SDCC 2016 Dorbz Discussion!

Postby **mustangkelly17** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 3:22 pm

Just ordered Stan Lee from FPI. Don't want to take a chance that he doesn't show up in stores near me.

Alice 2 set coming from FP. Stupid website kept going white on me and I missed Chefpool again.

I was able to get the batman 3 pack cause the guy in front of me realized that was all i wanted and gave it to me. Thank you to this gentleman. No go on the xmen one cause they were reserved. I also picked up the false god superman one. It looks amazing.

Got my Batman Returns 3-pack at the second GameStop I tried this morning. Very happy with it. Easily my favorite in the Dorbz line. (Each of my GameStops only received one 3-pack.)

Anyone know if Stan Lee Dorbz will be on Popcultcha tonight?

I've asked both Alex (xmaldigolax) and Huse (SnackDaddy) to keep an eye out for the Chef Deadpool Dorbz for me...
Scored all the other pieces I needed this morning online, the Chef is the only limited-number piece I need.

So uh... if that doesn't pan out... I hope someone around here likes me enough to not charge an arm and a leg: I refuse to reward an eBayer's efforts lol

May the Funko Gods bless all of you with an easy path towards your coveted convention pieces... now please pray for me :-/

So I looked at my receipt and the Xmen 3 pack was $25 and the Batman 3 pack was $35. Was that a mess up or what?

Nope. Found that odd myself. Probably some licensing thing.

There is one GS in town that has the Stan Lee Dorbz. I put in to have one held on the website. Anyone now how long GS will hold an item? I can't get there until after work.

If you paid for it online then I assume they would hold it for quite a while. I had a Deadpool Dorbz sit at GameStop for like 2 weeks waiting for me to pick it up. However if you didn't pay online I can assume 24 hours?

Thanks! I just got the confirm email and it said 2 days. We'll see if it's still there when I get to the store. If it is, great luck. If not, I'm not going to be too upset, it was probably a long shot anyway. I didn't pre-pay for it, they are just holding it.

Does anyone know if the regular (Non-custom USO) 18' Capt America will be sold in stores/online? Or is it a convention only piece? Love looking at the customs on ebay, but really just interested in purchasing the normal run look.

They said it was only for the pop up shop. If they have any left over, they might show up online somewhere.

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Fri Jul 22, 2016 2:56 pm

Got my X-men set. Iceman is awesome! I was on the fence about the Batman set but got it when I saw it. Very impressive in person.

Just put a Stan Lee on hold. I was just at GameStop a few hours ago and they didn't have him. UPS must have dropped by after I left.

Postby **allhermight** » Fri Jul 22, 2016 3:05 pm

The X-Men set is so fantastic. I can't tell if people just weren't buying them, or if they just had a boatload of them, but the three GS I have been to much later in the day yesterday and one today, both had sets left.

I also can't wait to go pick up my Stan Lee later today. I'll cancel my GS pre-order and save $4.99 on shipping too.

Haha.... yeah probably ebay for quadruple the price. Oh well... thanks!

Actually it'll probably be the Funko shop if there's leftovers. Keep your eyes open.

Anyone know how much these retail for out at the Funko pop up shop?

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Fri Jul 22, 2016 4:18 pm

Has Funko said if the multi pack items will be available separately in the future?

I would like to have Fix-it Felix, Jr.

Postby **Jezter** » Fri Jul 22, 2016 5:52 pm

GameStops all over my area got Stan and Strange in today. Very happy with both, Stan's little mustache though takes the cake in this case, haha!

Postby **CyberGhostface** » Fri Jul 22, 2016 6:25 pm

What are your experiences with the Vanellope figure? The Hot Topic I went to several had broken exhaust pipes.

Would love to see this. Maybe a wave with singles of Ralph, Vanelope, Felix and King Candy.

Antman and She Hulk year one dorbz are making the round.

