Where do you hail from? Nottinghamshire, Great Britain

How did you find the Mego Museum? I found the Museum back when it was the old website layout… I wanted to find out about Megos because it said Mego on the back of my planet of apes figure I found on a car boot/yard sale… it bought back memories from having some as a child. * What inspired you to join the forum? I joined the museum because I found lots of information which listed all Megos that had been made and I never knew there was so many….it was very interesting and I wanted to try build a collection of my own as they looked so good on the museum pictures.

I love the carded figures but I am humbled at your blue bat cycles.

One of my goals for 2012 is to get a blue bat cycle not for Batman but for Batgirl.

Thanks for sharing.

I love the art on the hulk card.

Congrats and great stuff! Always good to see other megohead collections and hear some of their origin stories

What is the difference on the 3 Zorros. The one on the left side of the photo looks like it may have a repro box. Does another have repro clothes?

[scoth70]

hi all thanks very much for your comments its great to here what other members have to say...
yes theres a place called nottingham in nottinghamshire not seen robinhood anywhere yet though apart from the mego robinhood i own..

as for the dracula yes its just how i got the display uneven hes same as the others..

as for the zorros the first zorro looking at the left one has repro box,hat and cape,the sword and clothes/figure all original.

the zorro in the middle is one i purchased last year and is all original with original box and im the first mego collector to own it since it was discovered

the last zorro on right hand side of picture has a repro box and hat..all the rest is original (so if anyone has a spare original hat lying around be good
