Exclusive Jet Jungle Figure

Last year the Mego Community was stunned by a newly discovered MIB Mego World’s Greatest Super Heroes figure out of South Africa: Jet Jungle – The Fittest Man in the World! Previously unknown to collectors, the knowledge of this figure soon spread so that within mere days other loose Jet Jungle figures were identified. For more info on Jet Jungle, his history, and his sponsor “Jungle Oats”, see J.J.’s page in the WGSH section of the Mego Museum.
Created as an exclusive reproduction for MegoMeet 2006 by Museum members Chris “ChrisDVM” Johnson, Mike “mego73” Rogers, and Jess “MegomanJess” Cameron, this figure is made with of a blend of vintage and reproduction parts, and will be available for purchase in the MegoMeet Dealer’s Area. This figure is available only at MegoMeet 2006. Quantities are extremely limited, so make sure you pick yours up before they’re all gone!


Exclusive Jet Jungle Card



Earlier this year, the Mego Museum folks created two cards of vintage Mego figures as a free promotional item to raise awareness of the Museum, and Mego collecting in general. No one realized the incredible response that these cards would generate, and thus was a series of cards born.
Created exclusively for MegoMeet 2006 by the fine folks at the Mego Museum is this card features one of the most recent and spectacular discoveries in all of Mego Collecting: Jet Jungle! This card is #38 in the Mego Museum Collector’s Card series, and best of all: It’s absolutely free! Be sure to pick one up in the MegoMeet Dealer’s area.
