Why is it so hard to find certain Funko shirts?

Postby thebigdog14 » Fri Feb 02, 2018 3:56 am

I have been searching for ages for that Funko Pop Deadpool riding a unicorn shirt and that Marvel shirt that has like a split between Iron Man and Captain America and says Civil War. Why are some T-shirts so hard to find?

I have also been looking for the Deadpool Unicorn shirt. I remember even seeing it at GameStop once but not in my size and never saw them again. I’m not sure if they were super limited or everyone just snagged them up. I see lots of pop shirts being worn in the wild, but not so much for this one.Image

I think that came out around SDCC 2016 right? The older boxed shirts didn’t seem to ever get a second run. I’m sure now that all the shirts are out of box we might see multiple runs. You might want to make a post in the Want to buy sub forum and see if anyone can keep an eye out for you.

I think there are just so many variations of shirts, that some of them are in short supply. To be honest i have never even seen that Deadpool design up until now.

I feel like I've seen this Deadpool one briefly awhile back. Maybe TRU?? Haven't seen it since.

I love anything on a unicorn. Especially Deadpool. Time to hunt that shirt down (and find it never).

That Deadpool unicorn one was exclusive to Gamestop - it went on clearance quite awhile ago because I picked mine up in late 2016 during a clearance sale. I think the Civil War one was exclusive to Toys R Us, I just finally found a few there on clearance when I was travelling around Christmas.

A lot of the older ones seemed to have smaller runs - I was never able to find either version of the Wonder Woman tees.

It seems like I'll see some cool ones go up but I hesitate and then look again and they are gone lol. I just need to be quicker on the trigger!

I was thinking it was year ago! Couldn't remember where I saw it, now that you mention it I remember seeing it at Gamestop years ago.

Yeah, shirt designs seem to come and go quick. There used to be a ton at my local hot topic now there are almost none, target has a bunch but its hit and miss.

Not limited edition, just short run. People were tracking them when it hit stores, so it sold out quickly as well.

I've only seen that shirt once and I believe it was at a gamestop. Only thing that stopped me from getting it was that it was a Medium...I'm a husky guy and that just would not be comfy at all lol

Maybe there should be a help post for shirts if someone wants to post under that section but yes deadpool shirt was GameStop and I believe star lord target but usually once they sell out it's hit or miss if they restock. Good luck !

The one I've been looking for since it came out. I was told by the stores they would carry it so I didn't order it off their website then it never showed up in the stores. The Babymetal Pop Tee.

The Civil War shirt was part of the MCC box that included the Iron Man v Captain America 2-pack.

There are quite a few shirts that i can't seem to come across at a retail store. But i find that they are not that much on ebay, for when you really can't find them.

I think some of the shirts never actually make it to retail - at least that I see. I've seen some of them at the Funko HQ store, but it's weird how they handle the shirts that aren't in a box. I wish they would go on Funko Shop.

Yes, I hesitated on the Pickle Rick shirt and regret it now. Have two other pop shirts and always get comments on them when I'm out and about asking about them.

There are so many shirts out there and there is no good way of knowing everything they have released. I remember when that Deadpool shirt came out I was going to buy it, but waited too long and have never seen it since. When I was at Funko HQ there were MANY that I never saw before and had to grab a few. I do wish there was a full catalog out there to find all of the releases and where they were so I can try and find them. If there is one out there, please share.

a catalog would be great. I hope they make one or put them online. there are many other characters i would like to get but cannot yet. I did get a Batgirl shirt from Hq that I really do love though!

When I made this comment I remembered how upset I was when I couldn't find it so I went on eBay and there was one in my size for retail. I'll have it by the end of the week \:D/ . I remember it was a Hot Topic exclusive (most of them were back then) because I was in there so much I ended up with a job a few months later lol

there was a shirt similar to this at HQ, I'll check next time I am there... but knowing how the stock rotates it might not be there, it is also possible it was a slightly different version.

If you see it in an XL, will you nab it and I’ll pay you cost+shipping?
