So...WalMart? (stocking issues)

[Reigner]

I don't mean to cry wolf here, but if you guys have Muggs at your WalMarts, start thinking about cleaning them out.

4 out of the 5 WalMarts around here no longer have shelfspace labeled for Mighty Muggs. All 4 of those WalMarts just got done with their store resets and restocked their toy departments too, and nothing.

Now I'm sure my little corner of the world isn't what you'd call a trend setter, but 80% is a high number to be labelled more than just a coincidence.

Anyone else starting to notice this?

Same here in NJ...i went to 2 wal-marts today and there is no place for the star wars and marvel muggs...they still have indy muggs...but i suspect that as soon as they are all gone..thier space will be removed as well. This is too bad!!!

not the case at 2 wal-marts I go to....they are FULLY stocked. However they are pretty skimpy on Marvel muggs, but have plenty of SW and Indy ones though...

i agree with this post. im seeing so many star wars muggs still out no way im going to see wave 5 anytime soon

[herobyday]

just to add im thinking im going to grab every star wars mugg and go hide them in another part of the store somewhere no one goes like sporting goods by the bike pumps. that way they will have no choice but to bring them out of the back.

Was thinking the same thing. Only Indy Muggs at my Wal Marts. I keep reading these "mother load" threads and hope that my 'marts will stock up soon.

same thing at my local walmart

at the walmart by my place the only marvel muggs they had for 3 months were 8 hulks talking up the whole marvel space. I suspect the same shelfing issues are at play.

Or you could buy them all and either A. keep them until they put new ones out or B. return them to a different store. I mean I said nothing.

I actually picked up my Thing Mugg from Walmart, ever since I have never seen a mugg there again.

i also noticed this, my walmart restocked a grip of star wars. everything from jango, boba, c3po, stormtroopers, etc.

i finally found my vader and black spidey.

For the longest time my Wal-Marts Mugg selection consisted of a Bespin Luke or two, Emperor Palpatine and a few Hulks and Captain America's. All of a sudden a Mugg bomb went off. They're now swimming in just about every Star Wars one and pretty much all the Marvel ones. (sans Venom and Thing of course) Indy has kind of stalled out. I've only seen the first wave and they've been sitting on those for a while now.

I don’t think Reigner is too far off the mark though. At least at my Wally-world they’ll sell out of something and never get anymore in.
