      I'm guessing at least 2 more Facts of Life characters will be offered, probably Blair and Mrs Garrett, in seperate waves.

      Not sure how many more sitcom character series will be done, but if it continues, then I am hoping for Seinfeld and
      Three's Company.

        ^ I have seen a few friends on FB, not Mego collectors but just Facts of Life fans, who are excited about the figures and wishing for Blaire, Natalie, and Mrs. Garrett. On the one hand, I feel like Mego might just do 3 of the girls in these Target waves and be done if they aren't big sellers. On the other hand, I feel like how do they not make Natalie? That would be like making the Fantastic 4 and not making Invisible Girl. The foursome will be incomplete.

            I'm glad to hear that KISS is in the stores. I thought the face looked a little odd in the teaser photo, but I'm holding out until I see the figure for myself!

            I'd hope they'd do Natalie before Mrs Garrett.

            I agree.

              Grabbed Spock, Frankenstein, and Greg at the North Garland Tx store. Have two Gorns, Samantha, and two Phoebes still on the pegs.

And finished my rounds on Niagara Falls Blvd. So either these stores have been bought out or hopefully they will be restocked within a couple days! Good luck to you!
                It is what it is. I'd never begrudge another collector for finding what they want.

                Funny thing is, I hit both Targets on Transit between Wednesday and Thursday and neither had anything. Earlier in the week, instead of going to the Walden store, I went to the North Buffalo Target and saw nothing there either. If that was the first store you stopped in, not going there may have been my mistake; they may have them all earlier in the week.

                I did stop at the Walden Target and picked up a Wizard of OZ set for $24.99, so I got something from the new wave. I haven't seen any new 14" figures yet.

                  I found a lone Samantha figure in Oregon at the Jantzen Beach Target yesterday. They had nothing else from wave two.

                    Did pretty good at the Target in Burbank today. Two Frankensteins, a Gorn, and Cliff with a busted up card that I didn't have to feel bad about opening.

                    They had Greg, Samantha, and Kelly Bundy, as well as lots of WOZ and Full House.
                    Expectation is the death of discovery.

                        As a collector who often can't decide if I should open a card or leave a figure carded, I feel good about picking up figures on beat-up cards. It makes my decision much easier!

                          Today I found Samantha, Gorn, Richie, kris, and Starchild. I also saw the Full House two pack, but am going to wait to get it, because I already had six figures on me and my back pack wouldn't hold it. I'm sure it'll be easy to find later. I found the Gorn in the Halloween stuff, discarded by a previous shopper. What a sucker!!! Now it's MINE!!

                            STOP THE PRESSES, I can't believe it, to my astonishment I walked into my local Target, which is about a 10 minute walking distance from my house and after checking for almost 2 months, I had to do a double take, and I seen wave 2, (1) Cliff and (2) Kelly Bundy and (2) Facts of Life Jo. These were not on an end cap they were mixed in with the WWE wrestlers
                            they didn't have a tag price, they were under WWE for $10.99 I did take the Cliff to the price check scanner and it came up as Mego Cheers Cliff priced at 12.99

                            Now I was told by sales clerks more than once, that this store location was not getting mego figures, they never had any wave 1 figures but when I checked this weekend, there were these ones mentioned. I'm thinking did this particular store get these accidentally from a warehouse person mixing these in with the WWE figures? I just think that because there was only 3 characters offered and they were mixed in with the WWE figures, with no mego display or mego peg tags.

                            It's confusing to me, but at the same time it's a hopeful omen. Now I'll have to keep checking to see if any more show up.

                            It's just really strange that they never got wave 1, being told they weren't going to carry them, and then just happening to see 3 figures from wave 2 out of the blue. I originally went there to pick up Madden 19 for my PS4 and had to pass the toy section, and decided what the heck, I'll take a quick look to see if there's any mego figures, honestly wasn't expecting to see anything.

                              What a find! It sounds like wave 2 is really rolling in. I hope the Gorn in the Halloween section was left by a fickle adult rather than a kid who's mom turned him down.

                                Congratulations on your find! I hope that will mean more to come at that location! I picked up Spock and also found 2 Greg and 2 of the wave 2 Charmed girl in the WWE section of a Target here in GA. My OCD got the better of me and I put the ones I didn't buy in the Mego section...then I rearranged the display so each peg held multiples of the same characters. I put the two Charmed characters next to each other and Greg next to Alice.
