minimadman Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I was meandering around TRU a few days ago and happened across this. I guess play along toys liked the look of mighty muggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Yeah, that does look pretty dang close However, I like the proportions of these more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shup Dude Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Are there only Smurf ones of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappy Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Yeah, McFarlane is coming out with some stuff that could be Muggs cousins. Guess it's an easy bandwagon to jump on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Minimate Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hehe, these look cute The legs seem kinda far apart, don't you think? Go Smurf! (He's the mascot of my school house ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 available on-line also Being a fan of Muggs, I kind of like the idea of this. I wondering if they'll be making more (not like it'd take much to customize these). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that would go in the mighty mugg thread or the non-minimate ebay thread. Have you tried the search function? Stinking Noob ... Newb ... rascally varmit.

IndieMate Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Mcfarlane Toys also have their Mugg-ish toys based off of Halo, and they look downright horrible. I never thought any thing could look worse than the Muggs, but wow, these SUCK. http://i.toynewsi.com/g/index.php?mode=vie...800&start=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I agree that these suck, but if they did the right license (Metal Gear Solid?), then I might pick one or two up. . .or maybe not. At least these aren't as blatant a rip-off as the Smurf ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) Mezco's new Mez-itz now have a very Muggish appearance. They are supposed to be available in 6 inch and 2 inch sizes. http://toyfair09.figures.com/showgallery.php?cat=670 I had no idea that Mighty Muggs were so popular Edited April 3, 2009 by Turtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Ohh I could really go for that Hellboy and Dracula Mez Mugg thingys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I had no idea that Mighty Muggs were so popular They were all going on sale at Wal-Mart/Urban Outfitters not long ago. So, who knows? Maybe these guys really underestimated the Muggs' popularity during its height last year or something. Definitely interested in the Mez-Itz Jason Muggs-thing, and the Freddy and Dracula ain't too shabby, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I really don't like seeing Mezco follow someone else's lead. They are normally a pretty creative company, but these are pure knockoffs. I guess it would be cool to have Mugg Vader facing off against Jason Mugghees. Mezco at least has some pretty nifty properties. The original Mez-Itz, though fairly Kubricky, felt more inspired than these. Hmm. I guess Hasbro, with Star Wars, Joes, Marvel, Indiana Jones, and Transformers, is really at the forefront of the market. It's almost like everything else HAS to be compatible with those lines. And while there is a lot to be said for compatibility, there is also a lot to be said for diversity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Mez-Itz seem to get some excellent licences but they all look like Meh! Shitz! I looked for the laugh there but they are rubbish . Sorry I never usually slander any toy but they are lame. My love of Muggs is well known but at least I understand the love for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 True, the only thing worse than a Mez-Itz is a Kubrick. Blah. And with the Mezco mugg-thingies, I like the idea of 2in ones. If the Hasbro Muggs were smaller and a little cheaper, I think they would've been a bigger seller than they have been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 True, the only thing worse than a Mez-Itz is a Kubrick. Blah. I guess it's yet another Groundhog Day,same ol' faces,same ol' comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Yup. And when I got up today, I saw my shadow. Looks like it's gonna be six more weeks of Kubrick bashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
