the last I remember seeing mego at a store is at childworld in around 83 or it could have been 84 or even 85 I'm not positive on the exact year. It was Catwoman and Mr. Mxy and they were boxed and 1.50 each. I bought catwoman as I couldn't pass her by but when I went to CA. for about a year in 87 I lost her along the way. I still think about that catwoman and wonder whatever happened to her.Comment

If I remember right is was probably the 12" magnetic Batman and Robin at Circus World in the mall. But by then I was "too old". There were probably a few carded Hulks at TRU in '84 when I was out looking for the new Super Powers line.sigpic WANTED: Boxed, Carded and Kresge Carded WGSHComment

Toys R Us for me too. I distinctly remember that organge sticker on the spiderman carded figures. They were on clearance...I had one in my hands as I was shopping with my girlfriend (who became my wife) in 1987....I put it back in favor of something that is now long gone (can't even remember what it was. probably baseball or basektball cards).
I remember telling her, "I had this when I was a kid....I had this when I was a kid..."
She said, "well, you're not a kid anymore. put it back"Comment

Funny thing, she has always gone with me on my toy hunting expeditions, finding things that I missed. I think, in a strange way, she gets to re-live her childhood through my attempt to live out my childhood in toy collecting.

toys R us
I last megos, in stores I saw, was at the Toys r Us in Eugene, OR back in the summer 1993. It was the Eagle Force Figures for Clearance under a $1.00. I got two that I didn't have, to go with the two, I bought at the same Toys r Us in the summer of 1990. I still have the card back packed away in storage. Same visit in 1993, I saw on the top shelf out of reach, what I believe was a Buck Rogers Command Center. All I could see was the faded/worn, cut out landing/run way pad. I wish I had bought that also.Mego Nudists Fish Nude Show Off your Rod.Comment

In my head whenever someone says "Megos" I always think of the 8" action figures not the actual company itself. So to add to my original answer, my Toys R Us still had the Buck Rogers playset (Command Center) in 1986. They also had the Pocket Action Heroes of Superman and Batman.ScottComment
