than I sold them for.
Anyway, after a long hiatus I'm back
