    FYI: on DeepDiscount.com, the Mego WGSH 50th Ridder is currently $7.72. (Free shipping over $25.)

    I am not, as a general rule, an MIB collector. But I do have eight Mego WGSH 50th figures MIB. So, when DeepDiscount also sent me an additional discount code, I bought a Riddler just now. (Now, maybe if I go into my local Ross, I will find the WGSH Penguin for $6, which I have seen on YouTube multiple times recently.)

      I'm quoting myself because this morning turned out to be a very lucky day for me. I had to start my day unusually early with a stop at Home Depot. Since a Target is a few doors down, I stopped in, looking for the ever-elusive Spin Master Retro Superman movie figures. This was, like, 7:30 AM, the earliest I'd ever been in a Target. And to my amazement, they had them all.

      So then, a couple of hours later, I was stopping at a local grocery store. In the same mall complex, there is a Ross. But I almost never go in there. (Maybe once every couple of years.) I've ducked in at Christmas a few times, and there was always nothing much there, toy/figure-wise. But recently, I'd seen a few YouTube videos of people at Ross finding the Mego WGSH Penguin. Since I had had very unusual luck earlier that morning at Target, I decided to go in. And to my utter amazement, they had one. For $4.99. Mego at Ross. It was real.

      So now, when the Riddler arrives in the mail, I'll have 10 of the modern WGSH in those really cool retro boxes. This Penguin isn't strictly 'MIB,' but it is, I suppose, 'Very Good In Box,' and that's good enough for me. So in the end, I managed to get the Penguin and the Riddler to go along with the Joker. (The others I have are heroes.)

        Looks okay to me and at the price you can’t complain. By the way if you don’t mind me asking, how is the articulation of the arms and legs?
