    Long Time Lurker-Finally Signed Up!

    Hello fellow Mego lovers. My name is Brad and I have been a lurker here for about 4 years now and I figured it was time to join the community.


    My wife Maggy and I are collectors at heart. I have a large collection of vintage Kawasakis from the 1972-1976 era and a ton of NOS and used parts. Mainly the triple 2 strokes (H2s) and we have 17 triples and 20 bikes total. I also have a medium sized collection of Hotwheels Redline cars and tracks, some vintage toys, some Viewmaster sets, and a small collection of NFL and NBA cards.

    Maggy has a HUGE collection of Spongebob. She buys almost everything they put out and 99% of her collection is all NIB. Her collection is now near 30 tubs (the large storage tubs-I believe they are 45 gallon size?) strong which takes up quite a bit of garage space.


    She also has a collection of Walton's memorabilia which is why I am here. She long ago picked up the doll sets NIB and that's what led me here to do some research. This is a great place with a wealth of information. When looking over the products I realized that I owned a number Mego figures as a child (I am now 45) which I still have fond memories of.

    I decided to finally sign up because we are going to start a small collection of Mego (and a few Kenner) figures. Between here and eBay I think we will be able to purchase some quality items and many of you here are very knowledgeable so we hope to rely on you folks for both advice when needed and also to purchase from fellow members when possible.


    Sorry if this is a bit long but I laike to let people know who I am other then just a screen name.

    Thanks!
    Brad and Maggy

                      Thanks everyone! I am adding links to our ebay seller id. We don't sell any Mego items but people can see that we are legit as I understand folks can be wary of newbies.


                      I also added the link to our triples board, again so that anyone can check and see that we are legit. This way people here will feel safe dealing with us as we will be hopefully buying from some of the members here.


                      And before anyone asks, yes, it is true that we met on ebay and were married at the convention in New Orleans.

                            That's cool Mark! I hope your Maggie is nicer then mine is.

                            Just kidding of course, I adore my wife. And if I do this correctly here is a picture of her Mego figures that brought me here.
