I'm new to Mego's. (Bought 11 at a garage sale last week.)
I was told by someone online that it is Shazam.
But he has a red suit....would he have blue briefs?

[z3zep]

Yes that is Shazam. The pelvis color (blue) is common to several figures.

Yup def. Shazam

[Smartassjeff]

Thanks. I did not realize many had blue. I'm having a great first experience. 11 figures for $5- with Removable Cowl/Mask Batman and Robin! (which I have discovered are desirable)

Something don't smell right.

Rmb and rmr for $5 bucks? Are they original?

[Smartassjeff]

Yes, original. These were a garage sale find! Also got a 20" tall 1978 Godzilla for $2 that I already sold on Ebay for $149. Only Hulk, Riddler, and the 12" Superman and Spiderman had clothes. The rest were naked. Some were obvious to me- like Penguin, Spiderman, Batman with painted cowl- but 4 I could not tell. They are all on Ebay right now, with Robin bidding at $102. : )

Halfdollarmark! Nice sales. Your $90 BIN on Robin is working out nicely for you. Wild find for super prices!

[Relic]

Would you be willing to sell the Hulk and Riddler to me for 10 dollars each? You can double your money.

[Smartassjeff]

Sold them BIN - $28 Hulk and $35 Riddler (with broken shoulder) + $7.80 ship each. I never heard of Mego until 10 days ago, but I'll keep my eye out now!

I don't mean to brag- but I'm excited. No one in the "real" world understands. Paid 50¢ for Six Million Dollar Man viewer and $1 for 1978 Mattel Hypnos. Sold them on ebay for over $50 each in less than one hour.

[Smartassjeff]

ALL from that same sale. Spent $12 total for 21 items.

[Iron Mego]

You got super lucky buying from the only people on Earth who don't check their garage sale stuff on eBay.

[osker55]

No try to be rude or anything but if thats the case its beginners lucky cuz i found my first ahi wolfman at a flea market for a buck never found another in the wild or anything guarnteed you wont find any more like that cheap

Now, now, don't be a smartass, Jeff...
