Pop! Retired...Please read

[Sheckster]

That is too funny!

I hope Captain Hook doesn't get retired.I still wanna get him,Peter Pan,Donald Duck,and Winnie the Pooh yet,but I don't feel like paying $12.50 a piece for them.Plus shipping since I'm not ordering $75 or more,and plus tax yet.Does anyone know how much these are in the Disney Stores themsleves?

$12.50 + Tax, always best to get disney in the store if you can, if your order online very good chance your box isn't well taken care of, a lot of people on here cant stand how they ship and have had issues, oh and they put huge disney stickers on the box as well.

yeah, from personal experience it is always best to actually go to a Disney Store to pick things up. I haven't had a pop shipped to me, but I can confirm that they put shipping stickers on everything object. They are $12.50 in the store, but when the new series comes out they can be discounted as far down as $6.99. I went to a Disney Store outlet a few hours away from my house and picked up George Sandersen, Jessie, Lotso, Syndrome, Mr. Incredible, and Minnie Mouse for $6.99. Since then I've seen some of those guys in the clearance section of Disney Stores for the same price.

If you create an account and receive emails, they'll email different coupons and offers nearly every few days. They always offer something on sale at some point or another. In the past they have offered a Pop sale, which I assume was in anticipation for Series 3. At different times they'll offer free shipping for special days, like anniversaries or new film releases inside the company.

I did order from them online about a month ago or so.The boxes were fine and didn't have any stickers on them.But I only ordered 4 and couldn't get free shipping,but they did have a 25% off special going on.But I didn't have enough money at the time or I would have ordered the other 4 I wanted.Even with the 25% discount,it still came out to about $12 & something for each.If I could have got free shipping it wouldn't have been bad.The only problem for me going to a Disney Store is,they are about an hour away in two different directions.The same with Barnes & Noble.I would love to go to the stores and look around,but then I figure with how much I would be spending on gas,I could just order online for cheaper.The only Pops I got in store was The Avengers set at Target,my other 59 I got online.The downside to living in a small town..we get less stuff and the stores we do have are considered lower tier stores.It's like I said,we get the poopy end of the stick around here.HaHa!!!

Good thing I keep all the hard to find marvels in my collection.
For future trades if needed.
Gotta love having a few Lokis

Thanks Brian for clarifying. Any other way, I still love my POPs!

[damnvicious]

Been reading through older threads and saw this post. I am personally wondering if the sentiments expressed here are still valid given the appearance of some hard to find pops abroad.

[damnvicious]

Well, it could still be true. The ones popping up might have not been officially retired pops. Not sure if exclusives are also considered retired pops. Though I wonder if we will ever see SDCC Loki 16 or SDCC GITD Green Lantern or SDCC Shadow Trooper getting a re-release in Aus or UK.

This was a post from back in 2012. Sorry my comment brought this back up. Not really sure if the items stated here still apply.

Funko is one of the best companies I've ever dealt with as far as communication with the fans! Nothing wrong with having retired figures and as people have said, it makes the hunt so much more fun! I'm really happy because I managed to get Loki, Greedo, Han, Penguin and Riddler before they went to insane prices and now I feel that they're so much more special!

Also, I found a Penguin and Riddler at a store in the city for $15 each... if they're still there next time I go back I could pick them up for anyone if they're interested Kinda wish I just bought them today!

I would gladly like to take these off you or your friends hand! PM sent

[Jeggy]

Read the post dates as they will be of great service to you before you post.

[lovetheangels]

Maybe mods need to lock old posts as read only. Seems the whole date thing just flies by people.
