Fantastic topic here, I feel like I should be laying on a couch and sharing my thoughts. To the folks who mentioned the bobbleheads, clone helmets, and kids gone wild, you're spot on.
The completely unfriendly Target employees are starting to become obnoxious as well.
The day I never see Hulk or Palpatine will be a proud day.
Sincerely,
A Cairo Swordsman

Its like "oh hey, looks like they have a ton of new mu....oh nevermind....its just the four hundred and thirty two Hulks that have been there since the dawn of time." so theres that....and....the employees that look at you like you are bothering them for asking them to actually do thier job and get off the mobile.

Great thread.... and I confess I am a bit surprised about the glut of hulks (and a few others, if the threads I am reading here are any indication)

i think im going to start hiding all the hulks in like the shoe department. maybe they will think they sold and bring out back stock. im so sick of walmarts. seriously it's like the lowest of the low shop there. here in cali it cant get any worse.

Wal-Mart is a complete cluster, but I have to admit, they have come through with all of the toughest Muggs to find (atleast in my sitch).
I hate all of the filled parking lots too! Drives me crazy!!

Those gosh dang bobble heads. Just taunting and tauting me. Bobbing their heads left to right as if to tell me; "There are no muggs here, we are taking over now!."
Stop the bobbing!!!!!!!
Wouldn't be so bad if TRU and Target did not have them in the exact same spot next to one another as if they collaborated against the MML.
Oh, someone mentioned something about the employees, let's give them a little credit, we have no clue how many times they've been asked about Mighyt Muggs in one day, never mind the week and most often by the same person. Go have kids and have them ask you for the same thing day in and day out then you will understand.

What i hate is finding a figure that use to be hard to get like Stormie is everywhere now or Vader. I still have the compulsion to buy them as if they were the rarest thing in the world, ive bought like 7 stormies and 5 vaders, dam they look good all lined up next to each other.

Ha, I can top that. I decided to go ahead and pick up Mola Ram, got to Target and saw two of them on the shelf, picked up one, and looked at his head piece, and noticed that the tip of each one was chipped, one so bad the entire tip was missing and you could see a jagged edge, the other one the tip was there, but it was only half a tip. I am not picky by any means, but that is just bad. That is a damaged item!

I've realized another woe.
You scan the box, the reader says that there are more in the back, you ask an associate to check and pull your hair out as they fumble with their scanner to double check what and where.
You then wait in agony for what feels like eternity. Hoping amongst hope that they do indeed have something in the back. Pray that what they have in the back is something you want. Making yourself giddy at the fact that it MAY just be that one Mugg you've been looking for for months. Dreading all the money you're about to spend at the possibility of what they bring out being the next full wave you desire.
That my friends, is the ultimate woe.
