    To my surprise, I was able to snag a full set at my neighborhood Target last week. I live in Downtown Houston, and for whatever reason, it's usually the burbs where the good stuff is found. These should scale well with my Batman '66 figures (from both Funko and Mezco). Not to mention the original Mego Pocket Superheroes! And I believe this is the line that is rumored to bring in Nuclear Man in the next wave, right? Can't wait for that!

      Overall I like them. My only gripe (and it is a minor one) is Jor El's robe. That's NOT how they did robes back in the days of the 5POA action figure. Either it'd be sculpted (Like Anakin or the Emperor) or it'd be vinyl (Like Obi Wan, Vader, Sand People, Princess Leia, Jawa, Lando, Bespin Leia, etc. etc.) Or it'd be soft goods (like Jedi Luke, Yoda, etc.) But I can't think of a single figure from that era that had a sculpted plastic robe/cloak in that style.

      If I'm wrong, lmk, so I can overcome my OCD!
      Looking for Green Arrow accessories, Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver, and Japanese Popy Megos (Battle Cossack and France, Battle of the Planets, Kamen Rider, Ultraman) and World Heroes figures

        This is way late, but I was able to score a bunch of these for $3.99 each at Target last week. I was able to get Superman, Luthor, General Zod and Jor-El in cream color robe. No Lois Lane or Black Robed Jor-El, which I don't mind missing either of those. The one Target had a bunch, which was great because the paint apps on most of the Supermans were terrible.

        I also picked up a McFarlane Gold Label Fortress of Solitude (with Gary) for 50% off at MTS. I think it will work well with these.
