I think we should try to start organizing this:

Is ther a way we can get cases wholesale? If so I would propose to get the old hat out, and start collecting soon for Toys For Tots. We could make a huge donation in one shot, courtesy of your friends at the MegoMuseum or something.... (About time these kids get some decent stuff to play with since 1982....lol)

Hey, that's a pretty good idea.

[wilbs518]

Great idea! I'm in.

[AAAAA]

you have set up a PO box where people can send the money, and find out a ahead of time what is available ,shipping dates ,and when payment is do.
i suggest a shipment of girl dolls and cloths for the little girls who do not want superhero /adventure stuff.
I can order that from china direct.
we would have to star now .its a great idea, just a major undertaking

Huge undertaking is right, that's why I am thinking about it NOW. The girls thing is great as well, and I fully agree there should be a split. Anyone heve any resources we can tap for wholesaling? Barbie-esque would be suitable for the girls, but I feel they do deserve a product of equal quality. I think this community is awesome, and would love to be involved with getting this underway, any and all help would be appreciated, even a nudge in the right direction. I see people help one another left and right here, in their personal dilemmas as well as in their collections. I am really proud to be a member here and help when and where I can!

I think the girls should get a female 8in from Doc Mego and it can be Dina Mite esque in stead of barbie esque.

[bizzaro megomauler]

hence the esque.... We would have to see just what we can realistically afford, and gain acess to.

While a fine idea, I think the issues would be:

(1) You need an account w/Mattel to purchase cases straight from them.

(2) A minimum order is needed, like in the $20,000 range, as example, to just place a wholesale order (just a random number I grabbed).

And, ordering straight from Mattel is the only true wholesale path, getting them from Diamond etc. would be 1 level added.
