    Mego Meet: Kids Custom Contest!

    This Sunday at Mego Meet Power-Con, don’t miss the Kid’s Custom Contest hosted by Brue and Lily. Kids at Power-Con will have access to free bodies and parts to make their own creations and win prizes. It’s an annual tradition and all are welcome. Special thanks to Steve, Moore Absolutely Retro and Figures Toy Company…

      it was hard to get going. I only attended Sunday It was in a shared environment not just mego meet. It was different.

      But everything came together. We had 10 participants -on par with previous years.

      Participants and their parents seemed very pleased.

      Steve Moore provided bodies and most of the parts. Many others threw in parts and prizes.

      I scraped together a less than bare minimum craft supplies (I should have brought some. but forgot).

      Lily sat at the table and help participants.

      My other daughter (16) Eleanor made the long 7 minute trip to Mego Meet with thanks to Bill McFarland. She participated and helped facilitate. Due to relationship to the judges, we agreed she would be assigned 10th place.

      All kids except 1 took their figure and a prize home. We couldn't locate 1 girl :(

      The winner and runner up and Ed Nagy's family didn't want the responsibility of returning the trophy, so it went to tenth place Eleanor to display, keep safe and return.

      Hope to see you next year.

          You guys did a FANTASTIC job of this, especially considering the new environment. Amazing stuff!

          I didn't take any pics because I was in a panel.
