Thank you! I keep checking him every day to make sure he still smells like I intended! LOL

If you don’t mind me asking, what did you do to make him scented? lol

Nice! It's a better problem to have than the opposite!

Seems like there's a lot of chases that show up at HQ and Hollywood.

They're definitely there, but my last 2 purchases of soda were all commons! Guess that means I'm due for my next round, right?

I think it is completely random to be honest. There is no way they can purposely slant the chases to their stores because nothing on the outside of the can indicates chase.

Agree...it's all luck. Every time I open a can, I say the Dirty Harry quote...Do you feel lucky, Punk? lol

Oh yes it has to be random, there's no way people can know if it's a chase or not! If they do, please tell me how!!

I got four cans yesterday from CLARKToys and struck gold! My soda luck has been awful, so this made my day. The Reverse Flash is one of the best chases in the entire line in my opinion so I'm so grateful to pull one. Now I guess I have to order another Flash.

on the bright side i tend to dislike most of the chases, but there are some coming up that i want way more than their common versions. so hopefully all my chase luck has been stored up and will explode this year.

Yeah, I'm in complete agreement with you on that

Also agreed! The best thing about the sodas, beyond the fabulous design, has been the pace these are coming at us. Just enough time in between waves to recover! And they're not overwhelming the house yet, either!

I'm so happy they made both 2017 Pennywise and 1990 Pennywise into Sodas! I love them so much and they're such a charming addition to my It collection. Although, anyone else think the 1990 one looks better? The 2017 one has too big of a nose in my opinion lol

Trade secret, patent pending! Heh :X

Fess up - you soaked Freddy in Root Beer to strip the original paint, right? And now the scent is there to stay? lol

Oh, I agree it's completely random. Just some days my luck is kinder to me than others! With Boo Berry, I bought 2 in store and my friend was right in line ahead of me, also bought 2. She ended up with 2 commons, and I ended up with 1 of each. We even were sharing a basket, so it could've gone either way!

Lately I've been turning the can away from me so I don't see the pog. It isn't working though, so I guess I need to adjust my opening habits again! lol

Oh yes it has to be random, there's no way people can know if it's a chase or not! If they do, please tell me how!!

I think we'd all want to know this secret! I do really appreciate that you can't know ahead of opening it, so everyone has an equal shot of getting those chases!

Melted root beer candy mixed with the paint?lol Whatever the secret, it's a really cool piece. I'm not just saying that because I love root beer either.

the true secret of the root beer scent is a tale too dark for such family friendly forums.

Absolutely! And generally the designs are amazing, and I'm honestly happy with common or chase, no matter which! There've only been a few that I absolutely needed the chase for, which I really appreciate - this way I don't feel like I'm throwing my money away for all my soda purchases!
