We have moved the Mego Museum Galleries to a new web platform to improve user experience on mobile devices. The content has not changed, but the navigation and responsiveness have been overhauled. It’s a massive undertaking and a continual work in progress, be gentle with us, there are no doubt many imperfections. The galleries are…
One of the nicer surprises this year were the 18″ Superheroes by Figures Toy Company which as someone more clever than me pointed out gave us the illusion we were three feet tall again. Entertainment Earth joined in the fun by creating their own exclusive version of many a collector’s “Holy Grail”, the removable…
Diamond Select Toys gave many of us a surprise when revealing the fifth in their series of ReMego Marvels produced in conjunction with EMCE toys. The “Merc with a mouth” wasn’t created when Mego roamed the earth but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been a steady favorite with the customizing community over the years. Thanks…
This rare and wonderful piece from Canada recently surfaced and it’s a neat look into how Mego distribution worked in the great white North. Growing up just outside of Toronto, this catalog, which is hobbled together from a variety of sources, solved more than one “why didn’t I get that” mysteries for me. For more…

Now collectors can add the figure of the man to their collection with the MIKE TYSON…
This very rare leaflet from Canadian Mego distributor Parkdale Novelty just recently surfaced, showcasing the wonderful different 1975 assortments of World’s Greatest Superheroes. The true beauty of this ad is the multitude of different stock art that was used, as many of these images were not used on any form of Mego packaging.
We’re pleased to unveil what will be the first of many documentary style shorts about Mego Toy Lines that will be added to the Museum Gallery. The first subject is the Mego Flash Gordon line, one of mego’s finest and definitely one that deserves more attention. Look for more of these shorts in the coming…
Last Saturday was Aw Yeah Mego Meet 2015, a benchmark year as we moved from our comfy home of ten years in Wheeling, WV to the windy city. Thanks to everyone who joined us this year and made it the success that it was. We’re already hard at work on 2016 and you can watch…
