NYCC 2016 Dorbz Discussion Thread

Postby **treswright** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 8:32 pm

TT just posted the NYCC exclusives to IG- Dorbz Ridez Count Chocula and Cereal Monster 3 pack and they are awesome!!! I'm uploading the pics to post.

EDIT- here's the pic. OH MAN I AM LOSING MY MIND over that ride, WOWWWWWWW!

Oh man. Of course Toy Tokyo gets two pieces I'd love to add to my collection. Definitely going to wait for Pop in a box Canada to eventually maybe carry them. Not paying TT's ridiculous prices.

I'm not much of a rides guy but the looks awesome! Now that three pack, ya I'm gonna need that.

Postby **opopssum** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 10:52 pm

Im not sure how much that 3 pack is going to run me, but im willing to pay :mir1:

so, what is this wristband rumor?

Postby **CAHRULL** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 11:15 pm

Those cereal monsters are everything I'd hoped for and more. Absolute top "must haves" from NYCC.

Postby **swind15** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 11:26 pm

So rumors are that all the dorbz are in the hardest places to find exclusives (not counting Walgreens). Box Lunch, FYE, and Toy Tokyo are terrible distributors and barely exist. Why Funko why?!

Funko doesn't approach retailers about doing exclusives, it's the other way around. This isn't a question of "why doesn't Funko sell the monster cereal Dorbz at my favorite local store so I can get them easier?" It's a question of either getting them through TT or they don't exist at all. And TT being a small company isn't going to order 100k units, they're going to keep the numbers manageable. So yeah, there's not going to be a huge supply of them but hopefully there will be enough to go around. I just hear a lot of people blaming Funko for not having broader distribution of things like this, but you have to keep in mind that they don't call them "exclusives" for nothing :-)

I love that Count Chocula ride! I would love to have that 3 pack and the ride, but I know these could be tough to get. I'm going to cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best.

I knew these were coming! SOOOOOO happy to see these actually made! The Monster Cereal Dorbz are AMAZING!!!! It looks like the Ridez Choc is Metallic too which is a cool touch! Still missing 2 Monsters (Fruit Bruit & Yummy Mummy), I hope they include them in the line up soon.

Postby **Arloe8** » Tue Sep 27, 2016 1:07 am

These are both must haves. I can see Freddy Cereal Monster Dorbz in the near future. I really hope we get a GITD monsters set as well.

The Monster Cereals set looks really great! Gonna need it for sure! :freddy2:

Postby **groundhog7s** » Tue Sep 27, 2016 6:19 am

I wouldn't be surprised if Fruit Brute and Yummy Mummy ended up being Funko Shop exclusives.

Postby **Jezter** » Tue Sep 27, 2016 7:50 am

Juggernaut and Storm...I needs them.

Storm looks awesome though...and I plan on getting the new Pop, so I need this Dorbz to go with it!!

Yeah I love that, I hope they give the other 4 monster cereal Ridez the same treatment!

As xmaldigolax said, Brian has already dropped a hint that these will happen:

I will tell you a little secret..we are doing all 5 monsters in their own cars for the best line of Dorbz Ridez ever!!!!!

Yep Yummy Mummy and Fruit Brute you get Ridez too!

If Brian said it you can pretty much take it to the bank, every hint he's dropped like this has eventually happened. I for one will be all over every single one of these :-)

Next Monster Ride will be a Halloween Party/Funko Shop share...you will LOVE! So just around the corner!

SWEET! I'm very excited to see it, and I will be at Fright Night so here's hoping $\:D/$ if Count Chocula is any indication then these rides are all going to be amazing and must-haves :-)

I need these!!!!! It is killing me that I probably will not be able to get them. Hopefully this means that Fruit Brute and Yummy Mummy will be Funko Shop exclusives and I may have a chance on those.

I like the color scheme of the fright night poster so I hope the ones given out there have a cool, color matching sticker.
Kinda thinking they will since stickers are what we all collect here lol

Postby **Arloe8** » Tue Sep 27, 2016 12:43 pm

Well we have one hint about Fright Night!!!! Between the cereal monsters and HB dorbz room will soon be scarce. Now to find the perfect shelf for them. Thanks Brian for the update!

I never really got into Pops. I bought a crap ton of them though.
When I first saw pictures of Dorbz I thought they looked like crap and was happy I was not going to have to spend money on them. Then I saw them in person. They have grown on me... Like a wart. Now I really enjoy them and am having to play catch up.

The first MCC box I ever got was the Civil War one that had the unmasked Iron Man Dorbz. Before that I had never paid attention to Dorbz, but I decided to give them a chance. Then I went to GameStop and they had a bunch of Dorbz for $1.97 so I picked them all up. Fast forward 5-6 months and I'm closing in on 150 Dorbz. It's a really fast growing wart lol
