Mego like sized vehicles data base

[livnxxxl]

This thread is here by created to serve as a on going updated data base of Mego like sized vehicles.

Please feel free to contribute pictures and info of any Mego like sized vehicles that you have seen, found or think can be used for Mego's.

Please keep in mind that the term "vehicles" does not have to necessarily be limited to cars and trucks here for database purposes. This could be boats, motorcycles, scooters, bicycles or what have you as long as of course it is in the ball park of fitting with Mego sized figures.

Thank you.

I will start off with this covered wagon that I had found. This would be great for a Cowboys vs. Indians diorama or ???

Post pics with figures in it so we can see how good the scale is.

That's a good idea. It would also be nice to know where these vehicle came from too.

Excellent.. I'm compiling ideas for a Fantasticar.., most likely customizing a vintage Joe ATV vehicle with a new bottom.

If there are any existing vehicles to customize/repaint from other lines, that would be a nice help.

Thank you gang! Yes, pictures with the figures and any info as to where to buy or the mfg are also great ideas as well. I really appreciate your input.

My future pictures will have the action figures next to the rides to give a better idea of the scale.

I will also try and track down some info on that wagon. Some times it becomes more challenging to obtain info when I pick stuff up at thrift stores and there is no identification on some of the items to begin with.

Finding stuff with the tags and the original packaging would help greatly. Although buying something in a used state once the packaging and or original tag is long gone is more the reality more often than not when buying stuff used.

Not to despair though. If it exist someone out there will know and may be able to help us ID it and add to our ever growing database.

I have a Rescue Heroes vehicle that looks something like a bumper car. It looks great with mr. fantastic in it and I always thought that a set of 4 of 'em would work great to make the original fantasti-car. I'll try to find it and take a pic.

Thanks for the info. I thought I remembered seeing these type of wagons as a kid going to the flea market.

Here are some more recent pictures that I took of the wagon with Mego figures and the POTA stallion to give a better idea of the size.

The above Rescue Heroes vehicles by Fisher Price CAN be used with some modifications.

First, I need to cut out some of the plastic to accomodate the legs and feet to fit. I will use my dremel for this procedure. I will post pictures of the completed vehicles once I am done "hacking" them up.

My brother had one of these as a lamp in the 70's. Wow that brings back some nice memories.
