PSA: Most Umbrella Academy Pops are at Barnes and Noble and the 2 for $10 deal works on them. I’ve found all except the chases, Klaus, and Ben.

Oh that's a nice deal, sure makes it a easier to completing waves.

My wife and I binge watched season 2 this past weekend and I definitely need a wave for season 2!

Finally watched it, and it was sooooo good! So many pop options and variants to be made from the season. lol

I bought 8 Vanyas to get the chase and never did, so I finally broke down and bought it on eBay. I am still hunting for Number Five though.

Going to just buy that one straight out this time or try multiples again? lol

An army of number 5s doesnt sound like the worst display in the world!

Probably a good choice there, if I can I'll just order a chase in one of those pre orders that some places do.

Can't wait for a possible 3rd season!

Great second season.
Lots of ideas for variants

Wish I didn’t sleep on this for so long, only on ep 7 season 1.

Love it, went to purchase a chase and standard bundle, money went through, scored store points. Then 30 mins later got refunded, and the item became out of stock on the site..?

Did everyone have the same idea as me yesterday morn. Lol.

Same. Tried to buy bundle set of both the other day and sold out, Vanya standard and chase, Five standard and chase.

I don’t know what it is, but I’m obsessed with post/present apocalyptic world type games/movies.

It was Fallout 3 that got me into it, hence owning too many Fallout pops.

I’ve got all of them, except standard Ben with tentacles (non GITD). Well waiting on Five, Vanya and Claus too.

Buuuuut....My GF found out how much I’m addicted to the show, she’s after paying a bloody Ben for me for my birthday. Damn, she really raised the bar. Y’all ganna have to help me think of her birthday present.

Every single thing for cleaning the house/apartment, laundry, cooking for her birthday month, whatever she would normally do.

Kinda want that NYCC Young Ben but damn, expensive!

He's slowly coming down isn't he?

Postby **FFreddyFan** » Thu Oct 29, 2020 3:32 am

^^^ Haven’t heard of young standard Ben. The one I mentioned is the NYCC 2020 bloody Ben. Just after he mauls a few bank robbers in the first ep with his mad tentacles.

Far out, finished season 1 last night, epic. Love it.

Still sinking in, watched the first out of season 2. But was too hyped from the end of season 1. Kinda felt like I was starting another massive 10 ep build up, and like I said, needed season 1 stuck in my mind.

Poor ol Peabody, the dodgy psychopath. He had that coming.

I’m looking forward to meeting him, well done on the pick up, only 2000 pieces I think.

Thinking of getting rid of a grail to make space (and refill the bank account...)

Can't wait for next season!

Cheers. Good start, I do about 80% of basic house chores, epilepsy keeps me at home when I’m looking after the youngsters. disc located shoulder, resulting in broken shoulder after 3 months miss diagnosis, sent back to work. Mid 30s has made getting a job in a rural area hard atm. Had cash in hand job till COVID hit. Before all that I was a brewer for Bridge Road Brewers for over 5 years. Doubt anyone’s heard of em.

Anyway that a long story to explain that.

That's a tough situation and this year really doesn't make it any easier. The upside I look at is getting that extra time to spend with those close to you. I'm behind on umbrella academy, I should try to catch up.

^^^agreed

Just broke and bought chase Vanya (for an uncomfortable price :rolleyes:

) After reading the luck people are having getting her.

Don’t know how I’ll get 5 chase yet.

Looking forward to the next season. So many options to go longer and have so many pops.

Postby **FFreddyFan** » Sat Oct 31, 2020 2:39 am

Next set I hope to see Klaus in his 1963 Prophet robes. I love Klaus, he’s got the most heart out of all of them.

Just finished it, fantastic series so far, I liked season 1 more for some reason, but in season 2, fives actions drove me to buy his chase at silly prices, but hopefully mint condition.

I take back Klaus as my fav. Lol

Luckily I managed to get that chase at retail before the popularity of the show sky rocketed. He’s my favorite character, especially after season 2!

This could turn out to be the new GoT. The young Ben from NYCC is the new Headless Ned. With different decades and ability to go back in time, options for new pops could be endless.

Agreed. They could make another 8 seasons after what happens at the end of season 2.

The cliffhanger left us with more questions than answers, I thought they were tying threads together slowly in season 2, kinda got sad around episodes 8-9 thinking they could wrap this one up, but bang, episode 10 is historic. Five is a legend. Glad I now have the whole set on the way.

#RIPBen

Was anyone as obsessed as me, so they bought glow in the dark Ben, and standard Ben, even though they look the same in the day (apart from the stickers getting in the way of those deadly tentacles).

Might make this my OOB set for the standards.

They could pop town Five at an old age, in the apocalypse, drinking with his manikin.

Wish I had won the lottery and gotten Young Ben during NYCC!

I think the comic is supposed to be six different mini series but Gerard Way has only done three so far. Hopefully it’s not like Game of Thrones in one way at least and the show goes past the book (although Gerard Way has a better excuse for being so slow compared to George RR Martin - the dude is a famous rock star).

I love the Pops and hope for another wave. I still need chase Five and Young Ben (not happening for those two) but I also have never seen Cha Cha in a store.

Not a problem. The comic book series provided the barest sketch of a storyline - the writers at Netflix have developed a real story.

Need comic versions of these characters.

Season 3 cleared by Netflix!!
