Yes, it's very annoying. Unless there's a new release announced (which is rarely the case), I always avoid going at opening, because professional resellers are always the first to enter to pick up chases (and anything new). So it's a total waste of time.

There's a guy that lives down there that's in my local FB group. Says he'll help people out ... then he wants to charge triple the price PLUS shipping. LOL. I don't need that kind of help ...

LOL. Indeed... Yes it's always the same 5 guys that are there everyday at 7am. That's why it's totally unnecessary to go at opening as they take everything (and proudly show it on ig). I'm a fan, not a reseller, so waiting 6hours in line everyday, no thank you!

I’ve heard they get there earlier than 6. The problem is I’ve heard of really good restocks and I don’t know when they’ll be there. Would love some soda restocks too.

Got mine!!! I am liking them adding a soda to a big drop with POPs. Makes it feel kinda easier

Apparently at 5am this morning, and they were fighting over keeping line for people... They even broadcast their drama on instagram. LOL
Wednesdays are the worse! Never go on wednesday as it's just Resellers shopping day, even worse than other days.

Freddy Soda collection so far. Hoping to find the NYCC common for a fair price soon!!!
Spoiler: show

Missing the NYCC common is a nice problem to have (as opposed to the chase)!

Are they still handing out the Freddy Soda bags?

I'm not sure. Eva actually sent it too me a few weeks ago out of the kindness of her heart

I'm not sure I know Eva ... but I'd be happy to send her my address :roflmao:

Got lucky with chases recently! From the only nycc soda I was able to get from Funko shop.

I love the glitter cape she's wearing (can't see it here) but it's not solid and sort of bendable. Although she can't stand up, always tilt on one side. Someone else with the same issue?

Congrats on chase!!!! I got mine yesterday and was a common (which I wanted more than chase) and she stands perfectly fine on my desk

Yeah that is tricky since the glitter. I would say boil the feet but it would remove glitter. Maybe hot hair dryer?

I had a good laugh today when I looked at my order recap and realized it was for "Woody & Beaver" lol

Congrats on the chase!! One of my 2 She-Ras won't stand unassisted. I'm hesitant to mess with her too much, since I hope to trade her for another chase at some point, but she does seem to be pretty mold-able, so I'm hoping it's an easy enough issue to fix. But you're definitely not alone in her not standing up straight!

Ah good to know, it's a common issue then. They will soon come up with stands for sodas!

Congrats and wishing you the best of luck on pulling the chase. I tried and had no luck on the funko shop (got the 404 page not found) and then the sold out , but hey you can't win them all.

Glory days of having your own store are over. Every day is hassle to get in line now :roflmao:

How do people get these months in advance? There are a couple on eBay and Mercari already.

Spoiler: show

I know Funko HQ had them a week ago, I saw some people open them on instagram. Also Funko's website had them available for a bit. Same with Oogie Boogie soda who is also from same wave

Postby **Gothamite** » Fri Oct 23, 2020 1:52 pm

Ah, okay. Fortunately, I'm not digging the chase version, so I'll just wait until the regular is widely available.

I often wonder the same thing too! does the description say in hand though?

According to Zack, they were sold at Funko HQ and Funko's website briefly. So yes, the sellers do actually have them in-hand. I prefer the reg over the chase, though, so I'm not in a rush just yet.

Also at Funko Hollywood today. With Jean LaFoote, Michaelangelo, Oogie Boogie and Joker DC (as far as new ones dropping)

I'm surprised they haven't already! Though most of the sodas I've bought have stood just fine - she's my first wobbly one! I tell myself it's not her fault - it's the heels she's stuck in! lol

They were available today at Funko Hollywood. I shouldn't have, but bought one because it was THERE, and so was I! They had The 2 KISS sodas, Pennywise, Batgirl, Oogie Boogie, Jean LaFoote and Michelangelo today. Glad I resisted and just bought the one!

Bought 3, and.... ZERO chase today! Better luck next time.

I had the same luck this weekend - 0 for 3! Batgirl from Hollywood, and Leo and Shredder from EE finally! While it would've been cool for either of my EE orders to be chases, I think I'm okay with it - the common Shredder is SO COOL looking! And I'd only know for Leo if he glowed, so I'm content. I will say - the TMNT sodas? SOLID. It seemed like they were the biggest sodas I've pulled out of the Soda cans so far. Really enjoying them though, so glad I purchased!
