    THat may have been all they got in so far. The one Walmart around here that has them out had only those two in sets of 6 each.

      I think Scott is right. I went to a Walmart over the weekend in Plant City, FL and that is exactly what they had (6 GL's and 6 Aquaman figures) with no sign of Shazam or Flash.

        Yeah, that's so puzzling.

            I have yet to see any Megos at any Walmart here in Rochester, NY.

              Ours have gotten figures from 2020. It's weird.

                My local Walmart just got the revised head sculpt Capt. Kirk in, but wouldn't sell it because they couldn't find it in the computer.

                  I ran into the same issue (not ringing up at checkout) with my GL & Aquaman purchase. There is some feature on their handheld device that lets them add the item. After doing that and scanning a couple of times, it eventually worked and I was able to purchase.

                    I couldn't scan Aquaman or Green Lantern on my Walmart App, but they scanned with no issues at the cash register. Still hoping they eventually get The Flash and Shazam.

                      I'm not sure if I have looked at the Walmart on Hudson (not sure if there are any others technically in Rochester), but I have definitely seen Megos in the Macedon store starting years ago and I picked up my 50th anniversary Batman, Robin, Superman, Shazam, Flash and Green Lantern in the Empire Blvd store in Webster.

                        Saw Shazam today for the first time. Aquaman x2 Green Lantern x2 new Captain Kirk, and Hammer Frankenstein. None of them would scan though.

                          Just curious, has there been any update to the list of the Walmarts that have the expanded collectibles section that carry Mego items? I know that post was published somewhere in one of the forums a couple years back. I printed it once and keep it in my truck in case I find myself in a new area. Anyway, just a reminder that not all Walmarts carry Mego.

                            Hey this morning I found a bunch of 50th figs at the Walmart on Morse Rd near Easton in Columbus Ohio. I needed Aquaman and Flash, which I got, hallelujah!
                            They also had a Supes on clearance with a messed up box for 11.23. I figured custom fodder so I got it.
                            They had one each of Robin, Superman and the Flash. A couple of Aquaman. Four or five of GL and Captain Marvel each left.
                            They also had Super Powers Nightwing, Deathstroke and red cape Wonder Woman.

                              I found Riddler, Penguin , and Reverse Flash at a Walmart in my area but they refused to sell them to me because they would not scan . Asst manager type got angry that I was wanting to buy them, and claimed that these are probably returns and we can't sell these even though they were hanging on pegs. I was nice to them in store but have filed complaints to corporate office

                                So, in the last few days, I’ve received my preorders from ZLC for Green Arrow and the 4 Super-Foes, and they all now have a clear plastic hang tag affixed to the back of the boxes. Previously, only the 3 I purchased from Walmart (Batman, Robin and Superman) had hangers, the other 4 from that wave that I purchased from ZLC did not.
                                I had assumed the hangers were added by Walmart so they could more easily display them in their collectibles section.
                                They are easily removed, and this seems like a silly question, but if I do so is the packaging now damaged/incomplete ?
