MEGO-Dracula/Bela Lugosi

[Mord]

Has anyone tried a Target "Super-store"? That's where I found all the "Monstervile" stuff last year.

[Anton Phibes]

Yup. Me. I got nada. So, I am going to pay out the extra clams and buy from a scalper one state away. At some point, my time and gas have to come into the equation. I have already ran since Friday to three Targets ever day. I am done,lol. I don't wanna waste any more time or gas.

You and I have had this talk about chasing things down in order to have the "honor' or "privilege" of being able to buy a product. It's horrible on the nerves, I think we can agree lol. So I caved and went to ebay.

If the Wolfman and Frankenstein are simply re-releases with slight tweak of the EMCE figures, I can pass them by. But this Dracula will go quite nicely with DD's Dracula wave....so I had to have it.

Yeah, this is pretty dumb.  Forcing us to run all over the place just to find these things, wasting time and gas.  If they stocked plenty, we wouldn't be having this issue.  Stock 10 or more, and we'd be okay.  But if you only stock 2, if you don't get there early enough, some scalper will.  It's insane.  Not having them on the website on the release date... also dumb.  Not a fan.

Checked two Targets and zilch. It's a wild goose chase.

I agree, I might just buy it on line. The fun has been taken out of it. I went back to one of the Targets and the girl that works there said they didn't even get any in and it was sold out on the Target site.

Are they doing any more monster figures, or just Dracula?

-Andy

Chaney Jr. Wolf Man and Frankenstein's Monster are upcoming.

Chaney Jr. Wolf Man and Frankenstein's Monster are upcoming. 

Shannon, are the Wolfman and Frankie all new (like Lugosi) or are they re-releases of the EMCE figures (like Sulu and Checkov?) I have heard the latter, and I wish for the former.

Personally, if I ever find a Norm from Cheers figure on closeout, I might paint his hair white, dress him in lederhosen and turn him into the Burgomaster from Frankenstein! However, I'm not sure how feasible it would be to customize an Alice from The Brady Bunch into an Una O'Connor figure.

Grabbed one for a reasonable price. Thanks for the heads-up!

Just got one of the Target site. In these cases, I usually like to see the item that I'm buying to see the condition. Hopefully, I'll get a good one.

Looks like they're sold out online again.

[aura of foreboding]

Wow.  Didn't get him online.  How long was he up for?  Heading back to the stores.

AGGGHHH!!!!!  I swear, is Target in business to sell things and make a profit or is their goal just to torment fans???
