Nice pics. Any new updates?

I have no idea how I haven't spotted this thread 'til now.
I have a photo of myself & my parents standing under the tree, and I'm holding Tonto in one hand, and the Lone Ranger in the other. That was a great Xmas!
Will see if I can dig it up, I think it was Xmas 1975.

Only one I have found so far is from the early 60's!

This is my first post here. I found this site when I was looking for classic toys on the 'net and was thrilled to find a forum. Too cool!

Anyway, here's a pic of me in the late 70's..I believe it is '78 but not 100% sure. I'm here with two of my favorite toys of all time - the X-Wing and Godzilla. I can not tell you how many characters from various toy / comic lines Godzilla killed.

Another reason I'm glad I found this site is to identify the other toy / action figure picture here. It was a 12 inch figure much like G.I. Joe and came with that orange vehicle. The vehicle was a VTOL plane, or a car and seems like it had pontoons to float on water. Anyone recognize it?

I'll have more to come. Sad to say there may not be many Megos there. I had a few, but not a whole lot.
