    Walmart DC Comics Set Has Arrived

    Sorry for the not so great pictures. It's hard to take a picture because of the front flap that goes up and is rigid.

        Thanks for posting the great pics! I don't think I'll be getting them, though. I do like the idea of a 3-pack gift set, but there's something off about Superman to me. I think his head is too big, and his suit looks kind of baggy. The size of Batman's head looks right, but the suit looks baggy, too. I do like the Wonder Woman figure but they used that same face on Piper, Samantha, and Kelly Bundy it seems.

            If I can get some head adapters from LaserMego, when I get my carded versions, I might try a swap to Type S bodies. At the moment, none of these will replace my FTC versions on my shelf. Not because they are bad, but the styles don’t feel compatible. And I prefer my Batman blue and gray.

                  Mine just came today. I ordered mine when they showed up on the WalMart site around Thanksgiving. It’s a nice set and I hope they are able to limit it to one set per household and honor the orders from everyone.

                    I'm glad you got it, but the fact Walmart screwed the original folks who ordered this (like me) is total bunk. I can live without the box set, but the practice alone really rankles my feathers.

                        In the Mego Ambassadors FB group, Mego are asking you to send in your cancellation emails. They're attempting to try and find a solution.

                          ^Oh, okay, thanks Brian. I wasn't aware of that. I will send mine over. I appreciate them trying to do something about it. That's really good of them.

                            It is sucky and I would have been in the same boat of I didn't cancel my original order and reorder just one set. I almost canceled it completely since I ordered a set on cards, which was cheaper. So at least there is an alternative to get the figures, if in a different packaging. But it is baffling how Walmart handled these.

                              It’s not that baffling. I find that Walmart’s online site is shockingly disorganized for such a giant retailer.
