Mighty Muggs info thread:
Why? Because they are awesome

Target: 9.99 (not on website)

Toys R Us: 10.49 (http://www.toysrus.com/search/index.jsp?kwCatId=&kw=mighty%20muggs&origkw=Mighty%20muggs&f=Taxonomy/TRUS/2254197&sr=1) I have found them to have the biggest amount, and rarer ones of most of the stores

Wal-Mart: 9.98 (Not online?) Maybe some clearance ones?

Hasbro Store: Price varies http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/SearchResults.htm?PG=1&CDT=1218299435
also offer rare and limited Muggs.

Borders: 19.99 (Not online) Pricing is steep, but don't forget some coupons can bring the price down on some rare older ones (I saw Vemon last week) Coupons--http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=177479

[quote name='Nibi']Here in NYC we have a chain of stores called Urban Outfitters. They sell clothing furniture and toys/books. On a random walk around the city I went in and saw that they had Mighty Muggs... for $20 bucks plus tax! They had a really nice variety, but those prices are terrible. I predict that in a month or so these will be cleared out at a nice discount.[/quote]

There's a Urban Outfitters down here in Miami and it was actually where I first discovered the Muggs. I bought the Venom that day for $20, then a few weeks later I saw them at Target for $10. :bomb:

Of course, I wouldn't feel bad about paying $20 for Venom ... at least until the re-issue shows up ... but even then, these things seem to fly off the shelf and Venom has a chance at being worth quite a bit more than $10 or even $20.
 
[quote name='Cmosfm']Can someone please elaborate on this Ultra Rare Wolverine, I've seen it mentioned several times but no one seems to go into detail[/quote]


Because not much is known about it. So that's why it gets mentioned but never goes into detail. If I ever find one I will go into detail about it and post it up.

What are you talking about? Where did you hear about a "rare" Wolverine?
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']What are you talking about? Where did you hear about a "rare" Wolverine?[/quote]

When I was a member over on the Muggs Lounge. But I'm not allowed there anymore. It was in one of the for sale posts and they said it costed a crap load.

I could be wrong as well since it is the Lounge. Yah No love for them at all by me since I was Banned for going to another forum. But that is a whole differnt topic anyways
 
yeah, i don't think it really exists. very little squeaks past the internet these days, and a quick google search finds that we are the only people talking about it. if it was really out there, more people would know about it. i mean, think about it... comic book fans CAN'T WAIT to get online and brag about their ultra-rare stuff. i'm guessing it was probably some lame one-shot error, like a wolverine in a yoda box or something, that a lounger attempted to bank on by claiming it was a super-rare variant.


Ahadi - clear your PMs
 
FINALLY! Finally saw some new Marvel MM. These things are super scarce in my area but I managed to finally see: Silver Surfer, Wolverine, That Galcatus dude, Human Torch. I'm still keeping my eye out for Iron Man.

You know you are probably 100% correct. Good thinking.

Hah. Sorry about that. Try now.

PS, grabbed Surfer, Galactus, and Torch. All I want from Marvel now is Thor and Dr. Doom until I see more Fantastic Four Muggs. Though I am tempted to pick up a Wolverine cuz he's neat looking. And maybe a few others when I'm out hunting for Star Wars Muggs.
 
For my fellow CAGers in Nor Cal, the Urban Outfitters in Santa Cruz had a ton of MMs in stock. Granted they were $20 a piece, but they had iron man, the thing, dr. doom, spider-man, ghost rider, etc. The only one they didn't have was venom ... but for anyone looking for iron man, I suppose $20 is better than not finding it at all. Oh, and they also had Princess Leia, Jango Fett, chewie, yoda and a couple other SW's muggs you don't see as much.

Oh, btw, food for thought ... what would you guys say is the most valuable Mugg right now?

The one you are talking about is probably the hibernating Wolverine, the one without eyes, that is the only Wolverine I seen on there that is different. Similar to the Wolverine I have, that one is probably some painting error as DocRamon said.

Anyway, I really cannot complain enough about the quality of paint job of Muggs these days. I saw another Captain Rex today in Target and it had one of the worst paint job I have seen. There was a patch of paint on left side of his chin as if it was an attempt of some sort to fix/cover up, I suppose, another bad paint job. :whistle2:x

The most valuable Mugg for non exclusive one is probably Venom.
 
I finally got around to opening my SS and I gotta say, I'm a bit disappointed in the paint job...luckily its not noticeable upfront, but if you pick it up, you can see that the head has a touch up of paint from cheek to cheek, it looks like it was finger painted. :whistle2:|

No problem. Glad to help, also to clarify some confusions.:D

Sucks to hear that LinkinPrime, but that is one of the biggest problem that some of the current Muggs seem to suffer, either they are trying to put out more Muggs and loosen the quality control, or just plain suck quality control these days.

