Did anybody's Target move the Megos from the end cap to an aisle? My Target's endcap is gone and now I can't find them. As of yesterday at least one of the three stores still had the endcap. Not sure about the second store. The third. Store never had any display of figures.

Checked 2 more targets today and they still had the endcap. The one in Frisco TX actually had the Full House two pack.

Stopped in one Target today, and they still had the endcap. Everything was marked down, but nothing from series 2 yet.

Would it be alright if we could talk about all the different 8 inch mego style figures from different companies, past and present, in this thread? And to kyrockyfan, thank you for posting and starting this thread.

Alright. Thanks,PJ. Vincent Barajas, the writer of the AICN interview with Marty Abrams, posted on Mego Museum that he got to interview Mr. Abrams again for the worlds largest Star Trek website and the interview should be released at the end of the month. He said they talked about the Mego/Star Trek relationship past, present, and future. Said there would be some interesting tidbits and he would pop back on to the museum to talk about what got cut out of the interview due to length. Comic Book Central had a Mego round table podcast the Marty Abrams, Paul Clarke(Dr. Mego) and Brian Heiler(curator of the Mego Museum). A good chunk of it was about the history of the company and how it came back. They did talk about how going forward if they can’t use the likeness of the actor on a figure they won’t be doing that property. They also said they would like to do vehicles and playsets. 6 Million Dollar Man, Bionic Woman, and The Greatest American Hero were brought up and they are open to all 3. FTC have been previewing some up coming figures on their Twitter feed and The Creeper looks like a homerun. Two versions of The Riddler look pretty solid too. I did get a set of The Monkees and my only complaint is there is something off about Peter. Other than that they are pretty good figures. The cloth accessories are good. Their a little lighter then the new Megos but not by much. Will be buying more from FTC.

The new Marty Abrams interview is on TrekMovie.com. He says mego can do all tv shows and movies except for discovery.

Grumpyoldman it was Monroe NY. The 12” and 2-Pack was on the Mego endcap, but the new singles were in the aisle with the WWE & ML figures. They were on a peg between Ml and the Batman Missions line.

The Target near me had an end cap set up for about a month. Yesterday it was gone.I looked in every aisle, but I couldn't find them. They had a few figures set up in the clearance section, though. I hope this means they're finally getting a regular aisle spot.

I saw in 2 different Targets that they had moved the Mego figures next to the WWE figures now.
