    Megos not so much...I don't know why...perhaps because I know I get buy them back.

    I kinda regret selling both my boxed Remcos though...The Phantom and the Creature.

    But my biggest selling regrets has to definitely be my Superman #2 comic book...and Detective Comics #38 (first Robin)...I sold them for a lot of cash almost 20 years ago...but today they are both worth even more insane money...sniff...no...I take that back...ARGH......

        As far as Mego I'd say MOC Superman & Batman. I don;t even remember what issue card they were but they were probably '79. I remmeber them going for half what they do know.

        Star Wars in another ball game. I sold 7 SW carded (assorted 12, 20 21 backs)
        including a Luke Skywalker. That one still haunts me is when I was last looking it's one of the ones that goes for $$.

        Also Star Wars related I sold a handful of my childhood figures to collectible store as I was desperate for cash. I regret that more than anything else. I was able to get a couple back years later as they some identifying marks but I still kick myself over that.

          My MOC Ironman and MOC Green Goblin (in 2006), though they helped fund our first adoption. Fortunately, the buyer was kind enough to trade the Ironman back to me. The GG is long gone and has traded hands a couple more times since then.

                          I don't understand your question.

                              Never sold anything that I've regretted. I've only sold extras.

                                I had a ton of Spanish Madelman figures.
                                I bought them for $3 a piece.
                                I sold them for $50 a piece.

                                Ten years later, we're talking $600 a piece.
