    That started quick, but not unforeseen.

        I think they'll be enough to go around. not worried about it enough to pay almost 3x the price.

              Total agreement. Besides, looks like I can order any figures my local Target doesn't have direct from Target's website. No need for eBay here!

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                  I'm sure the ebay prices will come down once these are widely available.

                    At averaging just 5 of each characters per store, that's not a lot...and that's if every target store even gets them.

                    10,000 each divided by 1850 stores is very low quanity

                      When scalpers started in on the 100 Page Giant DC comics at Wal*Mart I decided I was not supporting them and this will carry over to Mego as well. In addition, I will no longer buy any product at all from sellers who are scalping these types of products now, not just the products in question. It is pretty much scalp and lose me as a customer forever. I know I am only one potential customer and it doesn't make a damn bit of difference, but even if there started to be a handful more who made a similar decision it might start to cut into it.

                        I made a decision back in the 90s not to support scalpers when I was buying Playmates Star Trek and Star Wars: Power of the Force figures and have held to that decision all these years.
