Ok so what Mego packaging art do you like the best. It can be boxed, carded, figure or playset and from any line that Mego made, all lines, 8", 3 3/4", heroes, monster, western, Love Boat, CB McHaul, anything, but it has to be Mego and not Palitoy or another company because we all know that the artwork Palitoy used always blew Mego away. Also, it doesn't have to be something that you've owned. I'd have to go with the artwork from the Mangler box. Have to say I think it's my all time favorite!

Hmmmm....
Mad Monsters boxes. Then the Micronauts. The Kelley stuff is brilliant, and there was something fascinating about the stark, metallic, mechanical packages for the other stuff.

I really like the AJ art. I always thought enlarged versions of those squares showing his outfits on the back of the packages would have made great trading cards. I also really like Star Trek art (like on the Tricorder box), and of course the Superheroes."Do you believe, you believe in magic?
'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

I really loved the artwork used for Mad Monsters and the Action Jackson adventure sets (costumes and vehicles). AJ in particular had a GI Joe vibe to his packaging and the Mad Monsters artwork had a European, Hammer flavor to it. Of course I always enjoyed the superhero boxed artwork since it pulled mostly from Kirby, Romita, Colan and many more. I became less of a fan of the carded versions since the front artwork looked more like rough mock ups.Last edited by MIB41; Dec 1, '13, 7:39 AM.Comment

Batman from the solid box.If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.Comment

From a nostalgia standpoint only, I love the 79 cards since those are what I remember in stores. As a superhero fan I like the 77 cards the best. The images used on those cards were at least in somecases taken right from comics (I've seen those Superman & Batman hards on several Justice League comics I own) so they have right look.Comment

For me, too, it is the AJ and the Star Trek stuff. For me the image on the phaser II has always fascinated me as in what did the Cheron do to get phasered. Lol.It's all good!Comment

The Mad Monsters solid boxes with the beautiful Gray Morrow paintings. Second place would be the Ken Kelly Micronauts packaging, and third place the 12" Superman boxes. If we could include foreign releases, I also really like the paintings on the boxes for the GiG Black Hole magnetic figures.Comment

The Mad Monsters art on the solid boxes is my favorite, & for some reason I really dig the inserts to the Knights & Pirates... They're just pictures of a castle off in the distance, but I just dig it... dunno why

The 12" Superman movie line. It's gorgeous, and chock full of comic art swipes from Curt Swan, Neal Adams and Ross Andru.
