      Yeah the family and I were there. They have 3 shows a year, but I only set up at the spring one. We had a good show, but man the vintage 12 inch GI Joe stuff was just not moving. That was a bummer for me. The Lego stuff was plentiful, but sold really well for me.

      Lots of beater Megos at ok prices. I saw an Emerald City playset.

      The only thing I bought was a DVD. The kids scored giant Power Ranger Megazords which still has them happy.

      The shows are really picking up around the midwest.

          Great pics!

          I was there and several of the items I bought are actually in your pictures! :-)

          Pic #2 - Big Jim Sports Camper in box (Dealer there was very nice and actually took the time to dig through his extra parts to find the couple of items that were missing in order to make the set complete!)

          Pic #19 - Hot Wheels 1966 Batmobile (You can just see part of the box at the top center of the pic.)

          Pic #43 - DC Super Heroes View-Master set.

          Pic #66 - Space:1999 Colorforms set. (Bottom left corner of pic.)

          The only disappointment was the serious absence of Six Million Dollar Man/Bionic Woman items. The only SMDM item I saw in the entire show was ONE Transport/Repair Station!! WTH?

          I never knew this show existed so this was my first time going. Definitely going to the next one in September. I had a great time! I picked up several things for my collection and saw so much other cool stuff.

                    Heads up everyone west of Columbus! This will be on the Sunday of Mego Meet weekend. If you happen to be driving back to Indy or Chicago on I-70, you'll be driving right by this show.

                              great pics - seeing as how I am 3.5 miles from the show, I probably should have gone.
                              but think of the money I saved.

                                I forgot all about it until I heard a radio spot late in the week.
