For me I'm really hooked on the Re-Mego's. I'm enjoying the hunt again. As far as the originals I've narrowed the collection way down to the one's I had as a kid (Supes, Bat's and Robin plus the Dukes). And while I will always love the original Mego's I gotta admit that the re-Mego's are alot more fun. The main reason being that 1. They are new 2. I can buy them off the shelf 3. There's more coming. 4. Being new they really help me enjoy the hobby beyond "simple" nostalgia or "investment"' they are simply fun.

Re-Mego collectors do you also collect the original Megos?

I have my Megos from when I was a kid. I have some beaters I bought for the kids to play with and then I have the Retros for them to play with as well. I haven't really sought out any minty Megos to be honest. I just do not have display space.It's all good!Comment

Is the toy room what I think it is? A gallery of everyones Mego displays?
I need to get to 51!
That being said, I should have a nice Tarzan waiting for me this week as well as a Human Torch. The Mego bug really bit me back in December when I got a black bat cycle. I've been wanting one for some time then the figures stated to call...Joker, Captain America, Robin...and a sweet Spiderman courtesy of Rob. Also working on my first two kit bashes. When I pick up another Spidey, I'm gonna make a Peter Parker changing into Spiderman and a Mary Marvel.
Then I'm gonna try and figure out how to post pictures!Comment

I have wanted Megos since the late 1980s but just couldnt afford them.
I got my Superhero love out on the Famous Covers binge when they came out.
I got interested again after the EMCE Apes and Trek were put out. I also had the CTTV reissues.
The only originals I would want are teh Sci Fi ones not reissued. I have Neptunian, Urko and Ursus, and want Gorn and Talos.
I think an 8" becomes a Mego for me if they have squishy heads and the old type two hands.Comment

One word absolutely. Anything and almost everything Mego. I have to get around to getting more pictures together to update my virtual toy room. I have so much and no time to get it all photographed.In The " Real World " Vampires Do Not Sparkle. They Burn In the Sun !
