    BTW Amazon has these for roughly $6 shipped for a package of 20. Enough for 10 figures. Thanks again for the tip.

      I can answer this. Her name is Kissy-Thug. She tells all her Roller Derby chicks, that her husband makes dollies, Oh excuse me, 'Man-Dollies'! You know, the type of character dolls that men collect. Superheroes, and Monsters and Action Movies characters. Stuff like that. Then the Roller Derby chicks all go,'Oh, yah. Now I know what you're talking about'. Then she (Kissy-Thug) says;"Yah, arts and crafts".

        Just opened up a Joker wave 1 repro, and an arm fell off as soon as I pulled him out. The shoulder ring was broken. Fortunately it's for a custom anyways, so not a big deal and I just swapped out the arm with an extra arm I have on hand anyways, but still not cool.
        My store in the MEGO MALL!

          Email FTC and they will probably send you a new Joker body. Or you can use MIB's method for using a match to melt the plastic back then coating with Super Glue.

          If you have a rubber band from an original Mego available compare it to the black one that comes out of the Joker. FTC made them too short.

            Careful when you order them from Amazon. I accidentally ordered a 1 pack. I had to re-order the 20 pack so make sure you are getting the right thing. ;-)

                Sorry I just checked and the seller I ordered them from on Amazon shows them unavailable now. Try searching for Danco #12.

                Also Home Depot has them on their site, you can order of have delivered to the store for pickup.
