What was your first MEGO owned?

[RickD]

Since Christmas time is right around the corner, I was wondering what your first MEGO toy was?

Mine was Superman! As you can see this is a sewn cape and attached to my Superman. We didn't have a lot of money growing up so my parents did alot of their shopping at Swap Meets. My parents bought this for me since I was and still am a HUGE superhero fan! My mom made a homemade cape and I have it still to this day!

8" Superman.

There were two, a boxed AJ and a soldier ape......They were both stocking stuffers!

Thanks to my grandparents, my brother and I got the very first wave of WGSH. Solid boxed, RC Batman and RC Robin, Superman and Aquaman. Wasn't too long afterwards that Spider-Man and Capt. America joined our collections.

The rest are long gone, but I still have that Spidey!

I'm not sure which one was first, but I think it was Shazam, Batman, Robin, Captain America and Spider-Man (along with the Batmobile & the Spider-Man Crime Lab) for Christmas when I was VERY young.

Removeable mask Batman AND Robin - well, my brother got Robin, but he
got tired of it the next day so I took possession.

I stood in the store debating between Batman and Superman until my
mother demanded I make a choice. This is what made me a collector.
That night, I stared at the side gallery on the box wishing I chose Superman.

I had Batman, Robin and a Batmobile. Xmas 1974 as evidenced in this pic:

A Zira I bought for myself when I was in my 30s. Maybe I had other Mego toys--just never any action figures...I just highly doubt that...I can't remember much of my childhood.

I believe it was the wonderful 8" Spidey. I owned him repeatedly even when he didn't get broken. I seem to remember bringing him home more than once.
