    The cheapest Mego I found in the wild was a Wizard of Oz Wizard, almost new at a second hand store for .79 cents. He was missing his shoes and hat. I couldn't pass him up.

    Yep, That's the place. Pretty much the last weekend flea market style place I know of. Lots of expensive antiquey stuff, but some toys and records and stuff from time to time. I left behind some Mego Trek figures for ya!

    Man, They seen you coming on that deal. Nice snag!

    I bet you wish you could "turn back time".

I figured $20 a piece for the apes was an ok deal as the repros are that. The AJ box is ok shape, has small repairable rip at the top, but I'm not a "minty" kind of guy so I'm cool with it.

    I've found lots of great stuff there over the years. It used to spillover into the former dirt-mall where the Rainbow, Harvey's and Metro is now. I found a handful of Comic Action Heroes, the seventies Marvel Superheroes tin lunchbox and thermos, plush seventies Artoo Detoo, and Chewbacca, and 12" vintage Star Wars figures there for a steal over the past decade. Of course there some some weeks where there was nothing at all, but that's the thrill of places like this.

    I found a Zombie Ponch and Jon for $5 each last week.

    Great feeling to find them in the wild.

    Nice! I'm in Toronto too and the only affordable Mego I ever found here was a nude Cher doll, which I did buy - so there, Tim!

    If I ever see any in comic stores or flea markets they're insanely priced. The best and cheapest one's I've found have been in antique barn type flea markets in the U.S.
