      Wow, not a lot of love for Penguin.

      I'm biased in my love of this figure & character--he was the first Foe I received, and one of the few Megos I had doubles of, besides Batman.

            It was a great one. When Diamond or whoever it was released the repro a few years ago, I considered buying it.
            I decided against buying the new repro, and holding out for a vintage one.
            The 70s child inside me needs an original!

            I would never have had this many vintage Megos if it hadn't been for the Museum. In Belgium, they released hardly any WGSH, now I have all of the Marvel Megos, except Conan. That pesky barbarian.
            MM members got me my Thor, Iron Man, and at prices I could afford.

              What about the 8" action figures?
              Man, Arkansas wasn't "cool" in the 70s.

                The fat body Megos aren't getting any love in this poll.

                I would have liked a Romulan too. I didn't even know it or the second Aliens wave existed until years after I stopped getting Megos.

                  And Uhura was it because she was a "girl"?

                    That's the one that I wanted first but my dad got me Aquaman instead.

                    Thor
                    For some reason my kid brother had Fonzie and he didn't collect or play with Megos. Batgirl was the only Super-Gal that I didn't have.

                    Mugato
                    I was never a fan or the Hulk or Thing Megos because of their size. I always thought Mugato looked cool.

                          They didn't. It's just something as a child I wanted them to make for the ST figures. Though they did apparently plan one for STTMP but ended up not releasing it.
                          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                              Yeah it sucked. And still has it's moments. Seriously though as a kid as far as I was concerned (and knew) Batman, Robin and Superman were it. I didn't know there were more. I had seen the KISS commercials on TV and immediately busted out the letter to Santa. I think it was October when I saw it... The Superman figure I saw an ad for in a catalog of some sort. For whatever weird, blinders on point of view I never noticed any of the other Mego's that may have been in the ad.

                                Scott,

                                What about from your childhood?

                                My last mego was probably 12 inch Spidey. Not sure though.

                                5. What were your 3 least favorite Megos? Myxy, Cheron, Uhura
                                Another vote for Mxy!
                                And Uhura was it because she was a "girl"?

                                No. It was because of the overwhelming desire to have Chekov and Sulu. I know they were not available when we were kids, but that didn't stop me from asking my parents or Santa for them. I also wanted a Shuttlecraft Galileo to defend from hostile Klingons!
                                I post in thy general direction!
