I currently use megs leather conditioner.

I want something more shiny. Can you recommend a good leather conditioner that makes the leather shiny and new again

Thanks

New leather is not really shiny in my opinion. I like Leather Master's products. Good stuff that just works! If you are looking for shiny though you might want to consider something else.

Shiny leather! Do you like patent leather shoes?
 
Like stated before leather master is a great choice to consider
 
I do not believe there is such a thing,
as a good leather conditioner.

It's:
Clean and Protect. Clean and Protect. Clean and Protect!!!

And I believe in looking new, but looking new not equal to looking dressed "shiny"
 
I use Chemical Guys Leather kit. Mine leather isn't shiny though, but this cleans it and makes it smell good (good as in like new).

This.

Protect from new / Clean regularly / Deep Clean once or twice a year/ Re-protect / ...
The only conditioner leather needs is water (as per judyb)

If we are talking about non-coated leather, or coated leather in poor condition (cracked, etc), then a conditioner may be in order.
 
leather should not be shiny. Clean leather should have a matte finish. You can use a conditioner if the leather seems dry or cracked. Even on new leather (read clear coated vinyl) you won't get much benefit out of the conditioner, but if it has a UV protectant in it, you will get the benefit of that. Even leather conditioner should be dry buffed to a matte or at least satin finish. On newer cars I just clean it and then protect with 303 Aerospace. I use Chemical Guys Leather Conditioner if a little extra TLC is needed (dry or cracked).
 
If shiny is the look you want, Meguiars Gold Class wipes, like what GettingStarted said.
 
If the leather was shiny to start it was laminated leather. A leather product really is not going to do you much good.
I would clean it with a good APC like Optimum Power Clean great for interiors and leather. Then use a good dry to the touch plastic/vinyl treatment like CG VRP. Optimum Opti-Bond may not be dry to the touch like the VRP you would need to look into that.
