Great looking stuff, Dave,
thanks for the quick pics.
Now you just need a Mego scale stable hand to clean up after them.

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.

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.Leave a comment:

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.Leave a comment:

Those are two great finds. Luck was definitely with you on that day!Leave a comment:

Good on you Dave, we share that philosophy with shows. A lot of the time my wife says "Why even go there, you never find anything." but one time I did and well I might again, that's what keeps us going I guess.
I did a show with my son this past weekend and I was far, far less successful than you, sad to say. Still I had fun.Leave a comment:

Congrats Dave, you had more luck then me. There was also a toy show here this weekend (this is also where I found my RM Robin last year, without origina mask), but I saw noting but a couple of overpriced Waltons and Klingons.
I did get to see Jean-Claude Van Damme tho, who was a guest there

Wow deal! I like the Western line too and Cochise with a Nice box, and parts still bagged for $30 sounds great! His original accessories are always hard to find.Leave a comment:
