I'm trying to think of which Dorbz sets you are going after - I'm just going to guess all of them! :SW7:

Good luck to everybody and hopefully we are all able to score what we want/need!

IF I really do decide to buy Dorbz it will probably just be the X-Men and Stan. It's tough though because I'm a GOT freak and Wreck It Ralph is one of my favorite Disney movies.

I'd tell you to get the GoT ones, but then you'd have to go buy wave 1 and I have a feeling there will be many other waves in the future lol

If I buy the X-Men I'll have to get serious about rounding up the Marvel Dorbz anyway so same principle.

Interesting price difference.

Postby **CaseyJones14** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 8:53 am

Wow the Batman set is $35? What the heck...

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 8:57 am

Comes out to about $11.67 each, but why? Why is there a price difference at all, unless they're assuming the Batman set will be in higher demand? If that's the case, they probably aren't wrong. Some Batman fanatics will pay anything. LOL! I'm not one of those people.

Postby **CaseyJones14** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 9:02 am

I was expecting the Alice 4-pack to be $35 and maybe the rarer 3-packs would be $30, but yikes! Oh well I'll still buy it

Postby **absyrd** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 9:30 am

Iceman looks soooooooo good. Want it even more now. Knowing GS only got one, hopes dying.

Postby **Jezter** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 9:34 am

Oh boy, I guess I'll be driving to multiple GameStops in hopes of scoring X-Men and Stan...I feel like they will be long gone before I get to the next one though... :/

What's terrible is that I think Stan will be taken by employees before the store even opens. :mad:

Granted, that's a perk of being there first, really really first.

I'm really, really hoping that I can order from GS (and HT, B&N, etc.) online because the idea of standing in line, rushing from one store to another, etc. gives me serious anxiety. I honestly think that if i can't get them online and they aren't available later in the day when I pep talk myself into going to the store, that I am just going to have to pass, as much as I want them.

I was planning on rushing to stores. I'm thinking now that the possible 1 per store is just not going to be available considering I've been told by 2 local gamestops they "never get chases or rare pops". Going to probably camp the computer like you.

I have horribly luck ordering stuff online, so I'll be doing the store run. I just have to decide what store to start with. I have 5 Game Stops within a 30 minute drive, but I guess it's safe to assume after the first store the rest of them will probably be sold out, but alas, I may still do the drive if I have to anyway.

HAHAHA, that kind of helps...a little. You are probably right though. I kind of put Stan up a little higher than everything else, so I assume he'll be the hardest one to get out of my list. It's worth a try though and I'll be driving to a few different stores...hopefully one will be there, and in good shape. :freddy2:

Setting up. I spy the Alice2 set that I want/need. <3

Thanks Jess! This only adds to the excitement and anticipation. :bounce:

This looks like the best place to be on Earth right now.

Was REALLY hoping I'd be able to get the Chef Deadpool Dorbz from a retailer, but looks like it's the eBay route for me (unless PC magically gets it). I also highly doubt EB Games will have the Stan Lee Dorbz tomorrow, but worth a try.

Postby **Jezter** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 7:05 pm

Went to my closest Game Stop on the way home and he claimed to only have the X-Men Dorbz and a couple Star Wars. He said he could hold the dorbz and would put my name on them, but he seemed a little...timid about it, so I'm not sure I trust him. I may still go to one at the mall first and see how that goes, especially if my closest one doesn't have anything else.

Postby **allhermight** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 7:32 pm

I called three local GameStops just a few minutes ago. One told me that they had some of them already and the other two told me that they were expecting to receive them tomorrow, but that they didn't know what/when. I didn't get vibes that they were being dishonest or withholding information.

I also asked the last two that I called if they expected a lot of people to be coming in first thing in the morning. One (the one who said that they did have them) told me that if I was waiting outside at 9:55am, I'd probably be the only person waiting. The other (that said they were expecting them sometime tomorrow) told me that she didn't think that "the scalpers would buy them out at all the stores" in the area.

So I feel better with my chances, for sure, but still would love to just order them online. However, the feeling of walking away with that treasure in your hand is a really gnarly feeling!

Postby **saban** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 10:34 pm

Just went to two Game Stops in the area and neither of them had the Stan Lee Dorbz. It's due to arrive tomorrow but they don't know when. For the multi-packs they only have one or two of each so unless you're the first in line, you might not get what you want.

Seriously wish they had all their stock already. Really want the Stan Lee Dorbz and would hate to miss it due to my being at work when the shipment comes in....

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 1:19 am

Stan Lee Dorbz is online as a preorder. Search: SDCC exclusive.

X men set is amazing! Ice man is clear, love it!

Postby **Snapz** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 1:44 am

I checked online and it shows every Gamestop within 10 miles have the xmen and batman set in stock. Luckily four of them are within 3 miles. It looks like I will be late to work.

Nice! all gamestops around me have low stock except for milpitas. I ordered online just to be safe.

Managed to order the X-Men, Batman, and Stan Lee Dorbz on GameStop.com. Kinda odd that the Batman pack was $10 more than the X-Men pack, but whatever...

Probably something in the licensing legal mumbo-jumbo I'd guess.

Got my Stan Lee and Batman 3 pack dorbz from Game Stop online! $\:D/$

Postby **groundhog7s** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 11:47 am

Had to order the X set online. Even though it showed in stock at several places, none had it. Now I wish I'd ordered it earlier when Stan was available too.

Postby **mustangkelly17** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 12:01 pm

Not to be that person, but I was standing outside a GS an hour before they opened. I seen thru the window multiple of each of the Dorbz 3 packs, when the doors opened magically there were none. They claimed to have put them on hold for customers that did pick up in store. But when I checked online the option to pick up in store wasn't even there. The second GS I went to had entire sealed cases in the drawers on hold and could not be sold. I stand there for an hour am the first person in line and can not get anything of what I was looking for.

Also very sad that stores did not receive Stan Lee Dorbz or the doctor strange pop. Or maybe they did and they are "on hold"

Postby **Valde** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 1:30 pm

My GameStop got in 2 Batman 3 packs and 1 Marvel 3 pack, luckily I was first in line. Zero Stan Lees has appeared in Vegas yet.

Postby **swind15** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 2:12 pm

Got my Batman and X-Men 3-packs today!!! They're so awesome. No Stan Lee dorbz here in NYC either. Glad I ordered him off the website last night.

Postby **Fawny** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 2:25 pm

Well poo. I think I waited too long. The Stan Lee Dorbz isn't available online anymore. Not even for pre-order. :crybaby:

Postby **jinxykat** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 2:53 pm

Ordered Stan and x-men online, picked up bat man and ordered deadpool and flash gordon from FP

Postby **Jezter** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 3:04 pm

Picked up the X-Men and as with most of you, no Stan Lee in 6 different stores. I'll be calling all 6 of them again tomorrow, because there was no Doctor Stange Pop either. Ugh.

Who is online
