Thread: Rare 1970's Mego Employee Photo

  1. #1

    Rare 1970's Mego Employee Photo

    This recently unearthed photograph shows a trendy 1970's MEGO employee sitting on a stack of ready to ship Star Trek Tricorders. The employee, identified as Ed Daniels, reportedly still dresses in the same manner today as he did back then....He has simply been unable to cope with the loss of his job at Mego since they went bankrupt.

    Brace yourself before looking at the photo below....it will certainly tug at your heartstrings as you long for this bygone era........

    Well done, Dan

    Wow, Ed Daniels in the flesh, he's a living legend.

    Rumour has it he was the one who passed on the star wars license, did the scaling on the 12" Captain America, retooled rocket tubes to be square and while sneaking a quick doob in the warehouse, limited the number of Star Trek aliens out there.

    I wonder if he's still kicking.

    The smudges on the photo CLEARLY prove this to be authentic.

    Maybe we can pair it up with a picture of infamous Mego employee, Hank Markastone, sitting amongst a bunch carded Robins.
