What's Up?

[Barnabas Collins]

If anyone finds the 6.49 figures at retail, Target will match their own website. For example Chekov still scans for 12.99 but stores will honor the website price if you take the item up to customer service. Another Target tip, if nobody is in line at customer service, they are happy to ring you up there, if the regular lines are all backed up. I've saved a lot of time that way.

Good to know, about matching the Target website sale price in a store. All the Targets I visit are overloaded with Chekovs.

Bought the Charmed Trio for Custom Fodder can't pass that deal up...

The Mego item total hasn't changed in days. It's sitting at 42. There haven't been any flash-in-the-pan sales, as far as I have seen. I'm spending a lot of time refreshing the site, hoping for some figures I'd like to buy to come back into stock.

I'd like to see Supes return

werewolf is back up as of 8:20 EST. first time in days I have seen any change in what's available online

[Piddley]

I'm sure starting in the next couple of months the price of all the Series 1-3's left will be in the $6-8 range permanently to clearance them out. Target isn't going to want to sit on them forever. I'm sure Target is disappointed in the sales of these figures already.

So in the final analysis, coming up to Christmas, is having 10 figures out of 54 not available a sign of success or failure?

The fact that some figures such as Tootie probably still have 9000 available for sale 6 months later isn't a success.

[VulcansFury]

After-Christmas Clearances Sale = Mego NOT on clearance. I'll take that as a good sign the SKU will continue.

If Target was disappointed, they wouldn't go in on Wave 4 and would have cut their losses after Wave 2 by selling it all off to a liquidator for the holidays.

I do think the remaining figures will be clearances, but the online inventory could be repurposed by Mego for new stock. AJ, Charmed, Angels are evergreen when you think about it. The only ones that "locked in" to what they are, are the monsters.

If that's true, it's a testament to the licensing choices of the exclusive vendor, not the format. Some offerings have sold well.

Romulan is back up as of 3:15 EST

[LonnieFisher]

Spock was up for a second, but I missed out.

[Steeler80]

Every time I have looked lately, it's been the same 42 figures.

[Avenging Robot]

Every time I have looked lately, it's been the same 42 figures.

Me too. I saw a Romulan for about 3 minutes once, but other than that it's been the same 42.
