    Hi all Mego lovers!

    Hi guys ( 'n gals?),
    I'm fairly new on these boards... but I already like them!
    I'm a French guy living near Paris and collecting Mego WGSH and die-cast Popy toys.
    Getting Mego material here in France is quite tough! So imagine when I discovered Mego Museum more than one year ago. By then, I couldn't register with my yoohoo mail, but here I am now!
    I've spent hours in the Museum and now love Megos like never...
    To me, Mego was related to that Batman figure I was dying to own when I was a kid watching the TV show aired on summer holidays. All I could get (after sacking every single shelf in the stores) was a Robin... In my child plays, he had to rescue Batman from a trap by finding him back... Well, the mission succeeded about 20 years later when I finally grabbed a 8' Batman on his Pin Pin Toys card!
    Since, I'm trying now to get all the Pin Pin Toys cards and all the heroes and villains that weren't available in France... I would like to go into Trek, Apes, Oz and so many other licenses but hey, I guess we all!
    One of my favourite part of the Museum is the Customego section, some of you guys are doing amazing job!
    I used to make model kits and now I have many ideas of custom but few time these days... No doubt I'll find the force here to achieve something.
    Cheers from ye old continent!

                              Wow Thanks everybody!
                              Now that's what I call a cheerful welcome!
                              @txteach: English were my favourite lessons at school since all my favourite heroes (I mean villains) came from the US. So when I was reading comics or watching TV, there were always things in the background that wasn't translated. By then, seeing 'no trepassing' was quite confusing since 'trepasser' means to die in french...
