    I finally found them this morning. One each of Batman, Robin and Superman. Looking everyday finally yielded results, Only complaint right now is the red stitching of Superman's cape is showing through the costume. And sticker chest insignias. Otherwise, they look great. Hopefully I will find time to open them over the weekend.

      I pre-ordered through Entertainment Earth and just got my second update regarding delays for these. This time it is pushed back to January 2023. Anyone else get delay notices from online pre-orders?

        I previously found Superman, Batman, and Robin at Walmart. Today Flash, Shazam, Green Lantern, and Aquaman arrived from MoviePostersEtc. Loving this line!!

          A good thought. So good, I did it last night.

            Superman, Batman, and Robin were in the Wal Mart on West Broadway in Columbia, Missouri this morning.

              Even though I pre-ordered from ZLC, I picked up a full set from Walmart a few days ago when I popped in to get some earbuds.

              COULD
              NOT
              RESIST!

              What an amazing thrill it was to walk in and see them hanging on the pegs, and taking a few moments to make my selection.

              There were a 3-4 of each figure and it sure wasn't easy to leave the rest of them on the shelf!

                  I haven't bought a new mego since wave 1. I love them. I just haven't felt the need.

                  I feel the need again. These are on my Christmas list.

                    The Dynamic Duo in their civies from FTC. The shoulders do create a little problem as they are bigger than the classic bodies, so that might be a challenge depending on how tight your specific shirt and jacket on Bruce and Clark are.

                      Feeling that same need, though I bought Megos near the end of the first run in 1980-81 or so. Amazon awaits me on 12/6!

                        These look pretty neat, as far as tightness, how do the underarms move?

                          I feel the same way, since I’ve only bought the Star Trek villains/aliens, did the same back when EMCE Diamond Select had them, but these anniversary WGSH are a must buy.

                            I know this may sound weird, but can somebody post a pic of the 50th anniversary figures nude?
                            I’d like to see how it’s put together and if there’s any issues.

                              So am I understanding correctly that the figures are actually in the collector aisle in electronics instead of the toy department? I stopped at the Walmart in Queensbury, NY (where Zayre's used to be located) and didn't find anything in the toy department- which was kind of disappointing actually since the rest of the day had been a wash and I was hoping for (at least) one little victory. Also, are they only stocking Superman, Batman, and Robin or have the other five characters been spotted as well? ZLC is apparently getting their stock this week and then orders will start shipping, but- obviously- it's not quite the same thing as seeing them in the store.

                                I got email notice from BBTS that my pre order for these is processing now and should have them by next week.)
