Mego Lapel Pin

I bought a large lot of old Mego parts and figures and in them was a Mego Corp lapel pin in a little bag stapled to a small square card with Mego figures on it. Anyone familiar with these or know the origin? Old? New? Repro?

Thanks!

I threw one up on eBay to see what happens, but you can take a look and see the pictures of what they look like. Still wondering if anyone knows the history on them...

Thanks for the info Scott!

I'm the guy that made them. I had 100 made up by an ad specialties company about ten years ago. They were shipped to me in those little plastic bags; the cards were actually business cards that I designed for myself using a scan of an old Heroes World ad. I just cut my info off so I could use the art as packaging. At the time, I think I sold them for around $5 each plus shipping. They're long gone, and I'm not even sure I thought to save one for myself, so it's definitely a rare piece. Good luck with your auction!

WOW! Never thought I'd find the guy that made them, too cool! Thanks for all the info Steve, I think they are awesome. I had 2, I'm going to leave the one up on eBay and keep the other one put away.

So much cool stuff and interesting history for items produced out of the Museum over the years.

I've got one of those. They're really nice, and I toss it on my blazer or jacket regularly.

Buying some TOYS? Use these nifty links to help support the Mego Museum!
