Target Holliday Friday Release

[w00tw00t]

I saw a bunch on eBay where they are asking for $50 or more so get it now for $30.

Still live - 10 minutes since my last post.

selling at $50 isnt even worth it in my opinion. with the fees and shipping not sure what they plan to make $.

I agree.

Let's say they sell it for $49.99 + $5.00 shipping then eBay and PayPal take $7.39 in fees. After paying yourself back for the cost of the product plus tax, and paying eBay and PayPal, you're looking at making $15.81 in profit. At the end of the day, is it worth all the trouble for $15? Not really.

BTW, it's back to "Coming Soon" so I wonder if it sold out or it will be live again later today?

shipping something of this size will definitely cost more then $5. maybe $10 with insurance. But yes, gas and time will cut into that profit as well. but hey can't really blame flippers. like i've said before flippers help some collectors obtain pieces they can't get their hands on.

I'm thinking that next week's release may be Gloyd Orangeboar. Next week's item was supposed to be from RBtI. It would make sense too since it ties in with the film's release which is next week.

This one wasn't for me. But I have been checking the availability. It doesn't look like it's up for sale anymore. I wanted to see how long it was available to gauge for future releases. Although it may not correlate because the 10 inch pops don't seem to draw the resellers.

it was up for a while. i got it around the 20 minute mark after 6. I'm hoping they release a Raichu in 10"! grew up watching pokemon in the morning before heading to school. this has a big place in my heart, but if they plan to release all the pokemon it's going to surely hurt my wallet and space. =(

[LovesTheSnow76]

So happy I was able to get one! Hopefully next week will go as smoothly.

Yeah those 10 inch 30 dollar price tags add up fast! I'm glad I haven't seen many must have larger size pops for my collection.

That would definitely stick to the rumored list. I hope it does. I got my eye on those Pez!! Haha

yeah, i don't collect too many 10" pops, but any iconic characters i'll pick up. Just too much real estate. Funko keeps popping out more pops and just hard to keep up. Is $ an issue of course. Is space an issue of course. I think i'll get to a point where i'll have to be super selective.

[TJLAUTERBACH]

Got my son a Pikachu this morning for Christmas. Hope all the drops are this easy.

[KidMarvel]

Congrats to all Pokemon fans out there!

[SpastikGrl]

I didnt go for the Pokemon, but I did get their street date release home alone, Target Lady and Louis Winthorpe III this morning.

[theoneupper02]

Grabbed Pikachu and Target Lady...kind of salty I didn't get the 5% off and free shipping with Target Lady though...

[CaseyJones14]

I really hope every week isn't a new 10" Pop Looks like next week will be another one though.

[w00tw00t]

Grabbed Pikachu and Target Lady...kind of salty I didn't get the 5% off and free shipping with Target Lady though...

5% doesn't apply to that purchase with redcard? I remember back in the days when I use to shop at Target and I wore a red shirt. You would be surprised how many people think you work there and ask you questions haha.

[cheekylyssa]

Pass for me this week - that 10” pikachu is oddly terrifying. But I hope everyone who wanted him was able to score him!

[Kfresh]

Lifesize pikachu is awesome!!

[bakivali]

Glad this release was relatively easy.

[Boymom4]

I got the10" pikachu with no problem, so here's hoping the rest of the target drops go as smooth as this one

[Pop_A_Shot80]

I was able to pick one up a Pikachu an hour after they went on sale gonna make a great xmas present for my little collector who missed out on the first one that was released.

[MrSmileyFace]

Totally forgot the drop and overslept since I have Fridays off. I’m sure I’ll get the restock like they’ve done with the 10 inch Gladiator Hulk

[TiniTinyTony]

Yeah, it seems to be unavailable now, but hopefully they restock on or before the next release.

As for the next release, the clue we got was:
"This figure is packing some pumpkins, and it’s not because of his love of autumn."

The first thing that came to mind was Jack Skellington
My second thought was maybe the Green Goblin.

[Funkofan21]

I was able to grab a pikachu this morning. I hope you are right about the next one being jack skellington

[aphotic]

Yay got the huge Pikachu!

He definitely fits the description. My first thought was that it was Green Goblin, but Gloyd is a better fit, especially with the movie coming out next week.

It was up for an hour and 45 mins

That and there really wasn't any info on a target spiderman exclusive floating around

Sounds like you would take a loss if you sold for $50 on ebay after shipping and fees (unless you charge shipping separately). I shipped a Star Wars Darth Vader ride to a friend in CA and it was $14.

Does fit better, since his hat is a pumpkin and Green Goblin doesn't have a pumpkin-themed item on the Pop... but there was a FB2 rumored on the list and it opened today, but today's was the 10 inch Pikachu instead.

Yes, but Let's Go Pikachu also released today.

Very valid point. Also, the green goblin from the mile morales universe doesnt technically throw pumpkin bombs, he actually blows fire. It's unlikely as most of the into the spiderverse pops went exclusively to walgreens. Plus, the 10in goblin is a common

[keyese]

So happy I was able to get the Pikachu this morning! I hope he arrives safely.

[Niteowl_1]

Was able to get pikachu so awesome now I can display next to my regular one

yeah that's pretty brutal. shipping cost has definitely gone up. adding insurance also adds a few bucks on top of it.

oh wow. that's pretty long. How did you figure the time frame or did you sit and watch?

[FireEmblemZack]

Got it very easily! There are also going to be some changes to Target's return policy on POPs so be careful if you're buying like 20 to resell . Some lady on Instagram does that and she is going to get some bad news when she cant return them

I think that makes sense. They have a limited return window for their fashion collaboration items, which are similar (people buying up inventory, trying to resell, and returning if they can't get a good enough offer).

[AutumnsToyz]

Yeah I do hope they crack down on trying to return more than 1...it promotes flipping without consequences.

[ejcurtis115]

I got one! It was a nice easy transaction. Hoping the rest of them go the same;)
