Don’t get me started on how hard it is to get mystery minis in San Diego when you have like 6-7 dedicated hunters

Yeah, let's team up Noe! Oh wait, we have jobs.

It's extremely hard in SD. We have dedicated hunters here who just clear out the whole case as soon as they appear. You have to be jobless and diligent.

It's why I don't bother with chases, we have the same problem. If it's hard to get and I can't grab online I go without. I haven't tried to get a lot of mini's here but there is a Walgreens 10 mins from me. I can try for us.

I mainly order those online also. Dedicated hunters took all the fun out of going to the stores.

I'm gonna ask Jes for a case for my birthday, which is in November, but I will tell her it's an early present and by the time my birthday comes she will have forgotten and I will get something else too. That doesn't solve the Walgreens problem though. You can't order a case from them.

But if she loves you she will go to every Walgreens in the state, right? I love this plan, double the gifts, double the fun!

I could have a real monster mash with these! I just don't have a Walgreens near me...

I have about 8 Walgreens within ten miles of my home and none of them have gotten any new Funko items in about a year and if they managed to get some there is this jobless guy that I have seen going from one to the next in search of exclusives, total pain in the butt.

Nope, I need my job. I can't afford to buy all the cool stuff that gives my life meaning without it.

That is a sold point so we all need to win the lotto and quit our jobs?

Seems like a low percentage option, but worth a shot.

I can't stop oogling over them. By the way, I saw online stores listing pre-orders for July. Between these and the Ad Icons it'll be hard to keep up.

Wow that Mole Man and Invsible Man... but no Funko, I'm still upset. Those Walgreens figures better be 1/12. Please don't do this to us. lol

I am with you. It’s difficult enough to find the minis at Walgreens in general. If they drop with crazy ratios,, which I have a bad feeling that they will, this set is going to be a nightmare!

Postby **kingdomcustoms** » Sat May 18, 2019 7:15 pm

I'm not one for MM's par a few, but I will definitely be picking up both Dracula's and the Phantom, probably the B&W's too if they're not too pricey on the secondary market!

Edit: 1/6 to 1/72, AND a whole other exclusive B/W set?! FUNKO WHY?!

Agree. I do enjoy and want more Horror Classic Series.

Really hoping the ratios are wrong and this is a 1/12 set.

These sets looks amazing but if I gotta choose 1 I would love the black n white Walgreen exclusives cos they suit the monster theme more.

Postby **professorratigan** » Tue May 21, 2019 1:32 pm

I love the Universal Monsters and think these are dope, but I can't be the only person disappointed that these aren't in the Horror Series style, to match the ones that have come in the past, can I? I really like the older Frankenstein, Gill-Man, Mummy and Wolf-Man Minis. And none of these, except MAYBE Invisible Man, will fit in with them.

Postby **OzzyRhds** » Tue May 21, 2019 1:40 pm

I need these!

Postby **Funko_Phan26** » Tue May 21, 2019 3:18 pm

I had not collected a mystery mini set in a while and now all the sudden back to back releases of sets.... GoT, End Game, Toy Story 4, Spiderman- FFH, Ghostbusters, now these!! Next thing you know they'll announce Harry Potter 4.

They certainly have been wrong before.... Rick and Morty 2 was supposed to be crazy ratios and ended up being 1/12....we can hope that they would take pity on Walgreen's terrible distribution

These look amazing, good luck to all those trying!

Postby **lavery01** » Tue May 21, 2019 3:26 pm

These are so dope! We only have a few horror pops in our collection because horror is not one of our main lines, but I see at least 3 that I would like to have.

Postby **Rocky625** » Tue May 21, 2019 4:48 pm

The Walgreens set is a must have!

Postby **RobinBear177** » Tue May 21, 2019 5:08 pm

I just really want both Frankenstein’s, both invisible man, Bride, and Dracula holding the candle. Really hoping I’ll be able to find those without too much difficulty. The Walgreens Set would be nice but I don’t think I’ll try for all of them.

Postby **POPianato** » Wed May 22, 2019 5:18 am

While they'll be tough to find, hopefully 1:12 ratios will make up for the case hunt at Walgreens.

Same. The fact that only 12 minis for the common and walgreens cases are being shown makes me think that perhaps the ratios are wrong and it will be a 1/12 set. Funko has messed up their ratios so many times now that I don't trust them to be accurate anymore when they make these announcements.
