      I checked my 2 local area Walmarts and neither one has the 50th WGSH, they do have other mego’s but very few left in stock. The other stores farther away I checked online and even they are out of stock on most.

      I’m not very surprised just disappointed, I really want a Shazam and ebay is NOT an option, I do not have an Amazon account, I never buy from them anyway.

        So I guess Walmart is never going to fix the problem, so you can't buy Megos at Wally World form here on in?

          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 ?
          The ones I just received from ZLC had the hanging tags on them, as well. These are the first of the 50th I have bought that had tags attached. I bought from ZLC and Walmart for the first round of 50th. None of them had tags attached.

            no new Mego sightings in western Massachusetts or Northern Connecticut. Is it official from Mego Corp that these figures are going to be sold again .. on the shelves at Walmart?

              Maybe new mego will come out with a second release of the 50th anniversary figures
              (continued to be sold at Walmart) possibly in the fall or the holidays with the upgraded knee issue fixed. Well at least that’s what I’m hoping for.

                The next wave is showing up all over the place. Still the same knee problem. Maybe they have to use up all of the old bodies before making new ones?

                        I was in a Walmart about an hour away from home and thought I'd do a "spot check" on 50th Anniversary availability. There was one Robin on the pegs.

                          Very similar experience. 3 Reverse Flashes, 3 Jokers, and 1 Green Lantern.

                              I actually found The Joker and Reverse Flash at our Walmart this morning. First time they've had any Megos in months. They also had a Kirk and 2 Hammer Frankensteins, and this one finally put the 2 beat to crap Wolfman/Flay 2 packs on clearance for $15, there were 2, and of the 8 corners, not a one was still intact and one had a large tear in the center of the top as well. They were at full price in that condition for a long while, then disappeared from the shelves about 2 months ago, then appeared ina misc clearance bin with a bunch of Funko Pops on clearance today (though it's been 2 weeks since I was there, so not sure how long that clearance bin has been up).

                                Checked at the Wallyworld across town this afternoon and they has like 8-10 Jokers, 8-10 Reverse Flashes, and 3 Aquaman, plus a Hammer Frankie and 2 Ultraman figures. Checled the Meijers in the same business district and all they had was one lonely Superman by himself on the shelf.

                                I've still never seen Shazam, GL, Flash, or Green Arrow in the wild in any of the 3 places in town that carry Megos.
