    OMG! That DMR Project was so flipping funny! I do remember the Museum and its columns when it was linked to a site known as Yesterdayland. In fact, I believe it was Scott who advised me on Type 1 repair back then. And then I think it kinda disappeared for a while, then so did Yesterdayland, and I thought that was that. Fast forward years later and I found this place. It's been home ever since.

    That prototype of the MM playset looked pretty cool, Scott. May it someday become a reality.

        Just think, next year Mego Museum (in it's current form) will celebrate it's 10th anniversary.

        We gotta have a big party

          I can't believe it's been almost 15 years.

          Can I get a shout out for the Batman Oven Mitt navigation buttons?

              I remember when the museum was new. I miss the old style, but the new museum is awesome. Got my first computer in '96 and the museum was one of the first sites I found. I sure love Mego and thanks for the killer site to hang out at. I can't even remember what my old screen name was. I never would post on the forum, but I was always looking at the pictures...and reading others comments.

                I used to find it odd when people knew who i was but had never posted but now I think it's just part of being on a public forum.

                    Great trip down memory lane. I loved Mel, she inspired me to make my own.

                      I always wondered about the picture of the two kids, which I think is priceless, but how much of that is real, and not just photoshop.

                        The children themselves are real, the rest is photoshoppery at it's finest.

                          I first visted the Museum in 1997 (my first year of University). I would visit the computer lab on my free periods and Google "mego".

                          I never owned a home computer then.

                          I lurked around for years before actually joining. But I'm glad I did. Now these Forums have become a part of my daily life.

                              Wow! I had forgotten about stumbling across the old column pillar version of the Mego Museum back at the dawn of time.

                              It's great that you guys kept archives!
