    New Mego pics inside.

    With a little patience and perseverance, we were able to work with our local Target store and get stuff from the back room. They have quite a bit, probably everything... and by their own admission, are 1-2wks behind at getting new-stock out to the floors. Plus, The Boy and I had first-hand experience with the staff over the past few days...some staff have no clue, no desire to be helpful. Other staff stand out and go above and beyond to treat you right. We went from staff telling us (in the SAME day) that there are no Megos, never will be...to a few hours later standing at the counter in Electronics with a guy busting open boxes that they've had sitting in the backroom for days...

    These are worth the wait. Quality product. No pea-stance tightly wound twisted bodies either. They stood on their own, with good balance on their first try. Can't wait to see what the future has in store...

        That's great, Glad to hear you scored a few of them. Quick question...Can the arms open out horizontally like Type S bodies?

          Your pics make me want to add "I dream of Jennie" to my wish list. The others were already on it. *Groan* already wanting to make another trip to target tonight just in case.

                The Target about a mile from me, in the Bronx, is always such a mess, I’m surprised they can ever find anything. I wouldn’t bother asking any employee there about Megos. If they show up in the toy department, they show up, but it might be another month or November.

                    Not a full 90 degrees like bandless bodies, but the bands used are far superior to FTC.

                    Incase anyone missed it (might already be on these very boards and I missed it, but I want to spread the word) - Marty made a public video announcement.
                    Every Target will have product within the next ten days. Don't pay inflated eBay prices because you won't have to.

                    THAT is how business is done. Day #1, taking the time to address the fan base, the customer base. He heard, he listened, he talked. Mego gets more of my budget on that simple fact alone.

                        I talked to Doc some days ago, and he told. me that they were using O rings for the bodies.

                          I think it was only viewable if you’re a member of the Facebook Mego Ambassadors page..I shared it so my family and friends could see it...it’s on my wall, but they can’t see it.
