Where do you buy your dorbz?

Postby slim1977 » Mon Nov 07, 2016 8:39 pm

Just curious where people buy there dorbz. I prefer to shop at brick and mortar stores. But as of late,it is getting difficult to find them. My local gamestops no longer have them, the hot topic stores only have a few old ones, and my lcs clearanced them out because they were not selling. Any tips would be helpful, if it helps I'm in the socal area.

I would like to know this as well. Some NorCal game stops and Barnes and Noble have a decent selection. Other than that I rely on the board and eBay.

Gamestop, eBay, facebook, popcultcha, a local toy store and LoC are all places I've gotten Dorbz from. Most often though, I'd say Gamestop and eBay. Pretty much nothing exclusive gets released here so it's either a trip over the border or going online for the Funko Shop stuff.

Barnes & Noble, Funko, and GameStop are where I got all mine. We do have a few local shops here in AZ that have a pretty good amount of them too.

I'm hoping more physical stores start carrying Dorbz. Walmart is getting exclusives which is a good sign and I've been starting to see Dorbz at Target.

Barnes & Noble and GameStop are my go to places, but I normally just order online.

Mainly HT, B&N, GS, and Funko Shop. I've learned that it's important (at least in my area) to preorder Dorbz from GS, otherwise the stores may only receive zero to a few of each, including exclusives.

My local Barnes and Noble has about 20 disney and not much else. I might have to start pre-ordering from gamestop.

GameStop mainly. I preorder what I can. BN has gotten more. Target now has them (CW and AC) and I hear Walmart will have them now. I haven't seen any in WM, but I certainly hope to when Cable is released. :freddy2:

Gamestop and B&N for most of mine (plus the member discount is good on them at B&N!). I've picked up a few from Hot Topic, Funko Shop, Amazon, and rarely other places like comic shops.

Most of the Gamestop ones, however, were the clearance or exclusives. They have a really poor selection at the moment. Hoping the Black Friday releases help change that.

GS, HT, B&N, BAM...the later of the bunch is better than the others. Local comic shops have them on and off.
BBTS, EE, and TW seem to be the sites I grab them from the most.

B&N, Toy Tokyo and Forbidden Planet. The HT by me don't have much Dorbz at all, just a few old ones.

Now that I think about it, I don't think I have bought a Dorbz in store. Mainly just order online from Gamestop etc.

Since I don't live in the US anymore, I have to wait a while till the 2 only stores in the UAE (Dubai and Abu Dhabi mainly) that sell collectibles get them. But when they have US exclusives, such as Hot Topic, Funko, Walmart, etc... I usually end up ordering them online or eBay..

Sucks that I don't live in the US anymore..

I like to buy them from Ferrara Market for the non-exclusive and specialty series. They have great sales and a great selection, and a legitimate chance to get a chase if the specific Dorbz has one.

I stocked up from there when they had a sale a few months ago. Everything came packed really well, and I didn't know until after I ordered but they are not to far from where I live so it arrived pretty quickly.

They are doing an event on December 3rd as well at the community hall. There is a Facebook Event for it. Should be able to find it from their store page.

Nobody near me sells Dorbz, so I end up resorting to Amazon/EBay, most of the time.

I prefer in person at Hot Topic, but alot of them dont carry dorbz or dont carry the line that i want. So next I'll buy on HotTopic.com, then gamestop. Gamestop seems to get in faster than HT, but I like the deals at HT. :D

I've bought most of my dorbz from Entertainment Earth with the exception of store exclusives. I've gotten lucky and received a few Chases from them. I rarely buy in-store since my local hot topic and gamestop rarely put any in stock

Mostly Gamestop. Hawaii HT doesn't really carry any Dorbz although I was lucky enough to pick up the Thunder Beam Mega Man. BN only has older Dorbz that never gets marked down.

I don't have a Barnes and Noble close enough to frequent and the last time I went to Books a Million was before Dorbz even came out, except once but it was the smaller-yet-closer store and they barely even have Pops much less Dorbz (this was before I started collecting them, so they may have had them and I just looked over them). My local Hot Topic only has the old ones on the back clearance wall. Until the stocking stuffer exclusives, I never saw any Dorbz in Walmart.

So... Apart from the exclusives where I'd have had to gotten them from that store or somebody selling them, I've gotten most of mine from GameStop, but all but 2 have come from their website because my local GameStop seems to have clearanced them all out and now never get any new ones in.

Though I did get the Wreck It Ralph set and the normal Mega Man from popcultcha, and the Specialty Series Moana from Radar Toys.

My local Hot Topic doesn't have Dorbz. What they do have are Pops that are stacked on a table near the entrance. Two words: hot cash. :)

Have not been to TRU for a while, but literally the only Dorbz available in my area at a B and M store are 2 Pinhead figures at Gamestop. Thats it. Nothing more. So I'm a bit worried about my chances at the MoTU line thats calling my name. Hopefully Books A Million and Barnes and Noble will begin restocking some soon. And maybe Gamestop will come thru again eventually.

Pretty much echo what everyone else i saying. Gamestop has good deals...if you have amazon prime theres always good stuff on there too. A lot of our local comic stores started carrying. Also Target and Barnes and now Walmart seemed to be stacked.

Every time I buy Dorbz on Amazon, they either come with a damaged box, an unwanted sticker on the box or a sticky box. Entertainment Earth is the absolute best. The boxes come in mint or near mint condition. I just don't like paying full price at EE.

GameStop since they're as cheap as 47 cents. Why pay more when you can pay so much less?
