    That's what my closest Walmart looked like over the weekend. Toss in a Ultraseven, Teenwolf, a bunch of Exorcist, Q, and Locutus as well.

      Went to three Target stores today. Online it said the first store had three Stan Lee figures in stock. They had nothing. Took me an hour to get there to find that out. Took me another hour and a half to get to the second store, and they had one Rocketeer, one Dr. Zaius, and two Son of Frankenstein figures. I already have all three of those figures. The third one was another half hour away and the only figure they had was Scotty. I have been looking for the blue phaser Scotty, so that was a great score for me! It was worth the three hours of travel time to get it. Then another hour to get home. Four hours travel time to get one figure. Had nothing better to do with my time today...
      I did find ten dollars in the parking lot at the first store I went to, so that was cool.

          The Walmart in my town has had the same Legolas and Hannibal for months now. I hope MEGO isn't paying Wally World to much in their distro deal, otherwise they're getitng ripped off

            While buying groceries I found the Mego section at my local Wal-Mart well stocked again yesterday. They had Hammer Drac, Red Phantom, Ultraman, Q and a few other new ones. I picked up an extra Drac to open.

              Walmart was stocked with 4-5 each of Hammer Dracula, Red Death, It, Exorcist, Willie Wonka, Ultra Man, Q, and Locutus. Picked up Drac, Willie, RD, and Q. So great to find so many Megos on the pegs again 😎. I’d post pics but I don’t see how to do it from my phone.

                Nothing around me, dang.

                EDIT Today I bought Hammer Dracula, Red Death, and Ultraman, at Wal-mart. So they are about two waves behind? Glad to find them.

                  My local want had quite a few! Sadly, nothing I really wanted. But I bought a Phantom of the Red Death for customizing purposes.

                    In addition to the leftover stock from months ago (regular Picard, etc.), my Walmart had Hammer Dracula, Red Death, It, Exorcist, Willy Wonka, Ultra Man, Encounter at Farpoint Q, and Picard as Locutus. I bought Willy Wonka (no price available at the register), Q, and Locutus. They look pretty good. They were $14.88 each.

                      I got Red Death at Walmart Friday and Igor at Target today. Its cool to see these great new Megos at retail. The new ones aren't scalped as bad as other collecting so there is a chance of actually seeing something in store.

                        I went back to get a few more for customs--all gone except Scarred Pennywise and one Exorcist Regan. That was a fast clear-out, 28 hours.

                          That's was quick! I'll have to go searching tomorrow.

                            Finally got some MEGO love in central MO. Looked like they stocked with four each of scarred Pennywise, Regan, Q, Hammer Drac, Lucutus, Red Death, and Ultraman. Still had our 2 Picards and 2 Saru on deck as well. No Wonka and no Universal Horror, but I was pretty thrilled to finally get to purchase off the rack.

                              I searched Walmart when I was in there the other day-Not a Mego in sight...

                              I looked at Target when I was in there last night-They had a total of one of the newest Mego figures (Stan Lee) and a bunch of peg warming Tooties.

                                I finally found some Mego figures at Walmart! They had two figures. I didn't need either of them, but at least I finally did see some at a Walmart.
