    Nice deals! Especially on the fist fighters. That supply won't last.

        Great deals. I don't have the fist fighters or wonder woman. I have the titans, and wish I got them at that price.

          Man, I wish they had that 66 Batman accessory set on sale. I'm tempted by the Titans, but I have the real deal, although most are far from mint or complete.

            yeah I got the other set for my nephew. Granted it will be a while before he plays with them since he is just a baby but if I do not buy them now I will have to restart on the hunt.

              Really, considering all the other sales EE has on other Mego-like figures I wasn't impressed with this sale.

              $7.50 off on each Fist Fighter is nothing to sneeze at but it sure isn't a massive savings either. Add import, duties, taxes and shipping to Canada as well as the weak exchange rate and I can actually pick these up at local toy shows or comic shops for less. Too bad the free shipping offer didn't extend to us Canucks.

                Wait, was the SUPER POWERS wave 1 w/ FF Superman, Green Arrow, Aquaman & Shazam on SALE for $90 like the Super Powers FF Batman wave 2? I already have x2 SETS of Titans, x1 SET of each Super Powers FF (x1 Wave 1 & x1 Wave 2), & have 2 sets (x4) of Wonder Woman, & x2 of Batman retro wave 1,2,3. So I only want the FTC Super Powers wave 1 so I can have an Aquaman, Green Arrow & Shazam to open, mess around w/ the FF action (ever had FF as a lad) & them bil & pop those heads & strip dem boys nekked & stick them on the smaller FTC China bodies to match my loose Batman retro waves 1+2+3, Superman wave 1, Wonder Woman, & Teen Titans. So if the FTC Super Powers wave 1 set was on sale for $90, & they have them in stock, I want them for $90 now since they are still on the sale page (at orig. $119 price) & in Stock!

                    A few hours after I posted about the EE sale NOT showing the FTC Super Powers FF wave 1 figure SET for $90 (like the Batman SP FF wave was), EE must of fixed the issue as NOW they are showing the $90 sale price. That makes each figure $22.50 each w/ FREE S/H. Although I already have x2 Superman figures, I think I'll purchase this set so I can transfer over GREEN ARROW, AQUAMAN & SHAZAM over to reg China made FTC bodies to avoid waiting for their single releases.

                    Only reservation is, Although I was SUPER impressed w/ FTC's Batman Super Powers wave 2 figure set (Great QC on the paints & the costuming), I was *NOT at all impressed w/ my 1 set of FTC Super Powers wave 1 Fist Fighters. Not impressed at all.

                    1. Shazam's belt was sewn very crookedly w/ red dye seeping into the belt & especially the belt's yellow thread. + the yellow cuffs are sewn w/ a lil red showing beneath them.
                    2. Superman's costume was sewn differently than my x2 FTC Superman figs from my x2 SET of Superman wave 1.
                    - ^RED trunks were enormous compared to the regular SM release. They were sewn much longer & travel down the legs towards the tops of the thighs. Cape @ neck not as neat.
                    3. Green Arrow's baggy "flesh" arms is reminiscent of Mego's GA, but the FTC FF GA's green cuffs were sewn w/ FLESH arms showing on the outside of both arm cuffs, & underneath on 1 side making NO sense.
                    - ^one side of GA's leggings is pulling & straining the thread @ the stiches connecting his LEFT light green legging to his darker green tunic. It is perfectly sewn on the right side.
                    4. AQUAMAN's costume would be PERFECT But, his black trunks are sewn so ODDLY w/ literally NO rhyme or reason to their shape. The are like black teeny tiny bikini underwear that were bought at an outlet that specializes in selling "Irregular" garments for pennies on the dollar.

                    So for $22.50 each (cheaper than FTC regular releases) + FREE S/H, I am VERY tempted to pull the trigger & get these now & hope the costumes are closer to the outstandingly amazing job I got w/ my EE FTC Batman wave 2 Super Powers FF set, & hopefully not a repeat of the lack luster costumes on the FF wave 2 Super Powers wave.

                    So I guess the big benefits for me is I can finally have a FTC AQUAMAN, GREEN ARROW & SHAZAM to open & put them on spare FTC 8" bodies I have laying around (exactly x3 that I would need coincidentally) instead of waiting for their single release (although I'll still get x1 of those 3 to have in my FTC MIB re-mego collection), & the spare FFG Superman I don't need, can be my 1 open FF I can use, since I decided to keep my EE BOGO 40% Off + FREE order of x1 of: FTC Super Powers wave 1 & 2, MIB. So I think I might bite, & if the figures show up in messed up gear, I'll just put them back on their FF bodies to play w/ when my x2 nephews (& eventually my Grandson & Granddaughter) come over & we bypass playing MOTUC or JLU, & play "Megos" as we call them. We have only played w/ them 3 times maybe as I worry about them breaking A LOT, but the FTC re-mego FF are begging to be played w/ IMO.

                      I bit the bullet. I kind of wanted the FTC Batman retro CARRYING CASE, but I still hope 1 day those carrying cases will go CHEAP! Well I'm happy that in 1-2 weeks TOPS (has been 4 days to 1 week delievery from EE's FREE shipping my last 4-5 orders), I'll have the needed heads & costumes to finally catch up w/ my FTC DC Mego repros & have Aquaman, Green Arrow & Shazam in my hads for the 1st time since the 70s! I also look forward to having a 2nd set of at least 1 wave of FTC Fist Fighters, so I can open them up & try them out for the 1st time! I know 1 of my nephews is going to be stoked to recreate the old Mego FF commercial, just w/ Supes & company instead of the Batman wave. It should be fun!



                      *Boywonder0: *THANKS 4 the heads up on this! I had stopped checking EE's Daily Deals for about a week now! Do they have Daily Deals all year?

                        Bad luck for me. I stated on the MM Facebook how had the EE sale for FTC started on Thurs or Friday I'd have double dipped and bought the Teen Titan and series 1 re-Mego.
                        Maybe it'll work out and the 2nd series for Batman 1966 FTC will be on sale tomorrow or the next day, which I'll gladly buy instead.

                          Too bad those EE sales don't last. I've taken advantage of such deals in the past. Since I missed the deal earlier this week I saved some money by going through an eBay power seller. It's a shame EE turned away nearly $200 from me by not offering their deals a tad bit longer. I'm slowly buying up FTC re-Mego offerings and one daughter of mine will be happy to see Supergirl as my oldest was happy with FTC reissue of Wonder Woman. I got a really good deal on a new FTC Mxy reissue.

                          Anyway, I purchased the Batman 1966 series 2, Mxy, and Shame all from one seller. I truly love the 1966 line. My daughter's eagerly want a Batgirl. Variants, carrying cases, and (the neat, but expensive) accessory packs aside I'll soon be caught up like most of you and all I'll simply need is Madhatter to complete the BM66 series to date. So far I've noticed Madhatter commands an extra $5-$10 when bought separately, I dunno why, maybe it's because of the new-ness and fresh action figure smell.
