Pretty pleased with this one.... That is nothing short of a steal. The 2 exclusive Stay Puft's have been at the top of my list for a while.

Perfect, I was hoping it is a shared exclusive. There are a few that I hope I can locate. Couldnt locate a single one I wanted that was shared from NYCC, but I found every one I was looking for from SDCC. Really hoping Gazoo is to somewhere like GameStop or Hot Topic so I can find it easily. I love the Flintstones, and the Jetsons, and I am really hoping on the Jetsons getting a POP lineup soon. So many upcoming ones I want! If they do do the Dorbz Astro and Elroy on the next update, I have a feeling Astro will sell really quickly. Luckily for me, I tend to keep my collection smallish and don't often want too much from various conventions. Unfortunately, the only one I want from ECCC is not a shared exclusive, so I'm gonna have to track me down that Superhero Kermit Pop! somehow. The Funko Shop had some NYCC exclusive this past fall, so I'm hoping he pops up on there at some point. I'd imagine The Jetsons getting a Pop! line is a strong possibility. Thought for sure The Flintstones was done with just Fred and Barney that came out many, many years ago then all of a sudden Pebbles and Bam Bam show up as a complete surprise. Funko has been going pretty strong with classic Hanna Barbara lines lately, so I'd imagine Jetsons Pop!s aren't too far off. Astro and Elroy Dorbz will definitely be hitting the Funko Shop at some point as both were mentioned in the description for the Rosie, Jane, and Judy pack. I'd guess they come as a two pack or possibly a three pack with Mr Spacely. Either way, they're must buys for me. I would love to see Jetsons soon. Was hoping Super Kermit was shared myself, but apparently not. Hoping Michigan J. Frog is shared, the proto of that looks awesome. I absolutely love what they have done with the line! They just keep doing cool things that have been surprising people such as myself. Beyond that, I believe their site said Mid-Feb, so I would assume sometime this week for HBK and Kane to start popping up.

Great to know. Went and looked on the site again. Though I only have a few Dorbz from LOC boxes, I grabbed the Muttley/Mean Machine Dorbz Ride. May go for the George Jetson one too, hoping to snag a deal on the Gazoo one after ECCC. Thanks! Got my eyes on the Jetsons Dorbz as well (Dorbz are my personal favorite Funko line). Haven't had the funds to buy them yet, but should be able to Wednesday, so I'm hoping the Astro and Elroy Dorbz are this week's item. Or Flintstones Dorbz. I'd be super stoked on either of those. FYI (in case you didn't know already), the The Great Gazoo ECCC Ride is a shared exclusive. Convention shared exclusives mean you can get those figures at various stores or websites during (and after if there's stock left) that particular convention. I believe Gazoo is being shared with Barnes & Noble, so you'd be able to find him in Barnes & Noble stores or possibly online during Emerald City Comic Con. Typically, exactly what items are shared with what stores/sites isn't announced until the week or the given convention, but if I remember correctly someone discovered a placeholder page for The Great Gazoo Dorbz Ridez on the B&N website, meaning it's a ECCC shared exclusive with them. Generally speaking, when it comes to convention exclusive Funko items, if it's not listed as a Limited Edition, it'll be a shared exclusive somewhere. Sometimes they have a more generic sticker on them; Like the ones being sold at ECCC will have a ECCC Exclusive sticker while the ones being sold at various stores or websites with have a more generic "Spring Convention Exclusive" sticker on them. Perfect, I was hoping it is a shared exclusive. There are a few that I hope I can locate.

Thanks a bunch, ordered a set. Thanks for the info on the shop exclusives! No problem my friend. Happy to help. BTW, the new Funko-Shop exclusives typically get released between 10:00am and 2:00pm (Eastern time zone) every Wednesday. Items can be anything in the Funko line (ie Pop!s, Dorbz, Hikari, Rides, Deluxe Vinyl, etc...) and sometimes can be quite limited and go very quickly. Occasionally they'll put something out on other days as well. Like this past holiday seasons they did twelve straight days with a different exclusive each day. Most of the time, it's a complete surprise as to what any given week's item(s) will be. Great to know. Went and looked on the site again. Though I only have a few Dorbz from LOC boxes, I grabbed the Muttley/Mean Machine Dorbz Ride. May go for the George Jetson one too, hoping to snag a deal on the Gazoo one after ECCC. Thanks!

Longshot, but worth a shot. If anybody is able to locate the exclusive Pebbles and Bam Bam POP!s that are being released soon (Emerald City, I believe), PM me. They're Funko Shop exclusives. Funko puts out a new exclusive item every Wednesday (sometimes other days as well). Pebbles and Bam Bam were this past Wednesdays release and can still be purchased on the website. Thanks a bunch, ordered a set. Thanks for the info on the shop exclusives!

