Well, I got notification today that all the cases of Waves 3 & 4 I have on order have been cancelled and that the manufacturer will not be producing them.

What I was going to type was profanity filled so I will just say I am disappointed.

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. Well you can choose not to believe me, but my source is pretty reliable and important - I can't give them away but I know that having seen and held those muggs (wave 3 + SR and Sallah) in packaging I tend to agree that they will still be released. Time will tell... they told me around Nov 15th so I'm keeping my hopes up until then.

Perhaps these cancelled Indy Muggs will show up as retailer exclusives some time in the future. Is Shortround and Sallah sell well through EE, I don't see what they (or some other e-tailer) wouldn't do another set. Gotta get Satipo somehow...

I can see why this wave was canceled. Im surprised it went as long as it did. the casual collector just walking though the toy isle probably doesn't have any instrest in indy muggs and in result it showed in the sales. i hope they go more of the way of exclusives with this line and not let it completely die off

I am really sad to see these go. I was really looking forward to getting Young Indy. Hopefully these will end up being retailer exclusives so that the people who really wanted these will have a chance at getting the last 2 waves. Its just torture to see the ones that might have been.

Indy just doesn't have the lasting power as Marvel and Star Wars does. In fact, those two lines and DC are pretty much the only real toy lines that you can find available at any store at almost any time period.

What a drag! Like many here, though, I kind of saw it coming. Wave 1 took longer to sell out than almost any other MM line, and wave 2 is still all over the place. I didn't like many of the other domestic Indy toys (Sideshow and Lego excluded), so I was really happy when this license was announced. No Toht, no Marion, no Sallah, no Belloq, no flying wing mechanic. Crap.

I've only ever seen Wave 2 in the stores ONCE. I think the main problem was that Wave one sold out of the first orders really fast, then the retailers placed second orders that were too big, plus the time between waves was way too long.

Just an FYI, my local comic book store brought up his orders through Diamond, and Wave 3 is in stock. He ordered a box for me. Apparently Diamond is showing they have 28 boxes in stock. Now until I have it in hand I wont believe it, but it would appear that Wave 3 (Indy Tux) is on its way! There are no other listings. Anyone else hearing the same things from their mighty muggs dealers?

I am fairly disappointed in this. I was really hoping to score a Toht, Spalko, and Young Indy. Shame really.
