NOOB collection

[megomania]

the monsters look like they're pretty solid. wish they had the window, but, i guess the figs were wrapped inside the boxes anyways. those may be the focus of my next hunt. are comic cons good spots to find boxed and carded figs in good condition? I've been to dozens of shows over the past few years, but, I've always headed directly to and spent all my time at artist alley, never really looked for MEGO stuff before. i just got my tickets for ECCC, maybe find something there? already started saving for that trip.

ECCC as in Seattle?

been from the u.k. i thought all figures were carded too thats all we got over here.that's why i didn't think anything odd about my riddler fist fighter been on a card.

Nice Collection.

Well if you're looking for information about Mego's...this is the place.

If you have the ability to pick up this book, it will help you as well:

Congrats.

yeah, i actually downloaded the digital version of that book before i bought the collection. i suppose at that point i thought they were all carded and not boxed. it is absolutely fantastic. love how each figure has a few pages dedicated per, thats killer. i looked around a bit today, looks like it'll be tough to add anything else to this collection if this is the bar for condition. are all OG figures hard to find?

so, here are the tops to two random figs from my collection. they're all this good, look like they've never been opened. luckily, most of the price tags are on the bottom.

A friend of mine that's a crazy collector asked me awhile back if I was interested in a collection of toys. They remembered that I had tried to do Megos years and years ago, somewhat unsuccessfully. I went to look at them, with cash in hand. As soon as they opened that first box with the boxed 8" figs, I knew I wanted them. I'll have to snap some closer pics. They're absolutely fabulous. I've bought a bunch of stuff from my friend over the last almost 20 years but this is maybe the coolest score.

When those boxes were opened, reminded me of this.

So give us some details on how you found the collection. You don't have to name names, or prices.....

That's one great collection, everything looks mint and clean, very nice.
