7/29 and no luck yet.

[theSamurai]

Here's what I found at my closest TARGET, and how I found them (sitting on top of a pallet of AC units).





:/

Makes me think the initial mix info was off, wrong or not fully complete.

These look like full inner-cases of each 14" figure.

So.. bottom-line is (for the 14" figs at least) there may be different case mixes. Full cases of same fig, and mixed fig cases.

YMMV

Yeah, I'm bummed out right now. I was supposed to start work at 8 AM this morning, which is when all of the Targets out here open. So I played hooky from work for an hour so I could hit up my closest Target at 8... but they had nothing. Then my back-up plan was to order it online from Target, but most of those are already sold out. I can't believe they sold out online so fast, just within a few hours of going up!

So, I have the three I found on sale early at a Target a few days ago, and I just ordered three more from the website (the other two still available online are two of the ones I already found). I'll have some more spare time on Monday and Tuesday, and I'll hit up the other stores in my area then, and who knows, maybe I'll strike gold at one of them. But man, I had visions of walking into that checkout lane with a cart piled full of Megos, so it's a disappointing day for me right now.

Thank you for words. They help name how I'm feeling.

Exactly, Been waiting with the kids for weeks for this day...And what a disappointment it was. My kids were up at 6 am to go Mego hunting with me today to find nothing at Target (on the projected Mego release date). This is not the way it use to be back in the days...there was always enough for everybody. How could kids nowadays experience the joys of collecting Megos (like we did in our childhood), if there are no Megos around. I'm sorry but this quickly became a fire sale for the scalpers to capitlize on "Evilbay".

I tried 4 local Targets (3 said on line only) and the 4 store I recognized a local scalper
showing pics on his phone to a Target employee, that said they might have some but won't know until they set toy area in a few weeks. This is why I quit collecting figures at retail.
I might just save money for something else. 4 Targets that I contacted didn't know
anything about 7-29-18 as release date for Mego here in Fresno Ca.

Showed up at my local Target as the doors opened. I was eyeing a couple of guys that I thought might be looking for the same thing I was looking for: Chekhov and Sulu.

I was right in that they were looking for action figures, but they were looking for Star Wars stuff, not Mego Star Trek. The store had nothing. I went home thinking I could get them online. Chekhov was still available, but Sulu was not.

Megos are a feature of my Facebook posts, so I was sharing on my FB page that Chekhov had just boarded a shuttlecraft to join the rest of the crew from 1974, but Sulu missed it--then, I suggested that Sulu could probably be found on Ebay, even though the were only to have been available just this morning. Sure enough, I found Sulu at twice the retail price.

I have no intention of rewarding the speculators.

[scott metzger]

Exactly why is the site saying they aren't available in stores? Let's discourage people from going the the stores to check for them and maybe pick up other stuff while they are there? That's kind of the opposite of the whole idea of having exclusives.

[Iron Mego]

Yeah, I'm starting to think a lot of the stores just aren't putting them out yet. I usually go on Monday mornings to shop, and that's when the stores here restock. That's why they aren't showing up as "In store" online. There's no way my town sold out of these within the last hour.

Also, stores were obviously putting them out early, and weren't showing up as available "In store" on their website, so things aren't totally synced up.

[Cornelius POTA]

I feel you, buddy.

Somebody said this was going to be "Christmas in July". For me, I feel like I ran downstairs and... not only were there no presents, but somebody stole the Christmas tree...

lol that's a good one, sprytel....what about cookies and milk? please tell me that they left the cookies and milk?

[drogge]

I got them all at my local Targets, it was a bit of a challenge, the 1st one I went to would sell me two, representative said there was a 1 per customer limit but he would allow me to buy 2. I though this was odd, I asked aren't you going to stock them on the pegs anyway? He said no. Really weird. So I bought two and went down the road to the next Target. The representative initially said they were only going to be online but agreed to go check in the back. He came back with all of them. A miracle, and while I was buying these another customer called on the phone to check on them. I could hear him telling the customer they would be out Monday or Tuesday, kind of strange since he just pulled out everything from the back for me to go through. Wow. These are going to be selling out quickly. Also, I saw once again what is coming out in the next waves on his portable inventory checker. There are a lot of Megos on the horizon.

[powersthatbe]

none at the target by me,I wasn’t expecting to find any.

[josephcardone]

This is my humble opinion. Most of us on here have always helped each other - The follow up to my earlier posting was what I was thinking (thanks to a fellow member) If we don’t panic and pay double or triple the price then the entrepreneurs will stop hoarding them to make a short term profit. I am sure we can help each other get them. I am quite positive that it was not Paul’s intention to have us pay over retail. He is one of us

Why do they only have 5 Mego products listed on the Target website????
Last week, there were 14 products??
Why did they take 9 down?

[Iron Mego]

Online is telling me there are none available in stores, but my friend sent me a picture last night of a Chekov he picked up IN A LOCAL STORE. He said they had Sulu etc. I doubt that they all got snatched up this morning where I live, but who knows.

Same here. Pretty dejected. I never dreamed Action Jackson would have sold out so quickly. That was my biggest want out of all of these.
