New Mego Acquisitions? Got any?

[PNGwynne]

Congratulations, that's always such a good feeling and so minty.

That's an impressive collection, congrats on your completion!

I've seen those on eBay over the years, but honestly don't remember ever seeing them in the stores. They're marked 1977, so that may be why. I stopped buying toys for awhile after late 1976 when records started getting all of my expendable cash and were made the top priority of all my birthday and Christmas wish lists. I worked at Toys R Us from Fall of '81 through the end of Winter in '83, and I don't remember seeing them then either.

If I had come across them in the early to mid 80's, I would probably have bought all of the figures and displayed them on top of my refrigerator and posed them in a circle. Can't help it, I was drawn that way.

Got two of my favorite mego items, well Batman is an upgraded double.

I bought a couple of Mego Star Trek figures from Ireland, new in package, and they are quite interesting. One is a Sulu figure w/ commander stripes. The uniform is also not the neon-bright yellow of the US Target release, making it much nicer to my eyes. The Chekov figure is the other one, and it has the same type of uniform. Very cool figures.

Great purchases for you both!! I love the smell of vintage toys in the morning.

I'm in Seventh Heaven right now.

I had a chance a couple years back to get the whole crew moc for $75 . I passed unfortunately just missing Mccoy and Spock now. ��

That will be a nice carded set of figures, got the bridge set for the 3 3/4 line?

No and I probably won't get one. Takes up too much space. I'd rather have a boxed millennium Falcon . I won't rule out finding the loose Aliens though.

Picked up a nice, clean type 2 Captain America with his shield. Just need to order a chest emblem for him.

Very nice pick up, looks clean with good paint. If you want, you could get a custom Kresge card for it from the toyroom, he does a very good job, that’s what I did for my type-1 Tarzan.

Picked up an AJ frogman scuba outfit that I needed, but is missing part of the floater. D'oh!

[Mego Batman]

I picked up the new 2021 14 inch Batman. Here's a picture of it next to the New 52 14 inch Batman:



I like them both for different reasons, and don't have a favorite.

Edit: it's a thumbnail link to a larger picture.

Past month, I've picked up three Dinah Mites and a Nu-Mego Phoebe and Caville Superman for fodder. Got the first batch of wave 14, and am waiting for local Targets or Walmarts to get in some of the new Kirks. Great head sculpt on that figure I'm gonna need to stock up on.

Picked up Toxie last saturday. Love him!

[Mr Mego]

I found him for 20 bucks at local Comic shop in a few days ago. He need one original shoe to complete him. Well, I have spare shoes out of new Mego Dracula for him till I find original one. He looks like he never been played with, check it out on my Flickr album - The Wizard near complete. I finally got completed Oz figures in my collection.
