Just bought an unopened case of 24 Mego Klingons!

You could have Schrödinger's cat in there.

Your case purchases were a fun event for the museum a few years back given that it was a shared experience distributing Minty kirks and Klingons amongst the members for ridiculously inexpensive prices. Fond memories for sure.

(which can be option 4)

Hi there!
Nice job with the pickup. I have also been a Star Trek MEGO case purchaser. It's loads of fun! If you do open it, be prepared to meet some examples that will not be "stone mint" due to all kinds of variables. I hope that you will have awesome luck and find T1 examples and blank back examples and even some reverse packaged examples.

The risk of the sealed case!!!!!

Just so you are aware, I have seen the following flaws in the cases I have opened:

• Broken bubbles
• Crushed edges
• Popped knee pins
• Melted accessories
• Lifted bubbles
• Moldy collars
• Nose or skull push on bubbles

Best of luck to you!!!!!
Bryan

Very fond, buddy!

Option #4 is fun fun fun!

It just seems awful to open these guys up after they've been stored in that shipping case all these years!! BUT........what if there's 24 ROMULANS in there?????

It would deflate the price of the Romulan figures.

[Gorn Captain]

I'd want to see what's in there, to avoid any surprises later on.

And option 5 could be to open the box, and have a really cool army of Klingons. You can never have too many...

I am fairly certain these are type 2, 6 face carded klingons (possibly blank backs), as I don't recall type 1's being solid packed (not saying they weren't, I just don't recall)...

in any event, fun stuff for sure...good luck

Yep, gonna have to open the box......because anything could be in there!! Unless a member here has X Ray vision, it's gonna have to see the light of day...... !!

No, I'd just sell one every 6 months to keep the prices stable.......or, I'd just keep'em and have an army of expensive Romulans!!

i once bought a case of mego hulk figures and i'd say almost half had either a broken arm or broken leg.

[dumbldor]

These no doubt came from the Canadian warehouse "find" back in the 1980s. There were many, many cases of these. They were all Type 2.

I can't see you trying to sell off 23 of them. It would be a lot of effort, and you would not make your money back.

[Mr Mego]

You ain't so bad yourself, buddy!

Do you still have that Klingon? It's fun to know where they are hanging out these days. It's been a couple of years already! Time flies when you're living in the past!!

Yep, I still have this original Carded Klingon from you. Thanks!!

It's still on the top of my wood frame with glass display shelf, my Megos and EMCES still there.

That sucks, unfortunately Hulks are kind of predisposed for that kind of damage. Klingons have a better shot at being less damaged, unless maybe they are blank backs.

to bad you couldnt get it x-rayed to see if there are even figures in there,it says klingons ,then its gotta be klingons ,or maybe by some chance ,some guy back in the shipping department put a bunch of wgsh inside to hide them for himself and he lost them in 1975.could be a bunch of ironmans or lizards .if you dont open them,then you can dream that its mego gold.

I'm definitely gonna open it up when it gets here.

Then I'll have to largest Mego 6 face Klingon collection in the country....and I'm happy with that......, but until I open the case, anything's possible.......
