Star Wars Mighty Muggs are Back – Still Mighty Even Mini …
Just when you thought the Mighty Muggs were pretty much done, they’re back!
Nice design … plus a test for real Star Wars fans … okay, not much of test to name them from these stylized designs … though you do not pass if you shout out GORN for the top left one … though he is very much GORN like, just not good enough. 🙂
The Mighty Muggs are now Mini Mighty Muggs but no less mighty.
There are three 3-packs.
While the box design looks like the original, the mini Mighty Muggs stand on a tray that slides across so while the design might look like three boxes jammed together, it’s all in one box … and actually nicely designed for collectors as it’s taped shut on the side, then the tray slides out with a soft plastic blister – you can pop them out for display and later, tuck them back in to store the box or display with the box.
This is the first wave – hopefully there will be a wave 2.
Nice – they take up much less room and a better deal at $12.99 for a set of three.
Here’s the Mighty Mugg Fett next to Mini Me Fett so you get a sense of scale.
Awesomeness – about the same. 🙂
The back of the box is great also – three different designs. Nice.
Only real problem is it’s a Target exclusive …
There is your DPCI.
Target also has another fun Star Wars exclusive – in case you missed out a long, long time ago, the original box art Tie Fighter is back!
It even has the fun Kenner logo … nice … it’s like they’re trying to take all our money.
Happy shopping and remember try to keep the holiday shopping ratio to 2 for yourself, 1 for others … well, at least try. And remember with a Target debit or credit card, you’re not spending money, you’re saving 5%. So, go out and help our economy!
(Our old Mighty Muggs checklist was here – not updated this year but still fun to look at).
I was wondering if we were going to see any Muggs again. I have all the Star Wars ones from before so I guess I will need to have these guys as well. I think they will do well in the office. Thanks for the heads up.
So cuuuuuuuute!
When you said ‘Mini’ I thought that the Mini Adventures had come back. What happened to those cute critters?
(MET: No official word but most likely canceled … I’m finishing up the checklist mag for those interested, should be ready in a couple weeks 🙂 ).
They also have an ESB ‘original box’ Snowspeeder Target exclusive.
loving the Mini Muggs .. I ended up picking up all 3 sets a few weeks ago.
They should have used the mini ones for Yoda, Ewoks, Jawas, etc…
Just like cars… change the packaging… make it “collectible”…
Buy then all!!
And yes, this Star Wars geek could’ve named all those from the eye shots without scrolling down…
2 of my 3 sons collected Star Wars items when they were younger… Now 23 and 29, I wonder if they’ll want any of these for Christmas.
