Well Loungers I got official word from Hasbro and yes, Indiana Jones Mighty Muggs have been canceled, BUT....I was given a "never say never" as far as seeing more Muggs in the future. So don't lose all hope for this line yet.

So, that means Sallah and Short Round are canceled as well, or are they staying with those?

I heard Sallah and Shortround are still being made as EE Exclusives, but 3 & 4 cancelled. I never really liked this line, but as a couple people said, I feel bad for the fans of this line. Going to every Walmart/Target/Toysrus and seeing 5-10 Indy Muggs at every store, it doesnt really surprise me.

My EE Distribution account rep. told me a week ago that this will not affect Sallah and Short-Round. Sweet, that will be a great finale to the series line. BBTS pulled their versions of the pre-orders though, but they were a lot more expensive than the EE ones.

Well Loungers I got official word from Hasbro and yes, Indiana Jones Mighty Muggs have been canceled, BUT....I was given a "never say never" as far as seeing more Muggs in the future. So don't lose all hope for this line yet. Hey guys I have some good news... my secret insider contact has told me the following: contact: "I spoke with _______ and he says that the wave of Mighty Muggs that includes Spalko is definitely slated for release around Nov. 15. That'll include the Indy in Tuxedo Mugg!" me: Thank you! that's great news, But what about Short Round, Sallah, Young Indy, and Satipo??? contact: "I don't know about them I will talk to ________ again next time I see him. Although a good rule of thumb is, if they're already in packaging then they'll go to production." If the rule of thumb applies then Sallah and Shorty will still come through as I saw those in boxes - Young Indy and Satipo when I saw them were not in packaging so... doesn't look good. I will send more info on these guys if I get any but look for wave 3 in November fellow Muggers!

I'm at a loss...the companies that I order from say they're canceled, now mightyinsider says they're not. Too much drama.
The Short-Round and Sallah were listed higher at BBTS because they had to buy them from EE to get them. EE strictly doesn't allow their exclusives to be pre-sold by other retailers (it's a condition you agree to when you order them) so they probably made BBTS pull them until they get them in stock.
