Never can find any Marvel Muggs! Very frustrating! Can't find Thor, Ghost Rider, Doc Ock, Venom of course, and The Thing. I check stores almost daily, and nothing new. Never actually seen Thor or Ghost Rider in stores ever here. I get jealous seeing people with these ones. Done so much hunting with no prevail.

Which stores you checking mostly? Don't forget Borders, Toys R Us, Target, Wal-Mart and of course local Comic Book shops!

I think I may go on a run tomorrow and look at Wal Mart and Target, and possibly Meijer.

Edit: One of the Wal Marts around me actually had all 4 of the new Marvel wave and I've kept passing them up. If I see them this time, definitely getting Black Suit Spidey and possibly Thor.

I asked the local comic book store, a geeky hole-in-the-wall joint, if they had any. The guy says "Nobody in town sells them." (I had boughten five in my town that very day). I said our town does, he quickly asks "Where?" I said Target, TRU, Wal-Mart, Shopko, K Mart. He rudely quips back, "go there then." Jeez! If I ever decide to like comics I ain't going to that jerk! It's sad when people have to be mean about my passion: Mighty Muggs! I didn't mind that they didn't have any (but why didn't they), but he didn't have to be a jerk!

I wouldn't have even told that guy where, cause now he is going to go grab the Muggs and then over price them. Watch

Wow, what a jerk indeed! Yesterday they had some Marvel ones on the hasbro site, but as usual they sold out. :/ Has anyone noticed that they shortened the list on that site? I hope they put more muggs back on soon! It gets tiring waking up early and going to stores just to get disappointed.

Do you check the stores online sites? I just wondered if they might have them. It may be worth a shot. I do that with Toys-R-Us and Wal-mart around the holidays.

Keep checking TRU. Just found a Venom there today!!!

Found Thing at my LCS a few days ago. In just a month of collecting, I'm up to 9 Marvels, 9 Star Wars, and 2 Indiana Jones Muggs.

If you have a Meijers, those are good stores, too.

A Wolverine? Wow. That is the main Mighty Mugg I want. So what does the Wolverine mugg look like? Is he in his yellow suit? Somehow I jsut see me adding a cigar if they left that little item out. Hehe.:p

Nope, No Barnes and Noble. Just Borders (book store wise) there is also a coupon out there to take the price down to 15 bucks.

I would have bought the wolverine, but the box wasnt 100% perfect...especially for $20.

I didnt know Meijer carried them? That adds about 3 more stores to my hit list! :)

Actually, I've only seen SW Muggs there, but that made me think they were gonna start getting more. I just saw the SW ones there for the first time a week or so ago myself.

If there's an Urban Outfitters around you, there's usually a good selection there.

Mostly empty shelves at the Targets near me. Walmart and the other places are usually stocked.

TRU is always packed but no1 ever buys the ones they have so it's always the same ones. LIke yesterday I was at TRU they had 12 darth mauls, 7 obi-wans, 5 han solos, nd 9 bespin lukes.
they also had 2 captain americas, 3 hulks, 2 spider mans, nd 4 original iron-mans
but everything else barely has anything.
The borders near me don't carry them.
