Wave 3, what have you found?

[wise guy]

I checked the Target were I found Werewolf, Kirk ,and Romulon and they restocked
with wave one and 4 more Draculas.They did have 4 Cowardly lions and a few Greg Brady's.
It seems like there is thousands more TV pegwarmers and only a few Werewolfs ,Romulons etc otherwise these should be plentiful online. I have no trouble at all finding most other
collectables, and video games at Target. This is a joke having to check 7 stores that
keep stocking wave 1.The stock clerks can't tell wave 1 from waves 2 or 3.

It’s the “exclusivity” which is fueling the issue beyond reason. It’s what drives the scum-of-the-earth scalpers to horde popular figures, which in turn has terrified Mego fans into feeling like they are never going to be able to find the stuff they want at retail.

The cherry on top of it all is Target and their sporadic releases which hit early or late, but never on time, and generally unknowlegable, unhelpful staff there to exacerbate things for you when you do decide to hit your 3rd or 4th Target of the day.

The salt on the wound is the fortunate few there to remind us of their good fortune with lines like “found my second Frankie, third Wolfman, fourth Gorn!”

I just hope Target hasn’t murdered Mego in the womb before they have the chance to be reborn properly once this “exclusivity” ends.

Today, more nothing. Still Alice, AJ hanging around one Paul Stanley with his head popped off, WOZ and Full House sets, loads of wave 2. at least 6-7 Samanthas. Looks like wave 3 or 4 will never see the light of day in Davenport. Pegs slap full of wave 1 refugees and wave two soon to be pegwarmers.

Got an email from Target this morning that the Romulan Commander that I had ordered but was on back order finally shipped. Now if that back ordered Werewolf would ship...

I saw quite a bit of wave 2 and some 3 today, though no scarce trek or Werewolf. Nabbed an Al/Leslie--yipee and I have an Extra DST Scotty for parts. Chachi and Cliff look good; Woody needs a more subtle deco but it's a good sculpt.

Saw 14" blue Batman (nicer than I expected), Lex, WW, pegwarmer Zod, Green Lantern (very nice), Batgirl (nice), and Flash (superb!!). Some parents were checking out the large figures and speaking well of them.

Very helpful and friendly staff, but poorly-informed of Mego.

Yes I finally got to order 2 Spocks!!!

I was shopping in my local Target today. For Wave 3 they had 3 or 4 Charmed Prue figures. I have not been collecting Charmed since the face sculpts look nothing like the actresses. They had one Marcia Brady. The top of the card was bent, so even at $12.99 it was still not worth it. They had the Sulu/Uhura set. I already got one at my other local Target so that was it for Wave 3.

Somebody scored the Kirk figures from the case with Marcia and Prue. Bummer.

I'm surprised to see how long today the Mirror Mirror Uhura/Sulu 2 pack and the 14 inch Joker has lasted on the Target website. Paul Stanley is sticking around still. Te Bewitched 2 pack and 14 inch Superman hung around for a long while before they sold out again. Is it possible that even with the Ebay scalpers mass buying the figures that these figures are already reaching a saturation point? Have the fans already bought what they wanted of these figures and now they're sitting on the website like peg warmers? I wonder how that will start affecting the Ebay prices. I wonder how long it will take for green shirt Kirk, the Romulan, and the KISS Demon to get to the website and for those figures to reach a saturation point as well. I think all of these figures are going to eventually sit around on the Target website once all the figures get released.

[powersthatbe]

Score! I found and bought two green kirks today at my closest target, also saw Prue on the pegs.

[TrekStar]

Checked today and found a couple of Ritchie's, Star Child, Spock, along with the female peg warmers, Greg Brady
and Cliff, but no green shirt Kirk or Romulan, which figures since that's the one I want the most.

[jwyblejr]

Didn't see much in the way of new today. Just Al Bundy and the Sulu/Uhura two pack.

Got an e-mail from Target that they have shipped my Werewolf that was on backorder.

Today was the first day I saw Al Bundy on the Target website. I'm glad the current Target promotion is that you don't have to buy at least $35 worth to get free shipping. I still bought two because odds are one of them will arrive damaged (hopefully not both). I usually buy extras and return the damaged ones to the store. The odd thing though is I bought Funko Target-exclusive figures from Target online and they always show up in non-damaged condition.
