    What's up guys, went to my local comic shop to pick up the newest volume of Scott Pilgrim, and was pleasantly surprised to see that they'd gotten one set of these in. Since it was a comic shop they were selling them for not quite twice the price, so I only snagged the best one, which I thought was Megs.

    Not your usual TF, of course, but still very awesome. The paint job is very slick, and I love the details on the figure. There's a couple subtle scratches on the paint, but unless you're pretty OCD, it's not of any concern.

    The gun has a peg that attaches to a hole in the right arm:

    I was concerned that this might have some QC problems with the peg being too small for the hole or whatnot, but nope, it fits snugly and securely.

    Here's a comparison with the other Muggs I have:

    Overall, very awesome, and even if you're not a fan of Mighty Muggs, these definitely look great as a desk toy.

    Looks about as good as an un-round character painted onto a round form can. :)

    Wait, have these been sighted before? If not, then this is news. (It probably has, but I can't remember.)

    I personally like mighty muggs, and plan on getting this guy along with Soundwave when I see them.

    They are 10 dollars in the US. A bit expencive for all they really do is mover their arms and neck, but they still look pretty cool.

    Last I checked, Mighty Muggs were 12 bucks at Target. Guess the economy's even making cute vinyl toys higher in price.

    I got this guy for 20 bucks.
