    I found my old Mego stash:

    My wife said she heard me talking about looking for these, but said it didn't really click. She knew where they were all the time.

    Here's a shot of my old Megos--as you can see, I was into the Star Trek line. My sister got me the Hulk figure for a b-day gift, sometime in the 70s. I wanted an Iron Man and Thor, back in the day. Eventually I'll make repros of both of them.

    Scotty and Cheron are a bit banged up, while everyone else is missing their phaser/communicator/belt, their tricorder, or both. I'm thinking I'll be visiting Dr. Mego for some fixes and replacement parts.

    Sadly, I'm missing the blue dude from Gamma VI, but I did find his three buddies.

      Always cool to bring them out of hiding.

        Very nice collection! Looks like you took exttra special care of 'em. Cheron appears to have a war wound but somebody had to be the victim

            So cool that you were able to dig up your old figures. We love Mego so much because we grew up playing with them... so I always have a soft spot in my heart for the actual Megos that I played with as a kid (and managed to keep all these years). Yours are in a lot better shape than mine, though.

                That's really great. Like finding a time capsule. You must have a lot of great memories attached to all of them.

                      That's awesome that you are reunited with you childhood collection. I held on to mine too, but i didn't have near as many as you. Dug them out of storage last year and haven't looked back..... i'm all in on the Mego collecting .

                        If you collect for reasons of nostalgia (like me and so many others), nothing beats the thrill of your original Megos! I wish I could track mine down. Congrats!
