    Great Deal on a vintage MEGO - $5.00 shipped!

    This is what I got in the mail today!



    When I opened the package it smelled like a used ashtray. Didn't stop to take a picture as my kids Asthma kicked in. Off came the clothes and straight into a soaking. The body spent about 10 hours under soapy water. Once the hair is shampooed and brushed and the clothes have dried I will post a picture.

    Doll actually survived the trip!

      It must be the MEGO made for the Stop Smoking PSA.

        If you factor in his time, ebay fees and gas used to drive to the post office, he's lucky if he broke even. I'm dying to see what this is.

              I hate when I get things that smell. I hope it comes out okay. Smoke is the most annoying smell to get rid of.

                One of our former members smoked heavily, and I asked him to send me the BatGirl he sold me wrapped in dryer sheets, and placed in a Ziploc baggie. She still smells like dryer sheets, and that was almost 3 years ago!

                    I wish I had photographed the backside of the package as a hand was poking out!

                      18" tall.
                      Hair brushed out nicely (It was a tangled mess!)
                      Body and hands are in good shape (washing helped)
                      Clothes still smell and have stains. (Into a sock and than the washing machine they go!)

                        Maybe I can get my wife to sew up some Zombie clothes for her.
