    Here in GA, it's not uncommon to see 4 Action Jackson's on the pegs at the same time. He's not as much of a peg warmer as Alice and Tootie, but AJ sure isn't selling like Jimi, Paul Stanley, Frankenstein, Spock, Gorn, or Dracula!

    With the sale going on today on Megos, I picked up an AJ for $10.52!

    I'd love to see AJ in a red jumpsuit. I think it would pop on the shelves.

    AJ needs a reason to be. He needs a story and a villain or something. I remember when I was a kid finding He-Man in a store. I had no idea what it was but I bought it. The little comic introduced me to the character and story. But He-Man wasn't all that fun to play until I got Skeletor.

    I like AJ and I think he could be more popular with new buyers if he had a little backstory.

    Dr. Mego himself said somewhere "We're not done with AJ" so he could return in forthcoming waves.

    While it's not surprising he's a slower seller, he also seems to be one of the more embraced figures from wave one.

    Me too. I love licensed characters as much as the next guy, but I think we are so conditioned to gravitate towards familiar faces rather than unique toy company creations that allow us to project our imagination into playing with it. I hope he's selling better than we think he is. At least they don't have to pay anything to license him, so maybe there's hope that they get more profits with AJ.

    I've never seen the two on the right, the regular head done in brown. When were those available? Are they rare? Are they customs?

    I thought Spock was one of the rare ones. The first batch of wave 2 I saw included Greg Brady and Spock. I picked up the Spock just because I was excited to find any Wave 2 figures. Of my dozens of trips to Target since wave 2 came out, it was the only Spock I've seen and he's not on Target.com at the moment either. Now I'm really glad I got him while I could.

    I would like to see AJ variants as well. I would love for some of the outfits to be reproduced. I want some of the sports outfits, especially baseball.

    I’d like to see them do the Black Action Jackson!
    They already have the brown body from Jimi.

    You know, the new Mego Kris has a great jumpsuit and could be a good Dinah. But I was hoping for an accurate repro.

    They don't own Action Jackson but you can buy him at Target. So maybe a licensing deal can be struck?
