    This is a tough one. Off the top of my head:

    Adventure People TV Crew Set
    Hot Wheels Race Track - The orange track things. I had cars, but no tracks.
    Green Machine
    Stretch Armstrong Monster Guy Thingy
    Six Million Dollar Man Space Capsule that turned into an operating room where you could hook those hoses up to his arm and whatnot. That was cool.

      Folks were great, no complaints but they drew the line at:

      Shogun Warriors
      Buck Rogers
      Stretch Monster (the unfortunate death of Stretch Armstrong may have been to blame)

        That was an awesome setup. I got mine at the same time as my SMDM and loved it. It's one of the toys on my "need to replace one day" but I haven't been able to snag one cheap enough yet and I don't want an incomplete one as there are so many little parts with it.

          I wanted the 12" Mego Lex Luthor. Guess my parents didn't think it looked like a fun toy.

              We had that but it was a shared toy with my 2 brothers

              I wanted Crossfire,Chute's Away and Horror Make-up.

              I did get the Horror Make-up but my Nan said to my Mum i was not old enough,so she took it back to the shop,how cruel parents can be. LoL

                    I had that set. I used to use it in tandem with my CAH Superman and pretend it was WGBS covering a story.
                    It's all good!

                        Hmmmm....

                        Dunno if it counts, but back in the day I was a HUGE fan of "Logan's Run;" and my mom has a letter to Santa I wrote asking for a Sandman uniform and gun.

                        Didn't get it though.

                          Oh man, forgot about that one. I had one - you should be glad they took it back. It was never as good as they made it look on telly.

                                Easy: 1974 Montgomery Ward's Christmas catalog exclusive Mego Alter Egos ! I looked at that page for hours, but never got them. I can't complain too much, though, as I managed to get the majority of the WGSH, only ones I never had as a boy were Lizard, Green Arrow, Thor, Isis, Batgirl, Supergirl, Catwoman and Wonder Woman !
