Wall E?

Postby **tjbhab** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 4:25 pm

Any word on about how long it might be before we see him come out? Just wondering.

I have no idea...
but, I called my disney store and they didn't get series 4 yet.
they will in a few days and she also said they should be getting all of them.
so I plan on going in the morning and if I really see wall e pops, im going to buy all of them!

Why would you buy all of them?

Are you talking about the Serramonte Disney store? If so, I was there on Friday and they had all the series 4 except Wall E.

I need to go pick up the rest of series 4 that I don't have yet!

Yes this sucks!

Postby **jonness** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 8:29 pm

buy all of them because I want to share the goodness with you all and sale em for store price + shipping on ur expense.
im referring to the sf disney store. ilike to believe that there's a 5% chance of wall e. just being hopeful here.

Wall E is the new Zurg

Postby **JuicemanRJ** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 9:15 pm

Is zurg hard to find? I have a bunch at my Disney store...

Which will eventually show up just like Zurg did.

Postby **FunkoH** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 9:26 pm

My closest Disney stores have no wall e or any other series 4 for that matter. I've checked 3 stores! So just be happy you at least have some of them to keep you occupied lol

Postby **POP&lock** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 9:27 pm

OK.no worries then.Still can't wait,definitely my favorite

Postby **sophie_dee11** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 9:31 pm

Guys... He'll be in an abundance soon. He's delayed. Pan and Zurg were delayed and there were and still are plenty of them lol

. I learnt from my freak out over them to not panic haha. Wall E will be out for months and probably longer. There's no reason to believe he's going to be rare or anything. Boo only became rare because of the licensing problem which I don't think we have to worry about with Wall E. I'd say don't go out of your way looking for him. Just go back to normal shopping habits and check the store ocassionally haha.

Haha. I like to think I am :P my name means Wisdom!!! It must be true :P

Nah, just don't think anyone needs to panic. He'll show up with all his cuteness in due time.

Postby **jonness** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 10:00 pm

As an exclusive? I don't know, but I would like to think te regular release would be everywhere by then.

Lucky that I don't have to worry about Wall-E send I'm not going to get him. I never did like the movie so that's the reason why I'm not getting him or Eve.

I put off watching the movie until last week because I didn't like the previews. I finally watched it and not surprisingly didn't like it. I do think parts of it had some merit, but the fact that they spent so many years to make it only to end up with that end result made it even more disappointing. Plus the villain is one of the lamest ever. I do however think Eve is absolutely adorable in Pop! form. However everytime I look at Wall-e it makes me sad with that expression on his face. I know that he often had that expression on his face in the movie, but I wish they that they would have used a happier expression for him especially since Eve's is so happy.

...and in regards to the expression on the WALL-E Pop....that cute sad look just makes me want to take him home even more! I love anything WALL-E and this Pop is just the cutest!

Postby **hermioneweasley17** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 12:19 am

Wall-E does look so sad but he looks so so so adorable. I called the Disney Store in Raleigh, NC today and they had no word on Wall-E but picked up Eve and Sorcerer Mickey.

Dinobuzz, your gif in your sig is adorable.

Guys, really no conspiracy theory here...When we FINALLY obtained our Disney Consumer Products license, they asked us for a few concessions..

1. No selling any Monsters Inc stuff due to a Mattel issue...Meaning only the Disney Store supply would be what the final run would be in the USA...we had planned to sell them but it was pulled at 11th hour...we DO have some samples laying around so we can give those away..

2. Take the Toy Story POp and put bases on them and make them bobble..Again a Mattel issue..so we complied with this request as well.

Europe and Mexico will eventually get the Monsters Inc stuff, so some will probably make their way back to USA as supply and demand always works this way...

Thanks for the info Sophie....now, I wonder, how is it that SDCC was able to sell the 9' Sulley/Boo Combo when there's issues with Mattel? .....just curious.....

Postby **Kitzka** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 10:42 am

I'm speculating that it was allowed because it was limited in number and time that funko would not be selling to retailers.

Postby **DocRamon** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 5:20 pm

i assumed it was because sulley/boo was listed as a "disney store exclusive"

I once saw a programmable wall-e that was about 2 feet tall and had the stomach compartment. I tried to convince my fiancée that we could program him to go to the fridge and get us beer that he stores in the compartment. She said 500 dollars was too much. She's a party pooper
