famous mego collectors

[BlackKnight]

I think it's the Drummer to SlipNot ,.. or a Drummer from some Metal Band that collects & Customizes Mego's. He was featured in an Article of Toyfare a few yrs Back,.. I can't remember the issue.

& Sabastian Bach
Thomas Jane
& Nicholas Cage are all Comicbook Collectors I believe.


In the 40yr old Virgin Movie,... anyone Know Who's collection that was ? I find it a little far fetched that they just ran out & bought all those Items for the Movie,.. after it really didn't cost that much to make. I figured it was someone's who was either in,.. or related to that Movie's production.

Skateboarding legend Steve Caballero collects Megos.

Yeah, who supplied 40 year old Virgin? Weren't those repro boxes?

i bet there's lots more mego celebrity collectors out there but they just dont want to be poked fun of because they play with doilles!

Scott and Charlie from Anthrax are both vintage toy and comic collectors. I know they've owned some Megos.

There's alot of guys in the Metal scene who collect vintage toys, actually. And quite a few of them have Ben's book

Slash from Guns and Roses heavily collects Dinosaur statues.

I knew and bought from the guy the suppiles most of his commisions, he was also featured in Prehistoric Times magazine many many years ago.

Hal Steinbrenner definitely collects Star Trek Megos...I don't know what else though. I sold him a MOC Dr. McCoy action figure one time.

I saw the KISS figures on Gene Simmons "Family Jewels" in his display cabinet.

I did hear that Huckabone helped Leonardo Dicaprio build up a collection...but then heard he sold them.

Other than that I'm not sure.

I have a feeling it's more becasue they're afraid an army of toy geek fan boys/girls will try and bond with them if they let people know about their hobby

yeah, megos were in the 40 year old virgin (aquaman,ironman) but i guess as long as you don't have a oscar goldman doll your in the clear. lol

From what I've seen on Ebay, he likes WGSH quite a bit as well.

From having lost to him, he does.

Doesn't Glen Danzig also collect Megos?
