Mego of the Day: Pocket General Zod


It's impossible to kneel towards a guy if you don't have articulation there. General Zod wasn't a high point for the pocket heroes but hey, a new character is a new character.....

Mego of the Day: Super Clown


Mego of the Day is Super Clown, one of many "Clown Arounds" that Mego released in the early eighties. Mine could be in better condition.


We don't have a clown around gallery, sorry....

Mego of the Day: Humanoid


Mego of the Day is the incredibly elusive, foreign exclusive figure from the 1980 Walt Disney film "The Black Hole". A background group of characters, the humanoid is of particular interest to collectors due to figure only being sold in Canada and Italy.

America's Favorite T.V and Comic Hero

batman mego This page is from the 1977 for "Johnny's Toys" a KY/OH based chain of toystores and features a tribute to the Batman (and some marvel characters snuck in there for good measure), interesting that they're still using RC Batman years after he was discontinued, must have confused a pile of kids.

Meg Clearance in 1983

A President's day sale after Mego's demise shows clearance pricing on everything, including the World's Greatest Superheroes! Sure, the ad shows Batman but I bet it was mostly Hulks.....
