Well crumbs, I pretty much need all the Groots, since baby groot is the cutest thing I've seen in forever. UGH, my poor budget!

Looks like a good line overall. There's fewer exclusives than I expected. My only need is Gamora, but I will also probably buy the common Star-Lord, Mantis, and the GS exclusive Rocket. I can't stand midair action poses, so the common Rocket is an easy pass. I will also buy the chase Star-Lord if I can find one, but I would be shocked if I did. I've never found a chase before. I might also consider Drax and Nebula, but the likelihood I get them is low. I'm not sure why, but I've never had any interest in owning a Groot Pop.

I'm shocked there's no Yondu (yet), but I'm sure he'll come later. Doesn't really matter to me, since I wouldn't buy him anyway.

Not sure I agree that all chases are lazy, I mean some like the Fizzgig or the ID4 Alien are completely different molds. Plus some are cast in glow vinyl and others are painted in metallics. None of those things are within the customizing capabilities of most collectors. But a head swap on bobble-heads, well anyone older than 4 could do that with no problem lol I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it, but I do agree with Knighthammer that as far as chases go it's definitely a, ummmm, "low-effort" one ;-)

Preordered last night at toy wars. Glad I have these taken care of. They had the chase up for order as well, but I'll take my chances at retail.

I think I want walmart groot the most. That expression just cracks me up every time I see it!

Since this'll be my first time with a line that has a chase, any tips? Any stores more likely to have them / be easier to find than others? Thanks in advance for any advice!

I think it's a badge to signify Guardians (membership?) If you search Guardians symbol or pin, it gives up pictures of pins that were made, and the description says "Guardians emblem"


Nope, it's actually a Ravagers patch.

Anyone have any advice on ordering from entertainmentearth? They have the star-lord pop up for pre-order, showing the star-lord pop OR the chase version. Can you order case quantities from them? Would that help increase the odds of getting the chase or not make a difference. Just looking for any advice before i try my luck and pre-order the star lord pop.

Well all I can say about EE is they ship really well, and have good customer service

About ordering case quantities you could always just email them to get the best answer, and I guess getting more would increase the odds yes :-k

There is a Yondu, he was part of wave 2.

Cool, maybe his planet version could be in a sub-box, at least a 6" representation of him.

He is 205 in the series, from the set that was revealed, the 207 and from the 209-212 are pops that are missing, maybe Yondu is the 207 and from 209-212 are wave 2. Can't wait to get these in my hands.

A nice Pop, but not one I'm interested in getting for now. I'm interested in seeing him in the movie. I really have no idea what to expect, outside of how he looks.
