I wasn't sure where this thread belonged, but since the description of this section said "posed or altered Mego pictures", I figured I'd post it here.
If this is indeed in the wrong section, my apologies, and feel free to relocate it.
I just recently acquired a KISS Paul Stanley Mego in near mint condition.
It has never been removed from the inner card, and is practically brand new.
There is a small black dot on his nose, but this isn't nose rub, but rather stray paint.
I've found that it is virtually impossible to find KISS Megos with perfect face paint. I once had a Gene with stray white paint dots under his eye. Oh well, at least it isn't the dreaded nose rub down to the flesh colored face.
I'm trying to piece together a high grade set, and I figured the best route to take is to get them one by one, and find examples that have never been removed from their inner card.
It's tricky finding them in mint condition, without joint issues, costume issues, nose rub issues, and/or hair issues.
Anyway, I thought it would be cool to see everyone's KISS Mego line, original/reproduction boxes, and original/reproduction/custom instruments.
I saw that a user here creates custom Mego displays and thought how cool it would be to construct a custom display for this line that looked like their "Love Gun"/"Alive II" stage, all in retro Mego fashion!
Here's my Paul Stanley.
He came with the original box, which could use an upgrading. At least it was the correct box w/ the 88000/1 inventory code sticker.
Feel free to post your KISS line, I'd love to see 'em all!
