groundhog7s Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 clearance Mighty Muggs Several you can get with the Site-to-Store option and save on shipping. If anything, it looks like some cheap custom fodder if you've already got these. Quote
Dio Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 (edited) You guys should also check your Target's clearance aisle, some Muggs and Marvel Legends figures are only $3. I was tempted to buy the Cairo swordsman so that my Mark III Iron Man could wield the swords XD Edited February 4, 2009 by Dio Quote
karamazov80 Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Marvel Legends figures are only $3. As if my Targets ever kept a Marvel Legend in stock for more than a couple minutes. Good one! Quote
Dio Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 No really! It was an X3 Jean Grey XD I used plural because it's possible there may be more than one at other Targets. Quote
handsomedevil Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Thanks, Groundhog- I just ordered the Iron Man! Quote
Punisher Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 No really! It was an X3 Jean Grey XD I used plural because it's possible there may be more than one at other Targets. I think K is being sarcastic due to the fact that Hasbro ML's are the biggest peg warmers ever. My Target finally decided to mark down series one marvel legends this January Quote
karamazov80 Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Actually I was being serious--apart from a few left-overs from the Fang Foom wave, I haven't seen any Legends figures at my local Targets in a long time. Surely none of the Red Hulk wave. Some of the crappy X3 ones do warm pegs at my local TRU, though. Quote
groundhog7s Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 I never saw much around here, especially the She-Hulk one. It's the only one I still need to build Fin Fang Foom. Right now, he looks real sad being decapitated. Quote
Twisted Two-Face Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Shame. I wish my TRUs or Targets would refresh their ML stocks. ALl they have nowadays are those stupid Black Spideys from the Red Hulk wave. I want an Emma and X3 Jean, Goddammit!! Of course, my LCS has X3 Dark Phoenix for cheap (i don't think he knows it's a variant) which i'm hesitant to buy. I think i want Jeanie before i get one with pale-grey, veinny skin. Quote
TM2 Dinobot Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I never saw much around here, especially the She-Hulk one. It's the only one I still need to build Fin Fang Foom. Right now, he looks real sad being decapitated. Wish I'd known that. She's the only one I ever say on clearance. Quote
groundhog7s Posted February 5, 2009 Author Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks for sharing. I've got a cut on my finger-do you think you could pour some lemon juice on it while you're at it? Quote
luke314pi Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Ok I ordered 10 muggs, some for myself, and some for customs. These are cheaper than the blank muggs, especially with the site-to-store shipping, and I will just prime them before repainting them. Quote
TM2 Dinobot Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 You know, I'm giving serious thought to ordering a few of these and repainting them, just for the resale value. Put them on ebay, just to see what happens. Only problem is, I've never painted a Mugg before. Any tips? Quote

Put them on ebay, just to see what happens. Only problem is, I've never painted a Mugg before. Any tips? Its not much different than painting a minimate, you just need more paint. If you are mixing custom colors, you should mix a good amount of it and keep it in an empty jar. Otherwise it can be difficult to mix the identical color again, and you will see the discoloration on the figure. Larger brushes are better for large areas to get a smoother surface, while smaller brushes are obviously better for details. Make sure the paint you are using isn't too thick, or it will leave brush strokes that are noticeable. Alternatively, if it is too thin, it could run and leave drop marks. That's all that comes to mind for now. I hope it helps! Quote
Webhead Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I picked up Doom and Iron Man. Sweet!!! Quote
Mulder Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Sweet I never got around to picking up Hulk or Doom. I did now with site to store. Quote
groundhog7s Posted February 7, 2009 Author Posted February 7, 2009 I expect a small commission from any customs made and sold based on the link I posted. Quote
handsomedevil Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Has anyone seen any of the older Star Wars Muggs on clearance anywhere? I passed on a lot of the good guys (Luke, Han, Chewie) when they came out & now I'm regretting it... Quote

I passed on a lot of the good guys (Luke, Han, Chewie) when they came out & now I'm regretting it... I've not seen them anywhere. Someone hooked me up with a Chewie, and I got a Han and Boba Fett off ebay. Ebay will probably be your best friend on this one unfortunately. Quote
Punisher Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I was at a Target pretty far away from where i live recently, and thy had a TON of old Star Wars ones. I think i remember seeing Boba Fett, Palpatine, Bespin Luke, Han Solo, and Darth Maul. So I guess if you get lucky you can see some from different waves at different places. Quote
TM2 Dinobot Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I got an Indy for $3. Any trade dibs on him before I bust out the paints? And if not, any one want the hat and whip? Quote
Webhead Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 Ok so I order Hulk, Iron Man, and Dr. Doom (who I don't have yet) using Walmart's site to store. I go in to pick them up yesterday and they lost the package! They have it on record as arriving but had to credit my money back. Anyone get this alot? I'm guessing some worker took a five finger discount. I just reordered again but now there's no iron man available Quote
groundhog7s Posted February 13, 2009 Author Posted February 13, 2009 I've used site-to-store 9-10 times and never had a problem (other than the employees acting like it's a huge hassle to take care of getting my stuff). Quote
handsomedevil Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 I ordered my Iron Man on 2/4 using "site to store", but haven't received an email or call saying that it has come in. Did you get a notification, Webhead? Quote
