    Even beat up or overpriced, I still enjoy seeing Megos in the wild. I've actually started going to shows knowing its unlikely I'll buy anything. Its just fun to poke around.

    Congrats on a great find Dave. If your patient, you can find C.8 boxed western figures for around $50. It takes time, but I've picked about about half of them.
    WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.

      Nice additions, Dave.
      How about a few pics of your Stables?

          This show, when at it's biggest, is two large halls. At it's smallest, it's half a hall, usually filled with models and matchbox cars. It was the small one I found my RMR. Only went because my son had his cousin over visiting and he'd never been to a show. It was something to do. I didn't even really have cash on me. Walked up to the first both and noticed a few mego's on stands. Looked down at some he had bagged and there was the RMR. I assumed it was fake and asked to take a look. It wasn't fake. I was hoping the guy didn't know what he had, but of course he did. He held it for me and 5 minutes after I took the boys to the toy show, we were leaving to find an ATM.

          That was a good Mego month for me. I got my Zorro within 2 weeks of that RMR. I was broke for a while after that month.

            Here are the requested pics of the stables. Got a couple others floating around not pictured here, they are still looking for a home, but there are a couple customs and a non-mego hourse in the house. In one of the pics, the boxed Cochise is pictured behind his loose counterpart.

              Great looking stuff, Dave,
              thanks for the quick pics.

              Now you just need a Mego scale stable hand to clean up after them.
