BN.com cancelled my order for Tyrion that I placed yesterday afternoon. Pretty lame, but I'm happy that most people seem to be getting theirs.

I held one at my BN and walked into the store tonight to find 1 white walker, 1 Ned and 2 Daenerys. I left with my one Ned. I've been reading that the joints are hit or miss on these guys but *knocks on every piece of wood in home depot* Ned is good! Nice range of motion with everything except the elbows could've used a bit more, but he looks great and the detail on his outfit is perfect. I like that they included Ice with him as well as another sword for his scabbard. I like this line so far and I hope we get more versions of Ned and some of the other characters.

Let me know if you have any issues! I've been reading on different forums about people having bad figures, figures breaking out of the packaging etc etc.
Tyrion seems to be the hardest to find. I am hoping we see a few more versions of him

Why do my stores have to follow the rules  ? I have figures reserved at two different locations, except Ned and Tyrion, who I haven't tracked down. Both places said they couldn't be sold until Saturday. The breakage stories are disappointing. A lot of early buyers are concerned with the clear plastic pegs since they had so many issues with DC Direct figures. . |

I am hoping we see a few more versions of him A couple small issues. Jon. Fine Ned. Fine Whitewalker. Fine Daenny. Two left hands Hound. Right foot peg broke. Joint was fused due to paint. Sword frog fell off when I was putting the scabbard in it. Glue will fix it. I like them. Sculpted well. Look good. But paint apps are kinda meh , and the plastic seems brittle. So everyone be cautious when moving joints and posing. |

I think we need seperate threads for 6 inch and then one for reaction.

The face sculpts leave something to be desired, but it's certainly a good start. I do hope they keep getting better with future lines (can't wait for the mystery line to be announced) On the other hand, I love the ReAction figures and can't wait to own them. |

I was able to pick up The Hound and Jon Snow. The Hound needed a hot water soak to get his ankles and elbows to move.

The first B&N I went to today was completely sold out, the girl said someone came in last night and bought every figure.
She called the second B&N for me and had them reserve a set until I could pick them up after work. They put aside everyone but Tyrion, the girl said he wasn't in the case to begin with. By the time I got to the store, the only figures left were a Daeny with a clearly broken ankle, a Daeny with a one-winged dragon, and a Ned with baby vomit all over his tunic. I really hope they get their act together, as I would love to keep collecting the line, but at $20 each, that's some bad QC.

Since this thread has been taken over by the Game of Thrones....
Anyways the other Reaction lines have been released. I am excited. Now I do not like the movie Pulp Fiction...Never seen Buffy or Firefly....But man...I will be using Travolta's and Jackson's figures as mafia guys that Batman will take down. I love the look of these.

I can't wait to pick up figures from BTTF and The Goonies. Sloth and Chunk are musts for me. It's really cool to see these figures finally...any ideas of release dates?

Entertainment Earth has all the tentative release dates posted. BTTF is June and The Goonies are October. I would imagine that Funko will make an announcement on the hard dates either tomorrow or Monday at Toyfair (Not sure when they are doing their big panel). I have Snake and Mal pre ordered and they are scheduled to ship in April, so we will see how fast they get here I guess. I'm hoping after the first month or two that these will be readily available at Target and TRU so I don't have to fight the specialty shop crowd for them. |

Wow. The Buffy figures are a major let down. Way too cartoony. Faces way lacking in detail.
Do not even look like who they are supposed to look like. (See Buffy figure.) I understand
trying to be "retro", but they look like something a little kid would come up with.

I REALLY want Funko to try to get the Mad Max property for their Reaction line. I'm definitely going to pick some of these up. This is, perhaps, the only line I would keep moc.

If you were not alive when 1977 Star Wars was out then you will never understand these toys. With all the multi articulated toys of today no one could understand what Funko is doing. |

I wonder when spam or Entertainment Earth will have pre orders up for the Game of Thrones figures?
I really want these things. I am not going to buy the Legacy figures of Mr. Fox or Magic the Gathering. But Funko did say they were doing Legacy Firefly at some point, and I will buy those. I wish they would do Legacy Buffy and Legacy True Blood figures.
As far as reaction goes, they all look awesome to me. The only sets im not interested in are Goonies and Nightmare before Christmas. I also wont buy the Bill and Ted ReAction figures whenever they come out.
Funko mentioned having rights to Star Trek TOS, Terminator 2, Aliens 2, and Predator 2 for ReAction, so hopefully we will see figures for those in the future. I wish for the Predator ReAction they would have let out a Dutch series 1.
