    Mego Richie 1971 price check

    Does anyone have any idea what Richie goes for? Not the Richie from Happy Days, but the one that was made in '71. It's basically a Fighting Yank figure that has flocked hair. So it's almost 12 inches tall. I found one at the flea market this morning. The figure is in very nice shape, with shirt, pants and shoes. Has original box, but it's pretty badly torn up. I also have some carded outfits (no outer box) that I never knew what they belonged to. Turns out they are Richie's by the pictues on his box. I'd be grateful for any and all info since I can't find any info on the site about him.

    I know your pain. The site focuses mainly on the 8" Megos and then pinpoints that to mainly the WGSH (which is totally understandable) but I sure would like to see the other lines expanded with as much information and pics as the 8" stuff. Not even so much for collecting purposes but it's just nice to see all that other stuff Mego made. Cher was a huge line but woe be the Cher collector who might want to research that line. Very minimal info. I'm hoping one day the museum will expand into all things Mego. Even all the pre-Action Jackson era stuff and all the games and things, too.
    After all this is the Mego Museum, not the WGSH museum.

      You need people with info on all of those to write the articles for the galleries

        You're right. Sometimes I forget that the info in here is from people that love and collect Megos just like you and me. It didn't just appear on the internet from the ether, LOL. A lot of trial and error and corrections have probably been made along the way to make the MM what it is today. I guess we need some experts from other lines to step up so we can be more and more comprehensive. A little bit at a time and things will blossom.
        I was trying to get some instruction sheets (copies) for the museum from ebay sellers but some people seem to just ignore you if you're not wanting to buy what they are selling.

          Plus I don't feel qualified to write up stuff. I'm not an expert but I know I have quite a bit of knowledge just from collecting. I also see pics of things in the museum that could use nicer examples and better shots (or more detailed at least) all the time. I'm not sure that offering that (pics of my stuff) would be what they're looking for. I'm sure they are busy enough already.
          I also seem to find a lot of discrepancies (at least that's the way I'm seeing things) and don't want to bombard Dave & Brian with a bunch of "nit-picky" things.
