We’ve mentioned these guys before but seeing as we didn’t get much insight and it’s almost Halloween, what better time to reintroduce them and perhaps get some pieces to the puzzle. Above are the Mystery Mad Monsters bendy figures that we procured from the UK a few years back. The seller knew nothing about…
We got a lovely treat in our mailbox today courtesy of our pal Mark, who is always digging up Canadian rarities. Seeing as it’s Thanksgiving in Canada right now, we’re super thankful that he thought of us. Mark uncovered the incredibly rare Magnetic Batman and Robin in Grand Toys Packaging, something we knew existed but…
We got a splendid surprise this month courtesy of Museum founder Robyn Adams, a set of original Mego proof cards that originally came from former Mego director of creative services Tom Lavely. Some of the other items that Tom managed to save included this original proof card for the Pocket Superheroes and cards…
Couldn’t help but notice this Mego Superman cameo in this 1977 Licensing Corporation of America (which was a division of Warner Brothers) booklet extolling the wonders of toy licensing. Also depicted are a Batman bop bag by Mulitple Toys and the Empire Toys Bat Cycle. Click here for the Mego Museum Photo Review…
We were elated last year when NECA announced the National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation license, one of our favourite holiday films and last year’s Santa Clark made it into our Christmas decorations.

Nice vintage addition to the Mego Museum archives today an original 1979 toy trade piece about the up coming science fiction block buster The Black Hole.

We love a good mystery at the MegoMuseum and our new friend Rainman reached out to us via our sister site PlaidStallions.com with this handsome fellow. He writes: “Hi I have had this strange vinyl Hulk figure for years and haven’t had any luck in identifying the manufacturer. The person I got from in the…

This giant sized Trade advertisement from 1979 celebrates Mego combining stretch toys with the Superheroes licensing. Pretty inspired and something that has been repeated through the decades. Unfortunately, Kenner (purveyors of the Stretch Armstrong line of toys) believed the “big idea” the Mego stretched was theirs and promptly sued. Many former Mego executives…
