      Yeah, I feel the same way. I don't think Marty was doing anything unusual for a person in his position at that time.
      That's the concensus, it was a cost of doing business and everyone had to do it.

        The Government contended that Abrams and several former Mego officers "secretly mis­appropriated" more than $100,000 over ten years "to enrich themselves and bribe others."


        That seems like nothing for a multi-million dollar business then, and now you probably couldn't find a company slush fund as low as 10K a year.

          The story I heard from a couple of old rack jobbers was that Mego was selling out the "backdoor" of one of their warehouses here on Long Island and claiming that the figures were either damaged, stolen, or destroyed. Is there any truth to that story???
          "When not too many people can see we're all the same
          And because of all their tears,
          Their eyes can't hope to see
          The beauty that surrounds them
          Isn't it a pity".