Hopefully re-release Venom would not suffer such problem or suffer too badly.:whistle2:|
 
the touch up painting is the WORST. that's the problem i have with my c-3po, which is why i'm looking for another one. i couldn't tell by looking in the box, but the left side of his head (the side covered by the box, not open to the window half) looks like it had several holes in the plastic, that they attempted to cover up with putty and paint over. it looks AWFUL.

i also have a leia and a stormtrooper with issues. they're white characters, so marks stand out so much worse. the back of the stormtroopers all-white head and the back of leia's all-white torso (spots i couldn't see when i bought them) look like a 3-year-old went nutz with a black magic marker.

and i just got a blank black mugg in the mail today from hasbro... it looks like oil/grease has stained spots around the neck. i could try to complain, but it seems weird bitching that my all-black mugg is blacker in some spots than he (or she) is in the others.
 
I got to work a couple minutes early and decided to stop in Target. I wasn't expecting much but I found Marvel wave 4 (again). I picked up Human Torch because the box was in excellent condition. Passed on Galactus because didn't want to buy 2 at once and passed on Silver Surfer because it was the dent version and the box was meh.

Saw a Star Wars mugg ripped open from the top. Wonder how long that will sit there.

Now that you mention it, I think my SS has touch up paint on the lower side "jaw" area. Looks like the SS variants we get to choose from are "dented head" edition or "sloppy silver paint" surfer ... hopefully it's not a trend, although one thing I did notice when comparing an old wolverine to the rerelease is that that paint seemed cleaner on the new edition. My only guess is that they may have changed the old rubber heads to harder plastic because of the paint application? Just a thought
 
I told myself I would stop buying toys a year ago, and I held off on buying these Mighty Muggs when I saw them. However, the other day I saw a Iron Man Mugg, and I just had to have it so I picked it up. Fast forward three days later and I already picked up Wolverine, Spiderman, Black Spiderman, Hulk, and Captain America. Man these things are addicting, and they look great on display. I will probably only end up getting the Marvel ones, and maybe a few Transformers when those are released. Add me to the Mighty Mugg club.

:D
 
[quote name='supermodestmouse']has anyone seen te punisher or know where to get him? is he even out yet?! >.

[quote name='PenguinoMF']Punisher and Jigsaw are going to be Toys R Us exclusives. I heard it these were suppose to be released in November but Marvel wave 4 was suppose to be release in October and those are out already. So maybe sometime in October?


So it looks like Hasbro is canceling the production of Indiana Jones wave 3 and 4.[/quote]

The rumor is that The Punisher will be available in all stores due to him being on the back of the Wave 5 boxes, and that the Jigsaw/Punisher TRU exclusive is a 2 pack bundle.

Good news on Punisher, now I might actually be able to snag him, not driving an hour to a TRU and don't have a CC at the moment to order from TRU.com and don't want to mess with Ebay any more.

I worded that wrong. It's not a template, it's my design for Spawn. I used a template from DeviantArt.

There's a template on DeviantArt.com that pretty much everyone's using...It's blocked at work so I can't link it.

That's from the Mighty Muggs Forum Btw. ;)
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']Why did you get kicked out?[/quote]

Cause I signed up over at Mighty Muggs Forum. They have been doing it a lot once they find out you post over at Mighty Muggs Forum. Some people just can't take competition to well I guess. Would have been nice to have two sites devoted to Muggs.

And No I didnt spam The Forums over at the lounge either. I was a good member who posted in the For Sale. Hell I had good feedback on there as well. But Oh well. Sh*t Happens right?
 
Anyone know the chances that these will actually hit some sort of clearance/sale at Urban Outfitters? I stopped by one yesterday and they had quite a few I'd be interested in, but not for $20. They also had these cool Simpsons Kidrobot mini-vinyl figures, but they're $8, only stand about 2in high, and you don't know which one you're getting inside the box.
 
[quote name='yukafls']I might be able to get a hold of a venom or 2. I will post back later today.[/quote]

I'd be very interested in one if you are able to score an extra.
 
[quote name='yukafls']I might be able to get a hold of a venom or 2. I will post back later today.[/QUOTE]

Oh man, I would like to find one too.

Anyway, I hate to bring bad news to Muggs hunters, but Target seems to have raise the price for all Muggs to $10.99.:whistle2:(

By all means, if you want to you can use it.
 
So I've been seeing the newest Marvel wave around stores quite a bit (Torch, etc). Any ideas on which ones are the most rare in the new wave? I'm guessing wolverine is technically the least rare since it's a re-release.
 
[quote name='supermodestmouse']how can you tell which one is the re-release and which one is the rare one?[/QUOTE]

Back of the box (first wave pics or 4th wave pics), but I wouldn't say either one is really all that rare, considering I've seen both on several occasions. This could just be me, but the paint application on the head seems a bit cleaner on the re-release.

Damn, these things are sweet![/quote]

Damn. I can't seem to find Thor or Ghost Rider. My TRUs suck when it comes to having Marvel MMs in stock. I might have to finally bite on the Indy MM. Nice haul for your 1st day.
