      Not sure if it's true, but there was a rumour Saddam Hussein used to collect Waltons Megos.

              I've heard Bill Mumy from Lost in Space collects Pez. Mark Hamill is suppose to collect cereal boxes among other things.

                Alex Ross is famous to comic folks. He collects Megos. Heck he uses them as props and models for his paintings.

                          Seth Green of course, it was his Batmobile that was blown up on Robot Chicken.

                          A comedian by the name of Bill Leffe has a nice Mego collection. You see KISS mego's occasionally on MTV Cribs, I don't know many of the people they feature though....

                            I thought I heard that Marilyn Manson had an extensive Mego collection but didn't know if it was true or not.

                              They probably all have the heads pulled off or melted in to deformed states.
                              It's not a doll it's an action figure.
