    Retro-Action DC Super Heroes

    Today to my surprise I found the Retro-Action DC Super Heroes Lex Luthor and Sinestro figures hanging on the pegs at TRU! They only had these two, wish I had found Superman and Green Lantern. anyways, anyone else finding these in stores yet? Each cost $19.99 a piece.

    oops. Sorry I meant to put this in the Mego like section!

        Another reason why we should only have 1 Megolike forum

        Having said that, it's cool to hear they're finally showing up in TRU

            I went to TRU last weekend, in Colorado, near where I used to live. It was Closed down. WBS.

              *Sigh* Checked TRU in Akron, Ohio--none stocked...

              I just know I"m going to get shafted finding these on the secondary market, where you can't even see the fig to tell if your getting a good one.
              WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                Why do I get a pop-up asking for password to access "the-toyroom.com" when I try to read this thread?

                          I MIGHT check toys R us . The only guys who intrest me are the villians. Luckily I already have a couple of headless EMCE bodies.

                          Seriously, I'll say it again if they just kept to EMCE bodies a lot of fans would not be complaining.

                          These by no way are an improvement over the Silver Age DC figures so why not just give us Mego style bodies ?