My HT got three of them, one of which had a broken exhaust pipe. I passed on her on day 1, but last night I started to feel regret for not getting her, so on day 2 I decided to return to HT in hopes of still finding her, and luckily none had sold yet, so I got to still pick out the best of the two not broken ones. I originally passed because of the ridiculous $30 price tag, but Vanellope and her kart are just too amazing to pass on. I didn't like Dorbz for a long time, but they are slowly starting to grow on me. She's only my 3rd ever Dorb. My other two are Gamora and Iron Man Unmasked. I've been very critical of them in the past, probably unfairly, but Funko is starting to up their game on these things. The Vanellope kart just might be the best thing Funko has ever sculpted. It's a work of art.

Dorbz are very hard to collect around here, because barely anyone in my area buys them, so stores almost never order them. Heck, the GSs here have trouble selling them for 97¢. SDCC is probably only one of a few times in the year that I can see some new ones on store shelves.

There's a fundays dorbz of retro freddy I couldn't get tonight. If someone has one shoot me a message please.

Postby **KMFH11** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 3:49 am

I did manage to get all the wreck it ralph dorbz though. They are so cool!!!

Postby **emk194** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 7:18 am

Excited that I got the Stan Lee and Chef Deadpool Dorbz off PC. Wanted the Chefpool really bad.

Dumb question, but is that the same Stan Lee that GS/EB got?

How'd you do altogether? Were you able to get everything you wanted for the most part?

Yep, not bad at all. Superman, Doctor Strange, Stan Lee and the X-Men Dorbz, plus Pajama Jack for the wife.
TRU didn't have Jen and the Landstrider for my wife and I'm on a list for a possible sparkly Murloc, but otherwise my list was small and not impossible to get, thankfully. You?

Postby **absyrd** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 11:45 am

Went to 2 Gamestops today just because they were on my way doing errands. Both still had 1x X-Men and 2x Stan Lee. I ordered these online already, but it was nice to see what is coming in person. That X-Men 3 pack is dooooooooooope.

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 12:40 pm

Just picked up my Stan Dorbz. My GameStop only got two.

Postby **TanyaTate** » Sat Jul 23, 2016 11:10 pm

So happy with all the SDCC dorbz. They look so awesome. Wasn't planning on getting Stan Lee and Deadpool, but at the last second I added them to my order at the Funko booth.

This would be fantastic as I don't want to take the Dorbz Ride Vanellope out of her box.

I think I had a total of 15 on my wish list, and walked away with 13. Pretty awesome for not having to go to the con, although I'll be there one of these days. I'm going to have to buy the Blizzard exclusives from last year and this year pretty soon before I start to cry. Haha. Pretty bummed about missing out on Indiana Jones, but I will survive. He's already got some crazy prices on eBay.

Was an awesome year for SDCC! Now to prepare for NYCC. I really hope everyone had a good time and got everything they really wanted. Now to eagerly await by the mailbox.

Postby **Snapz** » Sun Jul 24, 2016 3:03 pm

I picked up the xmen and stan lee dorbz today! Xmen was on a first come, first serve basis at one gamestop and the reservation on stan lee expired at another gamestop opening it up for purchase. One of the gamestop employees told me they were special items and not allowed to be reserved and that i can complain to corporate. What a fun week!

Postby **GameOfWhooves** » Sun Jul 24, 2016 9:55 pm

I got the Stan Lee Dorbz today. Now all I need to do is find the Wreck it Ralph 3 pack. It is my most wanted SDCC item besides Vanellope and have struck out on FPI, PC, Gemini, and Toy Wars. Hoping Fugitive has them available, if not I guess eBay.

Postby **emk194** » Sun Jul 24, 2016 10:16 pm

Did the Freddy Dorbz XL ever show up on Gemini? Just wondering.

Postby **Battastic** » Mon Jul 25, 2016 6:34 am

So my order from GS came Friday. The Batman Returns set were all the Dorbz I wanted. They packed the box with so many air pillows that the box dented in on the front and back (crease lines across the box). I figures it was too late to hit the stores as most only had one.
Lucked up Saturday and found one in perfect condition and no price sticker on the window lol
