    I've checked DPCI codes ad nauseam. In my area, bupkis. Friendly and helpful Target staff, though.

    The nearest Target to me is 30 miles away in State College, PA. After checking it out a number of times this past week with no luck, I went again this evening and found them on an end cap in the toy dept. They looked to have had everything except the Jeannie 2-pack. The pegs looked full of the 8 inch figures so I don't know if anyone had even purchased any by the time I got there. I did only see one each of the 14 inch Batman and Harley Quinn so someone had gotten some of those apparently. A few days ago in Shamokin Dam, PA it looked as though they were about to do a reset of the toy department so I asked an employee about Mego figures and he said he knew about them as he had seen them mentioned on a planogram (I think that's what he called it) and that I should try back early this coming week. Of the four Targets I stopped at this week, he was the only employee I spoke to who didn't seem totally clueless. In State College, I picked up the Mirror 2 pack, Sulu, Chekov, Bela, and AJ but, man, I'm still scratching my head over Tootie. All I can say is God love the person who actually thought Tootie would make a great action figure. LOL
    Tootie getting an action figure gives me hope that anybody I could think of could get an action figure. Karloff and Lugosi from The Black Cat and The Raven? Night Court characters? Me? Okay, lol, maybe me getting one is pushing things!

    I made a mistake, the website said the store didn't have them yet. I didn't have the numbers handy when I asked my wife to go there.

    Okay, the website actually said they weren't in stock where my wife went. My bad.

    No Megos for me yet...but I still had some luck at my local Target(in Maine). A very helpful kid looked up the DCPI number and said they should be in Monday. He then brought me over to an end cap with some Lego stuff on it and I started to tell him he was mistaken. But he showed me the labels on the shelves actually said "Mego" on them! He said the Lego stuff was not suppose to be there...somebody messed up.

    I saw my fist Megos in the wild at a Target 40 miles from home in TN (I was in that area for business) they did not have a large a variety; just Alice, Jimi, Norm, Peg, Kelly, Fonzie, WW, Zod, and Jeannie set, I was looking for Bela, but it was still fun to see these on display, the closer local Target says they will receive their shipment this week, and my ordered Star Trek is also to arrive this week.

    They're DPCI numbers. I've had luck with both. The 2631 is for the Kirk/Spock 2-pack (should be 4 in that case), and the 3112 is for the Dracula/Action Jackson/Sulu case, should be 3 per case.

    If your Target even has them sitting in the back on a pallet, those numbers will work. Have you checked Brickseek yet?
    I did yesterday and it said, not in stock. Although that could change in a few days.

    2631 Kirk/Spock is two per case. 3112 Dracula/AJ/Sulu is two of each in a case of six.

    I opened my three figures just a little while ago.very,very happy with them.when Fonzie came out years ago from FTC I was fine with getting one of my favorite characters/megos from when I was a kid but there was something about it that wasn't "there" to capture that lost childhood feeling.This New Mego Fonzie this time around fulfills that feeling.
