Any pics Jose? I hope this isnt the new Muggs being accounced at the Con. I was hoping for more Marvel and GI Joe.........

[Jose G.]

Not yet, just a listing. I'm sure they'll have these at Con. I would count on seeing more Marvel at con but not G.I Joe or Transformers. Not yet anyway.

Very depressing. I want Joes and TFers.

i haven't heard of this jose....but i am ready to purchase

[indymuggs]

I wonder why they're only selling the Indy Line with three to a wave instead of the four like Star Wars and Marvel.

[Mightyfanatic]

My guess is the expected number of possible characters (as opposed to expected demand). While Indie is great, the sheer number of Marvel universe characters and even Star Wars characters tops them several times over.

yeah...i have to agree with richard....the indy muggs line doesn't have a big group of characters that they can make and this is most likely why they put only 3 different ones per case. it will help the line to last longer

[indymuggs]

There aren't many Indy ones (Sadly ) but these Muggs look fantastic and I can't wait for the new ones that are coming out...

"We named the dog Indiana."

OMG I can't wait!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I can't wait for a Short Round.

"Hold on to your potatoes!"

Not to "diss" the Indy ones. But I Am sort of surprised Indy got Muggs over the likes of GI Joes and TFers. I would not think either that they would sell as well as Marvel and SW.

Given the timing of the Indie movie, versus the upcoming GI Joe movie (and the fact we're "between" Transformers" movies), I would guess had something to do with it ... but I still anticipate the other two (given what they've done with the recent addition of the "superhero squad" type lines for Transformers (robot heroes line) and soon GI Joe.

Ya Richard, I completely agree with the movie aspect of it all. I guess I Am not as big of a Indy fan. As I Am of Marvel and SW(hopefully GI Joes and TFers) Muggs. But I do still want the Indy Muggs.

[Mightyfanatic]

Yeah, it sounds like we're in synch on this... much as I like the Indie Muggs, the thought of Optimus Prime, Megatron, Cobra Commander or Zartan ,to name just a few) are even more enticing... (don't get me started on DC comics character Muggs ... THAT would be my Holy Grail...)

BUT... since this is an Indie Mugg thread .... we'll save that discussion for elsewhere!! ;D

Ha ya. So many things I want in Mugg form. But like you said a different topic for a different part of the board.
