Remember Might Muggs?
![These little guys may be getting a movie deal. I'm not kidding.](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzq_sJhQnFkJIwywg1VZmmkJhhqraSkeh2HkXiZGZtZ6OLlT3Nm6qibLqAzCZl2ILgTVmPC4fVvqSEJc3qjD8ckzX64G1rzRjiWp1pW_FNwrq-oDW3x_f7smryitrkdwbFpVv27R3fQ5c/s320/Mighty+Marvel+Muggs.jpg)
Yes, these adorable but slightly fetus-like collectable homunculi were all over the place . They may not be as popular as they once were, but guess what? DC Comics has there own knock off Mighty Mugs coming out from Mezco! They're called Mez-Itz, and I'm sure you can't wait to get one!

Or maybe DC missed the peak of this collector's fad by almost two years. Many collector's realized vinyl figures like Muggs (and therefore Mez Itz) were a black hole for money that wasn't something you could rationalize in this economy. Hasbro doesn't even make Mighty Muggs anymore.

Good luck keeping those out of the clearance aisle.](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ-XkaXgSko4wKJthBSynV931o2L6_nlCfub3A1fKDgES-mIwhPMsaGlkwjPY-pX-s1K8y2S1riEThG7IE0tU0iN4w9UK-v-MJnT5XWspCtwA6ht3BSwEKIMS-c1bYe4lqm7frHYRx8RY/s320/dcminimezitswave2.jpg)
They look nice, but lots of nerds have already sold off their Muggs to pay for last year's convention tickets. Unless they plan on releasing these backwards through time; I don't see much demand.
