Hey Folks,

Mego Meet tables are going fast, so if you can, let us know soon. 

Other than that, we're going to be doing a fundraiser for our bandwidth fund this February, so we can keep the ship afloat. It's going to be like PBS pledge week except instead of a tote bag (which is awesome) it will be a limited MegoMuseum collectible item.

Issue 9 of Toy-Ventures is nearly finished and it's a doozy if you're a Mego fan. 

Other than that, I hope you're having a good time with this stuff. I ping pong back and forth between the Museum forums and the Pod Stallions group when not working and well, I'm really glad to be a part of all of this.  

Cheers,
BraIn
Looks like a couple o' wiseguys are on their way to Figures Toy Company! FTC's expansion of their Three Stooges series of retro figures continues, and this week's #MMFTCNEWS showcases the two new additions to the line. Here's a sneak preview of the upcoming releases of latter day Stooges Joe Besser and Curly Joe DeRita!
 
Though there have been a variety of collectibles releases for Curly Joe over the years (including a figure releases in FTC's original Three Stooges toy line back in 1999), this marks the first time that there has been a Joe Besser toy! Three Stooges enthusiasts can now enjoy having a complete collection of all of their beloved Stooges by putting these two alongside their favorite Moe, Larry, Curly, and Shemp figures from FTC!
 
Look for further information on the releases date for these to come in a future edition of #MMFTCNEWS, along with updates on upcoming Stooges offerings like the "We Want Our Mummy" wave that will include the "mummy" that the boys bumped into in the famous short! Aside from The Three Stooges, there's the new Scrappy-Doo two pack that was recently released, an abundance of heroes and villains from the DC Universe, and much more in stock now at http://www.figurestoycompany.com! Don't forget to follow FTC on social media platforms for additional info on everything they have to offer, and join us right here each and every Friday for an exclusive #MMFTCNEWS update!

Mego Meet 2023 will become part of Power-Con August 11-13 in Columbus, Ohio. Greater Columbus Convention Center
400 North High Street
Columbus, Ohio 43215
USA Tickets can be purchased here when they become available:
https://thepower-con.com/tickets-exclusives/

Entrance to Power-Con will allow you access to the MegoMeet 2023 dealer’s block. In addition, there will also be Mego Meet-specific panels, rooms and events that we will announce over the coming months and weeks. Registration for those events will take place at the MM and will not include any extra costs.

Hotel Information: The show hotel is the Hilton, it’s across the street, and you don’t even have to go outside as the Hilton is connected to the convention center. There is a block of Power-Con/MegoMeet rooms here at a discounted rate, but I’d act fast.

Dealer Tables:
MegoMeet 2023 will have 20 dealer 6′ by 6′ booths at a discounted rate through Power-Con. They are 175 each and include one Power Con exhibitor pass with a table.

The Mego Museum is going to curate this space and we are favouring Vintage and creators from our custom community to give it the flavour we’re used to at Mego Meet.  If Mego Meet fills up, there are still tables available at the regular rate. Power-Con is handling all finances for this round of MegoMeet.

If you are interested in displaying in the “Mego Meet 2023” section, email MegoMeet2023@gmail.com. Let us know your name and an overview of what you plan to bring. 

This is the only way to get a Dealer Table in the Mego Section.

We will announce other MM activities and exclusives soon and hope to see you and keep MegoMeet alive in 2023.
