    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...

        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.

            I just checked the store again and there are apparently still sets available. I was able to add two sets to the cart. Didn't follow through with the process because I already have a set, but it seems like someone who might still have a need could get a set or two.

            I think this is great, but it set me to wondering if this will repeat with the FF set and whatever may come next. Knowing this detail would be very helpful in cutting down on the anxiety next go around and would necessarily dissipate the rotten cloud that sets in over the releases so far. That being the artificial scarcity that is driven by profiteers whose sole intent is making money (while adding no value to the product) from a panicked collector base who just want to buy a toy or support Mego as a company. It kind of guts me to remember all of the anxiety during both releases. If someone knew at the time that the Spidey set would wind up being released again (and not get gobbled up by the first ones to the trough....in fact, still available dayS later)....image how far that could have gone toward easing the angst in the moment.

                Ha! Maybe I will.

                I can’t believe I forgot about Thor when I posted re: the Avengers set earlier.

                But yeah, I’m with you. As long as it comes out and is easily available for all.

                  I just ordered two sets and if they come in it’s ok. I had only wanted one but it seemed like it automatically marked me for two and I couldn’t change it. Let’s hope.

                    I just paid the duty fees on my 2 sets to UPS, I should be receiving them on Monday.

                    Now, will just wait for the 3rd 4 pack set to come out.

                    And Yes, Thor is a must !

                          Nice! They’re great sets.

                          Enjoy the Mego Marvel Merriment!

                            Thanks to this forum, I was able to buy a set when Spidey was back online.

                            On Monday, I gave it to a 9-year-old for his birthday. His eyes lit up! He said, "This is legit!" Not sure I used that phrasing back in the day, but the sentiment was the same.

                            Mego has a special magic with kids. I wish WGSH were in stores for them to actually see.

                            When the boy saw my meager display a few months back, he was pretty fascinated.

                              It took me 1 hr to put in my order, most had a hard time. Its the Disney web site. Its real bad.
                              Although I don't dispute this, I have to say that the process for using my Disney points was easier than it has ever been before, thanks to some changes in the check out process. It always bothered me that Amazon had an easier point system than Disney. They can make me believe I'm on Tatooine, but they can't make a good shopping cart.

                              Glad to see they finally made a positive change.
