whats the deal with Chase figures at Newbury Comics? like, i see a bunch of them at every one i go to....but they are always behind the register or up above the shelves of regular ones do they charge more for them or something? Newbury by me tends to charge online going rate for chases. They keep the pricing on the bottom side of the box, so it can be seen in the display. Last time I looked, they had a Freddy Krueger Chase, and were charging $54.99 for it.

Where do you get the popeye? I know it says specialty exclusive but not sure what that means The specialty series Funko figures can be found at smaller retailers like local comic shops. Honestly, they can be hard to find in person. However, just about any online store that sells Funko items will carry them. I don't think Entertainment Earth has them, but I know Toy Wars, Wildcard Toys, spam, Gemini Collectibles, and Ferrera Market all carry them (or at least have in the past). Also check out Newbury Comics if there is one locally. I have found most of the recent Specialty Series Pops there.

Grabbed a few of the GameStop boxes on Black Friday and finally got around to opening them. Have extra complete boxes of Megaman and Ryu. Looking to trade for other Pops, preferably straight up one for one for any of the other boxes (Raiden, Predator, Joker), or some other random POPs. Let me know if there is any interest.

I got my black and white grinch today Still gotta get the normal one (which I've seen a few times) and the chase which I have yet to see. Love the black and white Grinch. Glad I was able to get one before they sold out. Just waiting to get the box now!

If true, I will have multiples of every Jurassic Park one. I have been waiting years for JP pops to be announced!

Surprisingly found a Geoffrey Giraffe at retail today. Must have had one in the stockroom or something, they sold out super quick by me. Was right on the front of the shelf too!

I’ve decided to collect every WWE pop. Which is insane because I’m going to end up spending a fortune on the Punks and AJ Lee alone. In the last weeks I’ve bought: SDCC Ryder AJ Styles FYE Rollins Series 1 The Rock Iron Shiek M$M Series 1 Cena White New Day Chase Finn Regular Finn Goldberg Mick Foley (Such an odd choice by Funko) Chris Jericho I am down to needing just the AJ Lee myself. Also need the Wolfpac Sting and NWO Hogan! But Punk and Rey Mysterio set me back a bit! I think I have an extra Wolfpac Sting, let me know if youre interested.

Grabbed the Glow in the Dark Reptar and the FYE Exclusive Reptar at FYE yesterday. According to their signs, the exclusives are now in their "buy 2, get one 75% off deal". Last handful of times I have went to buy exclusives, they have been excluded from that sale. Does that include WWE Pops? I tried to include a WWE pop before during a sale and was told they were excluded. From what I saw on the signs, it was all exclusives, 2 pack exclusives as well, so I do not see why WWE would be excluded this time around. Let me know if it works!

The mediums that are shown in the pictures do look great! I'm personally used to using the fine ones on the packages, especially when it comes to DecoColor pens, love how they look. If using something like a PrismaColor, I can understand why Fine points may look thin. Totally depends on the brand it seems.

What's better? A fine paint pen or medium? Fine works the best on a figure. Id stay away from Extra Fine though, its very thin. Anything larger than a Fine point can look "blotchy"

Most of the Horror Pops are still in production and can be purchased for retail prices online. I think only Sam from Trick R Treat has been vaulted and is really pricey now. The Chase variants are the stinkers...blood splattered Leatherface with the original sticker is my ultimate grail but I can't justify paying the $110-120 it goes for online. The most I ever paid for a single Pop was $60 for Red Son Superman (+$10 more to have it mailed in a hardstack protector) and that's only because I missed its original release by 3 years and it's my absolute favorite Pop and one of my favorite comics ever. Love the chase Leatherface. I went away last year, stopped in on an FYE and found one. Grabbed it, as well as a Stantz ghostbuster, while passing up multiple complete sets of the first AHS pops. To my surprise, I saw the prices on Leatherface and was thrilled. Wish I bought all of the AHS ones!

I want Tdog but I'm grossed out by how much vaulted regular releases go for now. I missed out on Maggie. Why is Maggie now a $40 figure?! Merle Dixon should not cost me $50. My least favorite part of Pop collecting is the for profit part of it all. I wanted to get a few extra Jason Vorhees Pops, because I'm meeting 3 of the Jason's next weekend. No way am I spending $25 a piece on them though Just saw a Jason a little while ago, but horror pops usually they do not last long by me. Which three are you seeing? I feel your pain as I wanted a number of Ghostface Pops. I was able to get them for about $13 each shipped, but those days are long gone now.

LJN "Macho Man" Randy Savage and Hulk Hogan. I feel trying to get those MOC might be a bit of a task... I feel you there. I was lucky enough to locate 2 MOC LJN Savages, lucky enough being that hes an all time favorite of mine. Had to be about 7 years ago- I found one for a great price on eBay, and grabbed it. Three weeks later, I found one on craigslist, about 25 miles away. The Craigslist seller only wanted $10! Needless to say, one of the easiest figure purchases I've ever made.

I'm definitely going to be needing the Joker Batman. Praying its a shared exclusive. Beyond that, I may grab each of the other Batman related POPs.

Cant wait to see the Nickelodeon Pops show up by me. Stumbled upon, and grabbed my second Chase POP in the wild, a Star-Lord earlier today.

Is there a site where I can order/pre-order the newest set of Batman '66 POPs and get the Chase Riddler with it as well? I really dont want to buy it from the secondary market and have to pay an arm and a leg for it. I would say to go through Clarktoys.com. Full set including the Riddler chase for $89.99

Preordered my set of Rugrats with the Chases from Clarktoys, able to use the 10% code too, which is nice. Easier than searching every store every morning. Ill test my luck finding the Ahh! Real Monsters, and CatDog pops.
