People's tastes can and do often change over time. A person might like a Mego Spiderman at first and then later on a Mego Urko might become their favorite. But that still doesn't mean Urko is a "better" figure than Spiderman. Which is "better" is still subjective to personal taste.
I think you are confusing history and criticism. I go to a museum to learn history and observe art for myself. I do not want or need it filtered through someone else. If I want to learn about a person's favorite toy or collection I go to their website. If I want to learn about Mego history I come to the museum. You could say, a museum is there to teach you history about a given subject. But not to interpret it for you and tell you what to think or how to feel about it.
My point before was that a guy can look at a couple of Megos for the first time without any prior knowledge and tell you which he likes best - that's fine, and I'm not dismissing his opinion - but I'm not going to keep visiting a website about Megos by that guy. I want to come HERE.
