      I'd rather have gotten a Gandalf and Frodo to go with my Legolas and Aragorn...

        I ordered one. Had to clock out at work and lose 10 minutes' pay and had a really, really hard time getting the shopping cart to work. I'm guessing it was the wifi, which I know isn't so good. But it finally went through. I was afraid to hope, knowing how other orders were canceled after the fact, but when I checked after work, the set was still available. So...yay!

          It wasnt your WiFi.

          It took me 1 hr to put in my order, most had a hard time. Its the Disney web site. Its real bad.

          Happy you got your set !

          I think only Gandalf didnt get his... lol

            It's approaching 8 PM (Eastern) and the Spidey set is still available as I just now checked the site. Free shipping code at the top of the page and the amount of the set qualifies for the offer.
            In response to overwhelming demand, Mego Corp. has relaunched their classic 8'' action figure line. This exclusive four-figure set, which includes Spider-Man, Green Goblin, the Lizard, and an all-new Electro, comes in vintage-style Mego packaging inside an outer box. The set includes a collectible metallic coin with classic Spider-Man art and Mego logo. Each figure has 26 points of articulation, exact replicas of the vintage Mego accessories, and removable silkscreen costumes.

              TBH, I'm really happy this was resolicited--because it's a lovely set and Mego fans should be able to get one if they wish. Electro is Just. So. Nice.

                I agree with you but... for someoner that had to buy these on the secondary market and pay a hefty price for the first release, a heads up that more were going to be available would have been appreciated.

                Really dont like the way they are handling things both at Mego and Disney.

                Yes its a good thing but lots of people paid lots for the way they are doing it.

                  I agree, it's all been very badly handled. If they can just learn from their mistakes...

                  I came very close to buying a set on the secondary market. I ordered it from someone on Mercari who clearly buys things at the Disney parks and resells them. That's okay, and it was only $100 for the set, and I had a Mercari coupon, so I was getting it for $90 plus shipping. But he never shipped. After a few communications in which he PROMISED to ship on a particular date, he stopped responding to my messages. I ended up canceling the order after almost a month of waiting. He didn't even respond to Mercari's request for cancellation. AND he's still creating new listings of the same set. Whatever.

                  I'm also thinking that those who bought the set to resell might find it harder to recoup their money. If people realize it's available at the Disney Store.

                      Doc Mego publicly said that he was working with Disney to allow them to reissue the set. So I think that message was out there... and I'm glad they were able to make it happen.

                        Not Gandalf the Grey, nor even Gandalf the White.

                        Call me… Gandalf the Webbed!

                          Man, how I hope for Iron Man, Cap, Hulk, and Falcon. I loved the Iron Man Mego as a kid, and the thought of squaring off the Thing against the Hulk once more would be surreal and so fun.

                          I have ancient pics of me posing proudly in front of my Megos. I’m wearing a robe that barely covers my Captain America pajamas. Barely covers, I must add, due to my portly 9-year-old glory.

                          We’re talking the stuff of Plaid Stallion nightmares.

                            Im never going to get my money back on these sets.... The extra charges to get them into Canada is crazy...

                              Post the pic ! lol

                              I also hope that an Avenger set is next in line. I dont care who they put in it as long as it comes out and is easily available for all.

                                I also agree with this, especially the availability for all. If I personally had a choice, I would like to see Cap-Iron Man-Thor and Black Panther, but I wouldn’t mind seeing one of those substituted for a villain like maybe Dr. Doom.
