Just got the flyer from Entertainment Earth today and it lists wave 9 as a shared exclusive like wave 8. It only shows one of the four muggs in the assortment and that is the Biker Scout. It says the rest will be announced Feb.25th. It does say that the other three are all from the Original Trilogy. Seems like they coming out pretty fast now even if they are online exclusives!

Man, he looks AWESOME. I DESPISE this "shared exclusive" nonsense... What this essentially means is retail stores are no longer selling Mighty Muggs, which is awful for the line. The death of it, perhaps? Thoughts guys?

I though wave 8 might have been a fluke. Now, I'm starting to think that the "target" wave was exclusive to them because no other retailer ordered it, hence it was their exclusive by default. Well have to see how this plays out with the rest of the lines, which we have yet to see go exclusive. Walmart around here have not restocked ANY Mighty Muggs since early December, Target has been the only store to get new waves.

I was hoping you'd say it ain't so, Jo, say it ain't so.

Aw man, that would really be disappointing if major retailers stop carrying Muggs. I have noticed Walmart's lack of restocking Muggs. It also seems that when they did restock it was with wave 1 and 2 Star Wars Muggs, which aren't going to fly off the shelves to quickly. Also having canceled waves before they're even out such as transformers wave 3...it does look like muggs might be ending What this essentially means is retail stores are no longer selling Mighty Muggs, which is awful for the line.

Of course, those sneaky guys at Hasbro might stick an EP I royal guard in there, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

The article also says that all four are from the original trilogy. After it says they won't be available at "big box" store, it says,"The other three come from each of the movies in the in the original trilogy."
