Re: OS POPS! Thread

Picked up a couple exclusives today:



Didn't expect Walgreens to actually have Hawkeye but they did, decided to stop by ATT after since it sounded like Night King released today and he did.

Wasn't planning to try and get all of the Endgame exclusives but after I lucked into Ronin on walmart.com decided I'm going to try now, picked up Thor from gamestop today, that just leaves Rocket from walmart, 10" Thanos from Target, and the Hulk t-shirt bundle from Hot Topic.

Captain America glow in the dark with t-shirt is live for pre-order on FYE but only with size M and XL for whatever reason.

Re: OS POPS! Thread

Got my money back from my preorders with nerdycollectibles through Amazon and then having to use American express for the older one. It was too old to get an a to z guarantee on.

Will have to try to find another online shop to preorder sets as they are usually cheaper and takes less time finding them. Switched to EE for now for preorders.


Getting my hot topic Deku and the Woody woodpecker chase (bought off ebay since the preorder issue) by Thursday

Funko is now trying to prove people will buy anything with pop on it.

They are selling a tshirt with a box to put a pop in with a background printed on the inside of the box.

New Venomized wave announced today:



Groot, Thanos, Storm, Rocket, Daredevil, and X-23

Up for preorder on Entertainment Earth, I ordered them all since I'm going for that full line, I need to pull the trigger and buy Ghostrider I keep putting it off but it's the only one I missed from wave 1.

Speaking of entertainment earth, and maybe I'm just new to how this works, but it seems like they are quick to push dates back. I preordered about 10 pops that were supposed to be out in April per their website and now its changes and all 10 say May yet I'm seeing private sellers selling the ones I'm waiting on. Is this common when preordering online?

Re: OS POPS! Thread

I know they tend to run about a month behind GameStop, Hot Topic, etc, haven’t paid much attention to dates changing but wouldn’t surprise me, Funko doesn’t tend to have firm release dates when they announce so it could be when they first go up its more of a placeholder then they change it when they get a firm date.

I will say I do get stuff from them ahead of the projected date at times.

I’ll try to start paying closer attention, I usually lock my preorders in without even paying much attention to date so it’s entirely possible that when I check my order later it could have been switched.

Large stores get them first and if usually moves from west coast to east coast. Smaller shops get them a few weeks later. Then online retailers usually are last to get them.

EE is a large distributor, so it may take a little extra time to send to retail customers.

Good thing about EE is for preorder pops, they will get them and send to you. Plus you pay only when it ships. The dates are usually just a month though, so that is on Funko and they aren't great about providing release dates.

The ones you may not get are the ones already out that you can order when they expect a restock. Those may or may not happen and dates move all the time.

Re: OS POPS! Thread

Hopefully I'm not waiting on a restock otherwise it defeats the purpose of preordering. The ones I noticed in the wild were Babe Ruth and Muhhamad Ali. What's really throwing me off are the MLB mascots as they were dated for April, changed to May but on another website they have them now listed as May 2020 so I haven't a clue what's going on there. I'd like to think I didnt preorder something that's been pushed back a year but since this is the first time ever preordering anything like this I also dont really know how it plays out typically.

Re: OS POPS! Thread

Seems like Babe Ruth and Ali are just starting to hit stores the past week or two so I’d imagine those will be hitting EE soon.

As far as the MLB mascots that falls more on Funko than retailers, Funko is bad about announcing stuff but not giving a release date, sites throw them up knowing they’re coming but having no real idea when some happen right away others take a long time, that’s why I prefer EE though since you know you’re good to go once they do get them in stock and you don’t get charged until it ships.

The restock stuff won't be pre-order, they have another stock category for it.

Those 2 will be out soon, but it's normal crap since they are common and will be released whenever. They just went online today at major stores.

The MLB mascots are out this year, but who knows exactly. They could be all at once or over the year. They just released a video of them, so they should be out soon.

Re: OS POPS! Thread

It's been a while since I posted any pickups... and I'm sure I missed some. I decided to do an Iron Man case, so I picked up those to go with what I already had. Ordered Darth Maul from Walgreens.com (first time ordering online with them).

Decided to finish out the first Venomized wave, first Pop I've bought that wasn't at retail.
