Is there any chance the Bellas set will end up on WWEShop? eBay is not an option with how scalpers are working their magic on there. I see people are getting them at live events but sadly that does me no good either in my area. Damn you Funko! Of all sets to make difficult to get! This. Exactly this. Especially, that last part. Funko is going the same route that Diamond Select Toys went with their Star Trek and Buffy lines. Certain figures became next to impossible to find because DST farmed them out as exclusives. After a while, both lines petered-out. If you can't get a complete collection without spending yourself into the poor house, then what's the point in collecting? It was bad enough trying to track down a pink Punk and an NWO Hogan. No way I am paying $100+ for the Bellas 2-pack. If they put them in the main line with different colors / packaging, I will sincerely consider putting my entire collection on eBay and selling them for pennies. Come on, WWE, lets see them on your site.

So tonight has been a lovely ing night for me. I was moving some posters around to make wall space for a pending arrival.. The chair I was standing on tipped and I fell ass over tea kettle, taking a big bump from the chair, destroying the poster I was trying to hang, and knocking my TV off it's stand. A bunch of DVD cases got broken but luckily my 4 month old TV didn't. So I decided I'd open 2 Pops and just move them. Decided on Tony Montana and Dancing Groot, since Tony Montana's box is already messed up.. Opened Groot first. and I find this. It came out of the box this way. What the is this? I put it back in the box and it looks okay, but now I'm pissed knowing I have a broken toy that's completely worthless for anything outside of it's current state on my shelf. I can never resell, trade, or even open it..

Come on, WWE, lets see them on your site. Preach it! I've been collecting Pops for awhile now and with the wrestling line expanding I thought to myself how cool it would be if they made a Bellas pack. Do they? Yes! Hooray! Do they make them almost impossible to get? Of course. F*ck.

I can never resell, trade, or even open it.. Just had the same thing happen to my The Collector pop that I just picked up. I'm hoping that I can return, but not sure if I'll be able to. You'd think they'd hold the bobble heads in there with something a bit stronger than glue.... I really wish that they would all be non-bobble head figures like any of their series that aren't Marvel or Star Wars. I also picked up Nebula this weekend, luckily no issues with her.

Got my Collectors Corps box yesterday and I really love it! I was pleased with every single item, which I can't say about my previous subscription boxes. I cancelled every box subscription I have and am just sticking with Marvel from now on. The Hulkbuster is so so so so so awesome! I also have Oberyn coming in tomorrow to add to The Mountain on my shelf. Also, I am frustrated with bobblehead pops. Crooked heads and now from what I'm seeing disconnected heads are a problem. My Hulkbuster had a bit of a crooked head. Luckily I was able to bend the spring a bit to fix it. I tried that on my Yondu POP and I threw him out because he broke

Not it's permanent home on my shelf, but I had to snap a quick picture to show off my new buy.

Picked up these exclusives from toy conventions at Bangkok yesterday. The Glow-in-the-dark Hanuman was the Funko Con Exclusive for the Bangkok Comic Con Show 2015 and the Tossakan (or Ravanna in Hindu Mythology) was the exclusive for the Thailand Toy Expo 2015. I also picked up the Tokyo Toy Expo Exclusive Hikari Sofubi 'Sunrise' Batman Figure which really looks stunning in person. Cheers!!!

My Collector's Corp box arrived in the mall a few days ago at my house. Since I'm at school for another week I won't see the stuff in person until then. Also, I was able to repair my The Collector pop using some Gorilla Glue that I purchased. Just poured a layer of glue at the place where the dried glue is at the top of the spring and carefully put it back in place. I can even grab it by the head and it stays stuck in place. Should be a fix to your Dancing Groot as well Prophet of Ash if you feel like giving it a go.

Check your Barnes and Nobles. Disney POPs are on clearance for $2. I got Pumbaa, and had a nice conversation with the guy who was at the check out about them. He didn't even know they were on clearance because they weren't marked.
Also bought Saul Goodman and finally got Slimer.

They said on twitter that they're not revealing anything from the box and I don't think there's any antman pop vinyls coming out I imagine it will be Yellowjacket, which based off of the pictures I've seen of the character online and in trailers I would be perfectly content with that. Other option would be Evangeline Lily's character in the movie, which I believe is The Wasp if I remember correctly.

I was thinking it could possibly be an unmasked variant. I think that would be cool to see
