    Montréal Comic Con

    Well, just got back from the first day (3 day event) of the Montreal Comic Con. I went there with a thick wad to buy some Vintage Mego`s but... These were the only figures that I found.

    Have to say, very disapointed... Not one vintage Mego in the entire show !

    Mego`s are a rare breed in Québec Canada.

      Wow, I never run into Canucks at shows.

      Also, vintage anything is rare at Toronto Comic Con, those things are pricing themselves out of such things.

        I miss the old days of the Toronto Toy shows , back in the 90s... Use to pick up tons of stuff. I remember buying a full box of Micronauts for something like $80 or something.

        I got both Canucks figures signed by the artist of the book, they had a booth at the show. The only good thing really of the show for me really.

        Proud Canadian Heroe ! lol...

          You and me both, my $2 Black Hole Humanoid is the score of scores on Airport road. Sadly, I think the TTCS show may be dead, everyone was 20 years older than me and nobody wants to take it over.

          Oh yeah Richard would still have some, I sold out my inventory ages back and never run into my little guy.

            Are you Brian by any chance ? You were looking for pants for your Mego Clark Kent ?

                We (my brother and myself) use to see you and your girlfriend at every toy show back in the 90s.

                Wow... memories.

                Those were the good days of collecting. I use to fill the trunk of my car with new purchases at every show !

                  Right, I'm going to guess your last name is Fortin?

                    Fortier !

                    Wow, Great memory !!!

                    I was working in Comics and Sport Cards distribution back in the day. I sold to all the stores accross Canada. I was and still am a big Mego collector.

                    I came accross some 50th Megos 3 months ago and got right back into it. Got lucky and bought a few collections.

                    I watched some your videos, one of you Collection room yesterday night, very nice ! you have an envious collection. Really enjoyed your secret Identity video also.

                    Brings back lots of good memories.
