    I'm as excited as you are dude. I'm just coming off the buzz of Mego North (which we moved from January) and I'm feeling the long winter until Mego Meet. Hoping the MegOhio guys can give me an excuse to make a road trip. How about Mego Bronx? 8)

      I know Vinny026 has been trying to to put something together for this area, Lord knows there are enough of us in the tri state area, I guess its all about Timing and time of year. Doc tried to put something together at Eternal Con out in Long Island but the Timing just wasn't there, it's the weekend right after Mego Meet, I went in 2013 and it was just ok, and last year was just ehhhh... If we were to pull it off it would have to be in the outer boroughs... The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens or SI, but Manhattan would be out of the question,Too Expensive even for me.

      But in the Meantime 253 days and counting lol

        There are stages of excitement for me. On that front, it's a bit early for movement. But it goes like something this...

        1-Annoucement of the event is made and I book the Hotel and buy my registration.

        2-Once I confirmed I send an E-mail to my bosses at work securing the days is advance since vacation time is not available to be entered until the New Year.

        3-New years comes and first chance I get my vacation is entered. Then the real countdown begins.

        My only concern is we recently merged with another company. Very little integration has happened yet, but I know that won't last. Hoping to get my days in before the craziness (right now expected to be February starts and it won't interfere with my plans.

                    Wait, what is this mego meet thing?


                    Lol

                    2015 could be challenging for me due to my job change and no vacation time. I'll do my best to come with Sean again, maybe carpool with Boss for fun. Fingers crossed time off work goes in my favor. I'd sure hate to miss it.

                          It's official - we're headed to Skokie!

                          For the past ten years, the annual Mego Meet made its home in Wheeling, WV. It was clear after Mego Meet 10 that maximum density had been surpassed in Wheeling and that a change of venue was in order. The move to Skokie, IL. will allow for easy access for those travelling by plane, as well as provide a myriad of options for

                              Oh yeah, I'm jazzed for this. I did feel like I adopted an unwanted city in Wheenling each Summer, but it's time to let them go. This is going to be a nice, fresh start to the Meet andd open up a bunch of new possibilities. It's quite a bit longer of a drive for me, but it will be so worth it. Of course having the Kruger Street basement for free was a nice setup, but this new venue will upgrade everything. And, having the show in the same place we are staying is the best thing we've ever done.
                              I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                              If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.