Anyone have pics of tmnt or power rangers pops? Thanks If you want a really interesting one (in my opinion) to be your first, I suggest the FYE White Raphael TMNT Exclusive. One of my absolute favorite POPs!

Big fan of the show, been following since the first season. Murder House is by far my favorite season to this point, but I've only seen bits and pieces of a few of the others. Not a fan of Coven at all. Roanoke has been pretty good in my opinion, second to Murder House for me. Love the suspense and jump scares throughout the season.

I think I know what you're talking about there and I agree completely. I was very interested to see how it looked, but very surprised when I opened the case. The other items are pretty nice though I'm guessing the hat? I love the Funko hats. The C3P0 one I got in my Jabbas Palace box is awesome. For me, yes. I don't really wear hats, and when I do, it's a Red Sox hat, so I really have no use for it. It's a cool design though

Received my Legion of Collectors Funko box today, and was very satisfied. Did it for the one month due to the theme being Batman Villains. Do not want to ruin the surprise if any other members ordered and have not received the box yet. I definitely love the Funko products in it! I havent gotten mine yet but I did watch the spoilers. I like everything that's in it except 1 specific item. I wont say what because of spoilers, Im sure you can figure out what Im talking about, but every other box had a specific item and they've taken it out this time and replaced it with something else. It really looks like a cheap knock off too. I think I know what you're talking about there and I agree completely. I was very interested to see how it looked, but very surprised when I opened the case. The other items are pretty nice though

Just tried it out, but looks like they are completely sold out. Had requested one of each to be held at a couple of different stores, but each came back saying they are out of stock. Tried ordering via their site, but it said it could not fulfill my order. Thanks for the help though!

Nabbed the NYCC HawkGirl at Barnes and Noble tonight. Only other ones I may grab are: Rainbow Batman, Killing Joke and Suicide Squad Joker and maybe Deadpool, if I decide to head to FYE. Went to preorder Batman and Killing Joke Joker at GameStop, but they apparently sold out. Thankfully, I have 5 or 6 GameStops locally, so I will give them a shot. The FYE exclusives are online only. You can also use the "store availability" option for Batman and Joker on Gamestop.com to see if stores near you have them in stock instead of driving around or calling. Thanks for the info on FYE. I've used the inventory tracker in the past, didn't see either listed on their site today, may have looked too early

I believe I saw on their Twitter yesterday that some of them will be shared exclusives. Of course, they said it in a condescending sort of way "this is your daily reminder...", which is just disappointing. Whatever, they make some cool items.

Scored a Leatherface Bloody Chase the other day. Does not fit into my collection. If anybody is interested in buying, PM me. Figure to offer it up here before I go to eBay. Ahhh where did you get that!!? He looks sick. Definitely want one now! Found it at an odds and ends store when I was out of town last week. Thought the regular one was cool. Found 3 and as I was inspecting the boxes for which was the best, I found the chase, which I happily grabbed. Looks awesome in person!

lucky ass....Im still on the look out for 2 sets of each Trust me, it hasn't been easy. I just happened to luck out after checking a crap ton of Walmarts for the last week. 6 Walmarts, and not a single one by me. Sucks, but I figured it was easier to spend a few extra bucks on eBay and at least have one set. If I stumble across any, I will pick them up for extras.

While it annoys me as a collector that Funko would water down the market by putting each "Convention Exclusive" in different retail outlets, they did put out some cool ones. I've went around the past few days, and was able to locate every exclusive I have been looking for. Grabbed False God Superman, both Deadpool, Batman, Red Ecto 1 with Slimer, GameStop Walking Dead exclusive (not a fan of the show, cool exclusive), and even the red white and blue Snoopy. A few interesting things to point out.
In my area, which is a haven for dealers, there seem to be no limits on purchases, even when they list limits. At GameStop, I went to pick up a couple of False God Supermans, but was told one per. One of the other employees said that one person (one of the few prominent dealers in my area) went in and out of the store multiple times and was able to get a bunch of each exclusive. I had called two separate Barnes and Noble stores to see if they had Snoopy and Violet. One told me that somebody came in and bought all of the Snoopy and Violet ones when they opened in the morning (ironically, the same dealer), even though they claimed to have a hard 2 per limit. The other Barnes and Noble had Violet, which they placed on hold for me. When I asked about Snoopy, the employee said "We had them this morning, but they never made it to the floor", meaning an employee got them, or got them to a private dealer friend. I showed up to pick up Violet, and when I asked if there was a limit of 2 per, the employee said "No, get however many you want". I took a few of them for friends who were unable to get them at the other store, which worked very well. After running a few more errands, I headed back to Barnes and Noble to pick up a few of the Mystery Boxes which feature the GITD Killer Croc exclusive. Upon looking at the exclusive table one more time, I located one Snoopy.
Though the hunt has been pretty disheartening with all of the dealers in the area, I was happy to locate the ones I am looking for. Last one left is the Walgreens Green Goblin.
