New Mego Acquisitions? Got any?

Just incredible Bill, that's definitely a major prize.

That has to be one of the nicest cards I've ever seen of that one, not there have been that many mind you. Much congrats Bill.

Thanks guys, it's one of the most prized possessions in my collection. The bubble has been resealed down the right hand side to a very high standard, you'd almost miss it if you didn't know. As far as numbers are aware, I only know of one other that was sold in the UK 4 years ago for $160 (I still can't believe that). Does anyone else have any ideas as to how many are out there?

What a beauty of a card. It has to be one of the nicest I've ever seen. I love it.

Amazing stuff.

I'd never thought I'd find Megos at a flea market again, but yesterday was the day.
I picked up two Star Trek aliens in good shape: The Gorn and the Neptunian.
I already have these, but at $15 a piece, I'd be a fool to pass them by, if only for trading purposes...
Only down side: the guy was a smoker.

A little bit further on, a guy was selling assorted figures like smurfs, stuffed in...yes, empty vintage Mego boxes. He didn't know why the heck I'd want just the boxes, but I got them for $01.25 a piece.

Sometimes, you do get lucky...

Wow! Those two for $15 each is awesome. A ziplock baggie and some bounce sheets will fix any problems with those guys.

You'll have to explain to me what a "bounce sheet" is?

You'll have to explain to me what a "bounce sheet" is?

A dryer fabric softener sheet, they are very pungent and will adhere to the fabric on the figures.

Congrats on scoring Gorn and the Neptunian for $15 each!

[Collect 'em all!]

I've found a Bounce sheet at a flea market before, but never been lucky enough to land that good deal on any nice Megos--awesome score, Gorn Captain!
