    Secondary Lines

    We spend so much time (and rightfully so) on WGSH, Star Trek and my favorite, POTA. In addition to these, the only other megos I have are Wizard of Oz.

    What secondary mego lines are you into, of the 8" variety? Do you have a soft spot for Happy Days, Chips, Waltons, Starsky & Hutch?

    Thanks,

    Chris

    I'm trying like mad to update and create some new content that doesn't apply to the 3 biggies.

    I'm a fan of Action Jackson, Starsky and Hutch and recently bought my first OMBC figure.

            I think the Monsters are really fun. Unfortunately, they're so scarce. It will be a lot easier for me to jump into the Chips/Starsky & Hutch pool.

              To be honest,
              I never knew any of the Legends existed until I started collecting in the mid 80's.

                    At first i only wanted to complete the STAR TREK line, Then i decided to get a few of my favorite WGSH like BATMAN and SUPERMAN which now i'm only two figures short from having the complete line, Then i started collecting the apes then i got a LANCELOT then i added the monsters and ACTION JACKSON. I really need to stop adding more lines, I have brought CHIPS and WOZ figures to use the bodies for customs

                      Outside of the WGSH line my favorites are the Merry Men and Super Knights lines, and finally the Star Trek line for the sci-fi geek in me. IMO, Ivanhoe is the greatest Mego ever produced, though I grant the RC Bats and Green Arrow give him a run for the money.

                        I loved the Knights when I was a kid and the Monsters would not only cool on their own right, but they were in comic books for Ogem's sake!

                            For the secondary lines, I have a full set of WOZ figures. When I can afford them, I'd like to collect Space 1999 line, but for now I'm settling for the CTVT remakes and some customs. Curiously, the only figures I had from the primary lines were the Batman figures. Then EMCE retros came out and it inspired me to buy a full set of the original Trek crew. Now I've even branched out into some of the main WGSH figures.

                              pretty much everyone

                              i started with the main 3 as well
                              i have repros of lines i don't care enough to spend big bucks on

                              starsk and hutch are naked and no supporting caracters so they are prob the lowest for me
                              other than off shoots like our gang
