    My Prediction: Megos will be worth more than gold.

    As oil rises, the cost of plastic will as well. I see a day when plastic toys will come to an end. Megos will be worth millions to the young rich who would drewl over a historical plastic toy.

    So buy up the megos of the world and one day, we will rule the world!!

    While that would be great... rising plastic costs will just lead to the same overweight dudes huffing breathlessly to the wal-mart toy aisle for the new Star Wars 1 3/4" collection @ 9.99 each... then $20 + $10 shipping on ebay.

      I'm saving my Megos to convert them into oil, and then to gas to fuel my SUV.


      Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

          Sometimes, I start thinking
          (I know, I know, never a good thing)
          Here we are, trying to save the planet, and what do we do: collect by-products of oil (aka action figures). More cr@p to pollute the planet. Stuff that will not degrade over the course of hundreds of years.
          I really should stop thinking.....


          Btw: I've just started my collection of pine cones.... If anyone wants to trade....

                I thought the "clown-arounds" were already that, cause someone must've been smoking something when those were designed
                It's all good!

                  honestly, i think that buying vintage mego figures and parts is a great way to reduce our carbon footprint on the planet. reduce reuse recycle is all we do here!!

                      I'm sure you would like weed legalized James Actually a barrel of oil went down in price ($9 in 2 days) so I hope this trend continues. We really need to stop being so dependent on something that's not going to last forever. As far as megos becoming more valuable than gold, I'll sell all mine right now for their weight in gold. Come on Joe, believe in your theory and buy my megos. I bet I have about 10 lbs.
