I'll be very surprised if there any of the GiTD variant will be left... there is a Random Selection Process in order to be able to get one or 2 or 3. I am hoping I will be able to snag at least one and if I do get one, trust me, I would love to share photos of it.

I believe, there is additional Haunted Mansion Pops! releasing sometime after the anniversary date and or during October, I can't recall what the Cast Member told me; but do know there is ex amount of the Glow variant and once its sold out, its sold out and strictly made for this event.

There'll be a regular edition of Madame Leota.. Disney is still figuring out for General Release for stores and or at Disneyland only...

At any rate, never start lining up at 3am, speaking from experience. :)

I am never one who needs a GITD Pop unless it calls for it...
but this Pop is probably one of the top 5 GITD Pops ever made and it is not even out yet, I have been riding this ride since i was 8 years old and Madame has always made me smile everytime I pass by her, she LITERALLY is always GITD, so this is a very important Pop in my eyes, like a childhood piece finally come to life

The feels, totally feel you 100%

I remember both encounters with the ride, stopped with her doing her spells and hearing everything without feeling rushed, possibly one of the coolest things ever, and so much detail going in that room.

Not so great, but interesting to see, is lights on in that room... would never see Madame the same way ever again. lol

Yheah i have been on there so many times that every so often the ride breaks down lol, sometimes i am stuck in the room with her while she cast her spells and talks for like 10 minutes (the best time to get stuck is during Christmas or Halloween, she says different things and she goes on a bit longer)

No problem!!! It really is the best time to go is during those times, the lines get crazier the darker it gets so if you do ever have a chance, Fast Pass the ride and don't wait like 90 minutes to ride it, get in there like around 4 or 5 before the rush and you will enjoy it alot more!!!

that's been the case for the last few releases, but I missed the Jolly Roger because I didn't get there at 3:00am, and with this one already being sold earlier, I bet it will be tough

Have they done what before? Had left over merch? I think this is the first time a funko pop was an event exclusive on a certain release day. All the others were at DTD and inside the parks

Can confirm: This is the first Event Disney piece, it would be nice if they did something good for the hardcore fans of Disney, and honestly this is a variant, pretty sure they clearly said that, but never said exactly how many is available... though they had sold over 2,500 or so tickets for the event thus far...

I can't wait to see this pop in person when I go to the event. I'm curious as to if they event will be a GiTD version and at D23 if a non-GiTD version would be released since the theme of the Expo is Haunted Mansion. If it is numbered, expect it to be 999.

Not necessarily Funko Pop but last D23 Expo they have left over Dorbz and they eventually went on sale at DS.com. But you are correct as this being the first Disney Park Event to have an exclusive Funko Pop.

I don’t think that ticket amount is correct. I read 999 tickets , though that has since been removed from their site. Also they’re still available for purchase - so not sold out.

Looking at the catalog of merchandise there is no edition size by Leota. I talked to several cast members and no one said that it’s limited to this event. If any merchandise are left over they will be sold at both Disneyland and WDW. In fact, I saw a merchandise preview event on IG which was held at Disney Springs and they featured the HM wishables, which will debut at this event. That means they too will be sold at WDW

Interesting... this event is primarily focused on 50th Anniversary of Haunted Mansion at Disneyland, Anaheim, California... not Walt Disney World since its barely reaching 36 years..

I know of some Cast Members for myself, and yes, it is a Limited Edition, no mention of how many, not an Open Edition (now glow variant) like the common that'll be releasing later in the year.

Yes, you are right, it did said 999 tickets to be sold, but it has sold over 2,000 tickets so far for the event (I was number 2,000 in queue virtual line yesterday), I even attempted with different devices, and I was average 500 people behind 2,000 (2,300-2,500 range). Only 1 ticket to be allowed per purchase..

I am sure there'll be some left, but not a lot left of this particular Pop! you'll be surprised how big the fan base is :)

Get in for $300, sell for $350 lol (for real though i hope that doesn't happen)


:roflmao:

For real!

this worries me, but the same time, happy to say I am going to the event.


It’s an awesome perk if you are already going to the event. Just not worth it for someone only interested in the POP! That Haunted Mansion anniversary night at the park will be a memorable experience for any hardcore Disney fan.

This Pop looks awesome! Love the detail on her, but at $300.....yikes!! And as far as I can tell, there's no guarantee you'll be able to buy one after you've already shelled out for entry to the party.

Ditto! I love when that extra layer goes into that pop! Design

I wonder if the box will be the traditional pop box or if they will be anything special about it. Kinda like the bao vinyl

I don’t think that ticket amount is correct. I read 999 tickets , though that has since been removed from their site. Also they’re still available for purchase - so not sold out.

