Fun With LOST Megos: "Two players, two sides. One is light. One is dark."

I knew I wanted a backgammon board 

for Mego Locke. I searched and searched

on eBay and online stores specializing in

miniatures.  Everything was either 1:6 (Barbie)

scale or 1:12 scale.....nothing 1:9 scale!

8 months later, I found it!  I entered measurements

of standard backgammon board into 

calculator and divided by nine for Mego size

to be certain. Eureka!

I also decided to make some backdropsfor my LOST Megos.  

My dining room table just doesn't capture 

the essence of of LOST properly.

A 3-panel project board supplied 4 backdrops.

Each backdrop is a familiar LOST location,

printed as a 4-page poster, and adhered to project board.

I set up in my back yard, added some play sand

and voila!....the beach!

The part of Walt is played by a Mego "Buckwheat"

from the Our Gang/Little Rascals series of toys.

I found him for $8.16 on eBay.

(yeah, I know... one cent off!)

I removed his boots and replaced his shirt

with a more Walt-like fashion choice

from a Bratz Boyz doll.

I used a small paper punch to

make the backgammon pieces that

Mego Locke is holding.

It is the paper punch

I purchased to make Mego Hurley's

Connect Four game.
