WOW!! I am definately picking this set up, like some of the other old timers here, I had these as a kid and didn't realize that they had actually made accessories for the figures too. I did a little google search and came up with this on YouTube and would love to see this stuff down the road. As far as the stuff Hasbro is doing that's similiar to the original Mego, I like some of it. I'll probable pick up the Cyclops eventually. Something to remember, different strokes for different folks There are plenty of things out there that I don't necessarily collect, but you'd be suprised at how well it sells. I think the POTA and ST Mego stuff will do well though, since there are alot of folks out there trying to recoup what mom and dad threw out

I've been eyeing that cyclops... thing is it was too much at $19.99, then it was marked down to $14.99, now it's at $9.99 soon it will be $5.99... then I may buy one!

Old Timers !?! Yikes!! I never thought of myself that way. My mother made me get rid of my Megos and GIJoes if I wanted to get all the new Star Wars stuff that was coming out. . It haunts me to this day.

Oooo! That Hurst Sgt Stinky! Well with the re-released Action Team Joes on the shelves and these Mego Repo's that should help ease the pain and heal old wounds!

I played with these as a kid. I am fighting the urge to buy them.

That's until you see them Mark Nostalgia will kick in and that will be all she wrote

[Gothneo]

Yeah... Honsetly, I mostly had 1/6 scale Joes growing up, and it's a major reason why I still love the 1/6 scale collectibles.

I think I may end up redefiing my collection to where POTA is one of the few things I collect (along with star Trek!)
