There are a few grails in my collections (MEGO and otherwise) that I would still jump on if provided the opportunity (and if having the finances available), but I am mostly looking to thin out the excess, streamline, and find a nice way to present what I am truly fond of.
I think the majority of my MEGO collecting has moved to attempts to customize figures that I would like to see done in that format, but will most probably not see commercially made. Customizing with my son, Cip, is also one of my continued MEGO efforts.

It's a real pain, but the holidays are a great time to sell, both for what you get for some items, and for moving items quicker than they might at other times of the year. I wasn't as gung-ho this year as I have been in the past -- it really is a pain and I was tired -- but I did well with what I managed to put up for sale before Christmas.Leave a comment:

I also have reached a point where I am looking to drastically thin things down. I started selling in October but stopped for the holidays. I plan to start up again next month or March as people start to get tax returns and have disposable income again.Leave a comment:

From a purchasing standpoint, I'd like a Mego Falcon and 12" Superman. And I will continue to buy mostly super-hero ReMegos.
I'd like to find a way to display more of my figures. I have too many boxed up figures; ReMegos, Marvel Legends, DC Multiverse, etc.
What I'd really like to concentrate on in 2020 is customs. Nothing earth shattering, but I have Legion of Super-Heroes suits that need proper heads and insignias. I have a bleit1701 Falcon suit and Doc Mego boots that just needs a clean head. If I can find a clean Iron Man head, or a nice nose-less custom, I'd like to build that figure. I'm still trying to figure out how to make the best Mego style Hawkman. The list goes on...
And finally, I plan to continue to sell off major parts of my collections. I am in a place where I am selling more than I am buying.Leave a comment:

To use psychic influence to cause Mego to release the upcoming figures I want on an accelerated timeline.Leave a comment:

Was quite lucky last year, finished of most lines. I think Ill give the Cipsa apes a bash, as I dont have any. Would love a Amigo Aj. As far as playsets go, still on the hunt for my grail of a Lost continent, and fancy a Fonzie boxed bike. Oh and still on the prowl for a decent Sailback and Rhino.Leave a comment:

that I don't have, starting with Green Arrow.Leave a comment:

Still after a Creature squirt gun, still after Irwin carded Remco mini-Monsters.
Edit: Just realized you specified Mego goals, and I have a few: catch up on last years monsters (L2P was already out of the current wave when we committed and I sure can’t find them in stores!), make it to Mego Meet, meet Marty and crew at this year’s Toylanta in March!Leave a comment:

More FTC figures and maybe a Mego Falcon. That will probably be the only time I branch into the actual Mego figures.Leave a comment:

I don't know if it's age, or life or what, but I've reached the point where it's time to start selling off some stuff. I have NEVER sold a darn thing in my collection; a bit of a hoarder in that regard, but I try to limit my collection to one bedroom and space has become a BIG issue.
And with this magnificent era of remego's I find myself rebuying the same characters over and over as they come out and later thinking I don't need FOUR versions of Shazam or Kirk or Freddy.
I think 2020 will see me at least attempt to thin it down a tad. I'm not talking a ton, but really asking the hard question if I really want this in my collection. Selling may seem second nature to many of you but it's not a comfortable zone for me.
You may see my marketplace debut in 2020.Leave a comment:
