Are Muggs that popular...?

[Choche]

In the USA? I mean, do they have like TV Commercials, or big posters in stores and stuff?

As some of you know, I live in Mexico where they are not quite as popular, it's not like anybody likes muggs around here, but they don't fly off the shelves, mainly because we only got Han Solos, Chewies and Bobas (tho I'm missing the first two) but some other characters like Vader, Maul, Palpatine among some others that there's only one or two of them just dissappear.

I know that happens in the USA as well, but what I've been wondering is if they're like rly popular there. Because you don't come across a toy around here unless it's selling tons in the US, but we only got Wave 1 and Wave 2 SW Muggs, was there like a... "boom" that made Muggs so popular among collectors?

I don't know if I made myself clear enough with this, but if you get the point, feel free to reply n_n

Good question. I've never actually seen an ad or display in a store for Mighty Muggs in my area.

There's no commercials or massive ad campaigns for Mighty Muggs. It's more for collectors, as opposed to kids. I think Hasbro realizes that the majority of collectors gather online and, therefore, don't need to spend the moolah on commercials.

Hm. I just saw it one day and wanted them. No advertisements or flashy store displays or anything

i have not seen any commercials nor have i seen mighty muggs in target ads or anything like that.
the only thing i have really seen was a display at walmart.
they created a little star wars-like environment, and they had mighty muggs in it.

otherwise i dont see much advertising for mighty muggs.
