    Mego Mention on "The Cleveland Show"

    Good News- Somebody on the Cleveland show is a fan of Mego Superheroes

    Bad News- It was a nerd joke.

    I posted a video at the MM Facebook page.

      That was unexpected.

      It's just odd though. As a writer for a Fox network cartoon, exactly how much of the target demographic did they think would be reached with that joke? Eh, I guess it's not the first obscure reference on those cartoons.

      As a collector, obviously I think it's cool. Has to be one of the largest exposures of Mego in the last 25 years.

        Yeah I'm used to Mego gags on Venture Brothers and Robot Chicken but this was probably the biggest name drop in years.

        When it happened, my wife turned to me and said "Go ahead, twitter about it Nerd!"

          Not to spoil the suprise, but why not use actual Mego Klingon action figures instead?

                  Couldn't view the video as I'm not on Facebook, but that comment was too funny

                      I actually heard it last night (I was only paying half attention to the show) and thought I just misheard it. I told myself they were just talking about superhero action figures but I guess they weren't

                            Hmmmm.... nerds and action figures.... Nope. Not seeing the connection.

                            >I'm used to Mego gags on Venture Brothers and Robot Chicken

                            Half the RC guys work on this show too. So.... I'm wondering how completely sick of Mego the one's who DON'T are....

                            >"Go ahead, twitter about it Nerd!"

                            HAW! That's funnier than the original joke!
