Does anyone know when these are going to hit store shelves?????? I cant keep stopping in TRU, I already feel weird being there anyway, and to pop in like 2-3 times a week is worse. All Ive seen is November release, no dates and the people at TRU might as well be working at mcdonalds because they have no idea what I'm talking about most of the time.

I asked around and one of the guys said the Tuesday of the week the movie comes out. I hope they come out earlier than that. But I'm still gonna just keep checking in every now and then. There's nothing wrong with going to TRU 2-3 times a week lol If you're in there so often make sure you sign up for their Rewards program... build up points and get $$ certificates back also special coupons and member nights to shop.

I'm heading out tonight to see if I can track these down early... The release date is a bit fuzzy from what I've been hearing. One of my local stores said that they were hitting shelves on 11/30...

i am very excited about the highly anticipated punisher mighty mugg
I was in a Toys R Us today, and saw no Punisher Muggs. No sign of any Punisher displays at all.

I went into TRU today and they said they don't even have the Punisher exclusives in their systems... I got scared. :(

Is Jigsaw being released in conjunction with Punny at TRU...or is Frank all to look for?

I dunno litepink...I'm having serious doubts about Jigsaw. I don't think we'll see him anytime soon...
Oh, yeah...I called my TRU today and they had no clue what I was talking about...

I went to my local TRU yesterday and did not see them. However, the new waves of Super Hero Squad figures(also by Hasbro) just started showing up this week. Maybe that's a good sign.

I'd give it another week or so guys. The movie doesn't come out until Friday and I don't think there's been any Punisher toys on shelves at al yet.

its all speculation.....
with the movie coming out on Firday, I am surprised Punisher toys arent out yet...to help promote the movie.
Officially, no one knows when they will be out.

I called my local TRU (Central Florida) this morning. I have a friend there who always helps me with muggs. They have nothing yet she said, not even in the back. She is up on muggs, and isnt the type that says they checked the back when they really didnt check the back, so im sure she checked the back :D

I went in to my TRU today( for the 4th day in a row) and guess what? NADA! I am usually hesitant to ask for help since the last time I asked, it turned into a big ordeal with no success. Today, though I did ask if they had some in the back and said that I was looking for the Punisher one. He said "I believe we do have them". And of course he returned with 4 Hulks and handed me one as if this is what I had asked for. Maybe tomorrow!

Just curious but Frank Castle was supposed to come out at Toys R Us in November. Its 12/5 and no Punisher.

Man I was thinking about this. How is toyrus going to promote this movie when kids can't watch it its rated r this isn't a kid movie why would tru get the exclusive to this? It makes no sense n I just went to 2 tru's down south in miami, fl n still nothing
NellyMcAwesome
12-05-2008, 07:40 AM
I think that they've got the exclusive to appeal to the older generation of toy fans... Even grown up's can be Toys R' Us kids every now and again...

I was thinking about stopping at TRU on my way home today but since NO ONE has seen them yet I don't think I will.
This is starting to piss me off.

I've been to 5 TRU n not one of them have heard anything of them going to sell punisher toys or any type of promotion that's going to go on they checked the computers n cannot find anything about a marvel mighty muggs - punisher
HA-Y-AN mugg
12-05-2008, 09:53 AM
I jus checked the toys r us that's near me and nothing, kay-b-toys nothing, and walmart nothing. Then again we all was get things a month later from the main land. Hawaii is out of the good mighty muggs.

I sent Hasbro an email. Hopefully they will get back soon.

I predict that we won't see any punisher muggs until after the new year's. No one at hasbro said they were supposed to be tied in with the movie, TRU doesn't have them in their system, and there are no leaked ones out there on ebay (like the joes).
I hope I'm wrong, but it will be a while still before they hit shelves.

Hi, I am wondering if the Punisher Mighty Muggs figure will be released anytime soon. I have been checking my local Toys R Us quite frequently and have not had any luck. The employees don't seem to know anything either. I belong to a website with fans of the Mighty Muggs and no one there has spotted these either. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and Happy Holidays!

its really annoying they would advertise the punisher on the wave four boxes and not release him at that time. they should have released him when they advertised him. instead of making a revision of an older mugg everyone has. they shouldnt have made him an exclusive, about the only one that should have been and exclusive is jigsaw
TRU has the worst customer service ever, it should have been a while release.... Hasbros mistake.
Garrrr. just needed to vent a little frustration. anyone think this will be the new venom, in terms of rarity lol

Damn son... a bit disgruntled aren't we?
Be patient! Who knows, Santa might leave you a punisher under your tree in time for Christmas :D.
