I just don't get why I can't find any info on this toy, anywhere? Nothing on the Super7 websiite. Nothing on the Target websiite. Nothing on eBay. Nothing on a Google search. Nothin'! It can't be a fake, if somebody found one at Target.

Yeah, VERY strange.  Especially since they apparently don't have to have a license thru Universal, you'd think they'd promote it.  It's clearly a different figure from their other Glow Mutant, which is cast in blue glow plastic.  This one looks greenish in color. 

I won't be looking for it at my local Target.  They've never had anything from Neca or Super 7.

Anyone looked on ebay? Also, how do we know it isn't a gag? April 1 was only a month ago. :angel:

I don't get the joke. It's not like their "Invisible Man" that wasn't there.

Anyone who would do an April Fool's joke about toys that don't exist should be taken out and strung up from the nearest tree.

And if they don't, how could somebody find one at Target? It's a mystery!

I don't mean a joke by Super7. I mean it's a possibility someone produced this to have the effect its presently having, causing us all to go "how did I miss that?". It's been done before. might even have happened here,lol. It's probably not the case, but these days: ya just never know what kids get up to,lol. >:D

I emailed S7 and asked if they produced this thing. Waiting on a reply.

I found it odd when he was no longer being recognized as a Universal Monster. What's even more odd, is NOW there is no mention of the film or ANY Universal copyright on the packaging at all that I can see. Most curious. Wonder what's going on with this character???

Its on Targets website.   

Well, damn! I used their search with the obvious words and came up empty! Oh, well.

I searched "Super7 The Metaluna Mutant Monster Glow ReAction Figure" and still got nothing! What did you search?

So, will there be others?

I wonder if they will just do the ones that Remco didn't do?

Some of their "The Worst" figs. are getting the Remco treatment.

I was kind of assuming the rights had lapsed, since they did an Ultimates Metaluna Mutant Ultimates figure that apparently won't have This Island Earth branding either.
