Anybody else obsessively checking Big Lots?

[puckace]

Well after striking out locally and coming up empty on a mini vacation, I decided to take the sku posted here to my local Big Lots. They confirmed that nothing was near by. After a 30 minute road trip to a store that my local store said had nine, I picked up Superman. Case breakdown was 3 Batman, 2 Robin, 2 Superman, and 2 Joker. I thought I would really want the display box, but I was unimpressed. It's just a white cardboard single row sleeve to hold all the nine figures with a maybe 2" flap with DC WGSH artwork on the front. It was tiny and wouldn't look all that great on display. Also for those still looking, they had them set aside near the front registers. They were concerned that people would steal them so I had to ask for their location after finding nothing out in the store.

I have a huge Big Lots about three minutes from our home. When I took one of my Batman cowls and painted it for this release, I never knew this set would become what its clearly become. I ended up having to drive 15 miles to the nearest store that confirmed they had all four. Paul really hit on a nerve that allot of people were apparently feeling and kudos to him for always finding that pulse in this hobby that has been examined and re-examined for a long time. Its definitely opened the door to other possibilities. Paul deserves allot of credit for making this happen and he doesn't even have a set for himself yet.

I did see some 1:18th Marvel Universe figures there for 5 bucks, but no Megos.Funny yesterday I did go out late(after 3) and Big Lots had a big line when I went iin.

Of course. Big Lots had toys 50% off today and you can't find them.

I live in south Texas and have run across two stores that have gotten in one box each. One store had mixed in the box toy isle while the 2cd had them out front.

I just took turn-a-round pics of the Dynamic Duo so stayed tuned.

Any East Coast or Deep South sightings?

I was right by a Big Lots yesterday and shrugged it off. It would have required a left turn at lunchtime...and Whataburger was beckoning.

i looked yesterday but no luck and I am on the east coast. Not planning on going out next week, my next day off is Black Friday and staying home.

After going to numerious Big Lots (some multiple times) I ‘ve given up, buying one on ebay.

Toy collecting in the post-Covid era is really no fun at all.

I’m in Alabama. It’s not unusual for this region to get spotty distribution of any toy exclusive, but still frustrating.

There are still none within 100 miles of where I live. Frustrating—looks like eBay for me.

Are you on the east coast? That area still has yet to have a sighting, according to the Mego Ambassadors FB page. Ohio is the farthest east I've seen.

Well, my dad gifted me Batman and Robin, so I'm only in want of a Joker.

I do hope more ship. I would like to get a display box.
