    We suspected they were somewhere, maybe in the attic of the house, and my mom didn't want to go up there. She didn't want me up there either. So I just brought it up every holiday, or sooner.
    Turns out the box, that also had G.I. Joes and Star Wars, etc.
    was in the garage rafters! Ha ha!

      I think my youngest brother did that. He is 5 years younger. The Megos lived through 3 boys. I'm sure some died too! Ha Ha!

        I don't know what that was supposed to be.
        It's Shazam's head, Robin's shorts and shoes, on a tin man body, and he did have an A.J. Sailor shirt on. I'm blaming it on my brother again! Haha!

                  Oh man, this is fantastic. Nothing beats finding your childhood toys again, especially if they're Megos

                      Cool. That is great. I had the same thing happen to me a couple of years ago. I thought they were long gone and then I found them in my mom's storage, mislabeled. It is a fantastic feeling knowing that they are your own. I like AJ in the Joker's outfit
                      It's all good!
