Modern Mego Figure Collector Guide
Mego made its return to the action figure market in 2018, with 8 inch and 14 inch figures that called back to their classic toys of the 1970s and 80s.
The figures, which include movie and TV characters, as well as musicians and legendary notables, made their retail debut exclusively at Target. They are now available from retailers (both brick-and-mortar and online) nationwide.
Initial waves of figures were limited to 10,000 and included a numbered sticker. Boxed sets are listed by wave, as well as separately, in their own category.
