Hey, I am new here. I'm not a huge introduction type person, but let's see.

I started collecting Muggs when series 1 of the Marvel Muggs were released. Once I bought those, I had to have them all. So I'm collecting each and every one (to the best of my ability). The only two I am missing thus far (not counting recently released figures) are C3PO and Captain Rex but I read that they will be rereleased in an upcoming wave. :D

I'm not really a huge fan of Star Wars in general but love the Muggs. I enjoyed the movies but I'm not a super fan. And don't hate me, but I've never seen any of the Indy movies. I will someday, I promise.

Hmm, I am originally from Dearborn, Michigan. I work at a Target in Memphis, TN, so I guess I have somewhat of an advantage. We usually get a good amount of Muggs in stock so I have a good selection of paint jobs (I'm very picky, by the way). I hate Wal-mart (has nothing to do with working at Target) but I suck it up and go there if looking for Muggs. There is only one TRU in the area and it is pretty crappy. :(

I found this site because I just found out about the Punisher and Jigsaw Muggs today. I was getting worried because everything said they were planned for release in November and ebay prices are high. But I'm glad I found this board and see that people are just now coming across them. I will have to check my TRU tomorrow.

I wrote much more than I thought. So I will stop here. Glad to be apart of the board.

Welcome. Sounds like your collection is already impressive... most impressive.

I just made a great contact at the TRU in Dearborn, MI! Lady told me they were getting their Punisher/Jigsaw shipped in last ngiht, but they weren't on the shelf today.

How long ago did you leave Dearborn?

And yea, welcome to the forum, I see a lot of people helping out here when people can't find what they need. I suggest you don't give in to those astronomical Ebay prices for Punisher/Jigsaw.

hiya, I love detailed introductions! I think you're the second Target employee that has posted an introduction recently! Hopefully you can snag some good ones before the masses get a hold of them! I was just out searching for Muggs at my closest target today and there were 21 Marvel Muggs....and 2 Venoms among them! I may have to go back and get the Venoms...can't beat the $8.99 price (now I'm rambling on LOL) Hope you enjoy the site and good luck on your collection!

I grew up in a military family, so I've lived all over. Most of my family still lives in Dearborn so I am up there often. I've lived in Michigan a few times, Illinois, Texas, California, Mississippi, Alabama, and even Japan for a year (although I was only four at the time) before moving to Tennessee.