Looking at the catalog of merchandise there is no edition size by Leota. I talked to several cast members and no one said that it’s limited to this event. If any merchandise are left over they will be sold at both Disneyland and WDW. In fact, I saw a merchandise preview event on IG which was held at Disney Springs and they featured the HM wishables, which will debut at this event. That means they too will be sold at WDW



Interesting... this event is primarily focused on 50th Anniversary of Haunted Mansion at Disneyland, Anaheim, California... not Walt Disney World since its barely reaching 36 years..

I know of some Cast Members for myself, and yes, it is a Limited Edition, no mention of how many, not an Open Edition (now glow variant) like the common that'll be releasing later in the year.

Yes, you are right, it did said 999 tickets to be sold, but it has sold over 2,000 tickets so far for the event (I was number 2,000 in queue virtual line yesterday), I even attempted with different devices, and I was average 500 people behind 2,000 (2,300-2,500 range). Only 1 ticket to be allowed per purchase..

I am sure there'll be some left, but not a lot left of this particular Pop! you'll be surprised how big the fan base is :)


Thank you very much for all of the info! I didn’t realize they had so many tickets! I’m glad it seems like everyone who wanted to go was able to purchase a ticket!

The fan base is big for sure but I wonder if resellers will be willing to spend 300 for a chance of getting this pop. That might turn people away leaving a chance for extras

There are several things flying around on this thread that are a little off....

The reason why this event is mid week is because it is occurring on the actual 50th anniversary of the Haunted Mansion. It’s not a weird power trip move by Disney...they are celebrating the anniversary with this event.

The reason it’s soooooo late at night is because there will still be massive demand for Galaxys Edge and they would never get away with closing the park at 6pm to host this private event. It’s obscenely late, but only because of the Star Wars demands.

The Leota Pop is listed as a Theme Park Exclusive, NOT an event OR Disneyland exclusive. I would bet that it will be sold at Walt Disney World and Disneyland AFTER this event. I think people are getting tripped up by the lottery aspect...SOME items are super limited edition which is why they have to create a merchandise lottery.

Lastly, this event is for those folks that LOVE The Haunted Mansion and will feature specialty entertainment that will not be part of the daily offerings. Madame Leota is appearing, characters from the mansion are appearing and there are exclusive photo backdrops as well...yes the event is pricey, but it’s a limited attendance ticket with unique offerings.

I keep seeing people talk about this in one of the Disneyland groups on fb. They said that you are picked randomly to buy the merchandise. Since most of the people going are hardcore Disney people, almost everyone will be picking this Pop up. I’m really hoping there’s leftovers that make it into the park. I really want this one.

Can confirm: This is the first Event Disney piece, it would be nice if they did something good for the hardcore fans of Disney, and honestly this is a variant, pretty sure they clearly said that, but never said exactly how many is available... though they had sold over 2,500 or so tickets for the event thus far...

Just because you were number 2000+ in the queue does not mean that is how many tickets were sold. Simply means there were that many people in line. They all didn't purchase tickets. There are 999 for each event day. Many people like myself went in line to see if tickets were still available or decided last min to not purchase the tickets.

Well, I took the plunge and bought a ticket. I’ve been asking for this Pop to be made for awhile. So excited! Hope I get picked to buy it.

Yes, that is also part of the reason (being so late) due to SW:GE taking place, you're 100% on that :D in the past it was from 9a till 10:30 or 11.. I forgot what exactly they did for their 40th Anniversary.

I did noticed the fact it states "Theme Park Exclusive" -- but I am just hearing from friends who are cast members, thats how I am getting my sources, some of the cast members are actually salary pay managers, not hourlies. :eek:

But anyways, enough of this debate. Only time will tell. [-o<

Whoever is going, I am definitely going to be there regardless-- not just because of the Pop itself :) Haunted Mansion has a special place in my goth heart, haha. lol

I remember both encounters with the ride, stopped with her doing her spells and hearing everything without feeling rushed, possibly one of the coolest things ever, and so much detail going in that room.

Not so great, but interesting to see, is lights on in that room... would never see Madame the same way ever again. lol


Yheah i have been on there so many times that every so often the ride breaks down lol, sometimes i am stuck in the room with her while she cast her spells and talks for like 10 minutes (the best time to get stuck is during Christmas or Halloween, she says different things and she goes on a bit longer)



#GoalsToBeStuckOnDuringNBC :roflmao:

That is rad to know though! Thanks for the tip!

You say this now but I got stuck on that ride for like 30 minutes in that room to the point where they just turned on all the lights

I just got recently stuck on HM in the Pepper’s Ghost scene and it was great......until about 15 minutes had gone by! I love HM, but man was I thankful when it started back up!
