New Mego Acquisitions? Got any?

[TrekStar]

I picked up this at a time when I couldn't afford it. I'm a sucker for Ninjas and Martial Arts figures in general. The seller had all three sets but I only wanted this one.

Congrats on that great pick up, the ninja reminds me of Storm Shadow.

Very nice, the Mego 12" Superheroes are some of the best the company put out.

I just got this local to me. Good condition for a 12 incher from 1978.

Nice, I need to collect more of the 12” line.

Nice Superman! I remember when I got that at Kings while visiting my grandparents in New Haven, CT. His left leg did not hold up to my rough play, LOL!

Congrats on the pickup. He looks great!

He looks like a solid piece-Good score.

Thanks for the link, I don’t recall seeing that one before.

$30 for a carded Mugato is even better, congrats. I’m looking for a carded Cheron, they seem to be a bit pricey.

That white belt for the Astronaut (at a reasonable price, no repro) continues to elude me: jealous!

I'm in the same boat,

Cool that Cornelius still had his moccasins & The Astronaut had his belt.. They (the figures) look in good shape overall, good score.

Really happy for you! And an excellent score, I think! That white belt for the Astronaut (at a reasonable price, no repro) continues to elude me: jealous!

It's been said many times before by people way more knowledgeable than me about Mego, but it continues to amuse me how many different variations of the soldier ape are extant. In the photo, that one's head sculpt looks like someone just shot his dog. I have one myself where the head sculpt looks like it was made with 50% reference to Zippy the Pinhead. Crazy and funny and weird, and, at least for me, a significant aspect of what makes nostalgia/vintage collecting fun.

Found a glow in the dark Nosferatu at a walmart I don't frequent too often. That was pretty cool.

Good POTA pick up, are you going to search for the original Soldier Ape gloves and rifle? the original rifle might be difficult.
$30 for a loose EMCE/Diamond Select Mugato is also a pretty good deal, I have most of the EMCE/DS Trek aliens except for Cheron, hoping to grab one off ebay still sealed on card at a reasonable price.

I just picked these up on Facebook Marketplace for $75. The seller had them up for over a year at $100. Last month he dropped the price to $80. Last week I offered $75 and after a 16-minute drive, they were mine. Soldier Ape is missing his gloves and rifle and the Astronaut's string has seen better days. I may need to do some re-stringing on Cornelius but overall, I'm happy with the purchase.
