Mego Fighting Yank figures - how much?

[cjefferys]

I picked up a couple Mego Fighting Yank boxed outfits at a fleamarket yesterday. The boxes aren't that great, but hey, they were only 12 bucks each, I have a hard time passing up any kind of Mego "in the wild", and I couldn't find anything else to buy (I hate leaving a flea market empty handed). I found out that they weren't worth much (I had no idea), so thought maybe I could pick up some loose, nekkid Fighting Yanks to put the outfits on, and start a new Mego side collection. How much do such figures usually go for? They don't need to have any clothing or accessories, just in nice condition, with good head paint, etc. I'm not up on this stuff at all. Thanks!

Most FY are common but there are some rare ones.

Do you know how much a common, loose, naked figure in nice condition would run for? 10 bucks or so perhaps?

Hiya Chris,

Are you looking for the joe lookalikes, or the later blow molded ones? If you are not particular in regards to the bodies, the blow molded ones seem more common and less expensive.

They might also look decent on the Hasbro blow molded Defender with the bulletman head. just a thought. That bm portrait is classic.

I wouldn't be picky about the body style, I'd just want some genuine Mego released figures to display the outfits on. The Defender figures are nice, but I'd like to keep everything Mego if possible.

I posted pics in the "New Mego acquisitions?" thread in the Mego Buzz forum if you're curious.

Palitoy had a bunch at MM08 for $7 each. I still kick myself for not getting one. Came with shirt, pants, boots and hat. Of course that doesn't help you now.

$7.00? D'oh!
