    Pics of my old Mego collection

    Hi,
    Was going threw some pics last night and found some pics I took of my Megos that I used to own. Me and my wife bought a house then had 2 kids bills got tight and my megos had to go That was in I think 2000

    But hay I get to have the thrill of the hunt again right

    So I thought I would share these pics with you all. Sure hope I can rebuild my collection.

      I'm sorry you had to sell your Megos. You had a pretty nice collection. But good luck hunting for your new one! It'll be fun!

        Looks like you had some real beauties.

        I went through a similar thing, around 2003. The design firm I was working at folded and I decided to sell some of my more valuable megos for extra money. In '07 I started acquiring new ones and have a pretty good collection again. I'm sure you'll have your collection rebuilt sooner than you think.

        Good luck.

            Nice bunch of stuff, one has to wonder if anybody here has some of it and where it ended up. I sold my original collection in 1991 because I needed to eat. I often wonder who here has some of it now.

                Thanks for the comments everyone.
                I'm thinking there are probably a few members here with some of my Mego's (I hope there are anyway at least then I knoe there still in good shape)

                And as I pick up my new collection I will let ya all know.

                    i almost thought i had already posted when i read that...

                    we all have lean times, i just hope there are no more to come, im fed up of selling on my personal stuff to help pay bills or debt - collecting probably put me in the debt in the 1st place, never ending circle

                    very cool pics, reminds me when i saw some of them in the stores as a kid

                        Nice pictures and neat story other than you having to sell your collection that is. I always like to see pictures of vintage original Mego collections. Thanks for sharing and good luck getting them (and more) all back some day.
                        Enjoy what you like, and let others enjoy what they like. (C) Azrak 2009

                            awesome collection!! i went thru the same thing in 2002, and i know for sure rudy z has a couple of my figures. i dont think i'll ever have the same extensive collection i had before due to mortgage, kids, cars, etc.... but it's better to have some megos than none at all.
