Upcoming HT Exclusives

I saw Sauron. I didn't know if he was worth picking up. I don't care much for LOTR or the Hobbit

Sauron is not a rare or exclusive but it is a sexy figure. If you like the design even though you don't care about lotr it is worth it. Not really worth it for trade/flipping.

"I don't care much for LOTR

"I don't care much for LOTR"

Blasphemy! I kid of course, but I can't imagine passing him up.

We wants it, we needs it. MY PRECIOUS.

Smaug is back up on the site. Discounted too.

Edit: Just kidding. it sold out.

How cruel.

Postby **jedik6** » Tue Nov 18, 2014 11:55 am

You may be able to get one off of Popcultcha. I'm not the biggest Hobbit fan either but the Golden Smaug was just too nice to pass up.

I need some kind of code hack that automatically orders me one the minute he's back on the website. :bounce:

Also, yes, Sauron is one sexy Pop! All of these brand new Pop!s and exclusives are killing me since I can't buy everything with Christmas coming up.

Postby **jedik6** » Tue Nov 18, 2014 12:01 pm

Ha! That would be a great code to have! I have been slowly acquiring Christmas gifts all year long so hopefully, I should be able to buy some more pops. Only thing is I can't go too crazy - trying to save for Funko SDCC Pre-Buy.

Personally I already pre-ordered from Popcultcha, being from The Netherlands it's cheaper anyway (HT are unreasonable with their shipping) and it saves me the pain of constantly checking the Hot Topic site. But I still thought it was a bit of a mean comment, for those who desperately want one and maybe got their hopes up for a split second. I can see the humor in it if you already have one or don't want one... But man, people shouldn't play with other people's feelings like that; the struggle is real ;-)

Totally understand where you're coming from. The struggle is real. Glad u got one though

Oh, I forgot to mention that when I was picking up Cap last night, I still didn't see the exclusive blue suit AA Batman. Anyone in NorCal have luck?

Postby **0xTurtle** » Tue Nov 18, 2014 2:02 pm

I am STILL hunting Cap here in PA (starting to look grim though), anyone have any luck around PA/OH in general?

Postby **flapjacky** » Tue Nov 18, 2014 2:11 pm

No blue AA Batman down here in SoCal either. Where are they?! :sad2:

I know this exclusive is really getting on my nerves to find. I saw about 10 Smaugs the past week.

Postby **jedik6** » Tue Nov 18, 2014 4:17 pm

Was able to get my blue AA Batman today and I'm in So cal. I think they're just starting to come in.

What's your area code? I haven't been to HT today lol

There is clearly a couple flippers that hit the Hot Topics around me, all the Exclusives are always out by the time I get there. One of them I check like 2-3 times in a week as it is in walking distance from work. They had the Blue Batman for all of three hours, then someone came in and bought them all before I could get in there at lunch. There really should be limits on how man of the same Pop you can buy at HT.

That's why I like going as soon as the store opens rofl.

try and make friends with the people that work there. I'm friends with 3 of the people at my HT and they ALWAYS expect me each we so they put a case aside for me so I can have my pickings. Or try and talk to the manager and see if they will hold em for you

I just went to one of the long island stores. There are five golden smaugs in Massapequa and I just picked up blue aa batman. There are also 3-4 earth 2 batman figures there.

Postby **operez086** » Wed Nov 19, 2014 1:14 am

I stopped by HT on my way to work on a hunch and finally found Earth 2 Batman! They had like 6 of them, but the only thing that sucked was that they didn't call me when they got him. i had a feeling they wouldn'tcall but doesn't matter anymore since i got him finally. Man he was hard to get this time around!

Postby **moresynthplease** » Wed Nov 19, 2014 2:30 am

Stopped at Oakridge: no AA Batman yet. FYI: had a couple Smaug, Earth 2 Batman, Metallic BMO and various other exclusives.

Postby **saul_damascus** » Wed Nov 19, 2014 8:41 am

Ill try this again. A friend found the aa blue batman. If anyone finds any of the three smaugs and cares to pick an extra one i'd be happy to send cash.

Postby **HappinessGuano** » Wed Nov 19, 2014 12:05 pm

Smaug was back up on the HT website once more, thanks to a little post I saw on Facebook. I just submitted my order and here's hoping they don't cancel it.

Smaug-old is back in stock on HT's website

how long does the pre-release window typically last? I just started watching Black Butler and I have only seen one in store recently that I recognized, and two others on their website, so I'd be missing one if I like it and decide to get them...

Posted this in the eyes on the web section, should have posted it here

Yesterday, walked into the Hot Topic in Frisco, TX last night and they were unboxing 4 of them. 2 were already on hold, 1 was being bought when I walked in, and lucked out and got the last one. Best part was they also had 1 Comikaze Capt'n America! They got 3 total of the Comikaze exclusive and two were already sold.

If anyone can find me the Blue Arkham variant please I would be more than willing to pay also help you find something you need if it's in my store.

Today they stocked up on Hula Minion, Fire Alarm Minion and Russell from UP.

Found Blue Arkham today at HT. They also has 2 Earth 2 Batmans. Paint jobs were terrible, but it looks like they made another batch of them. Good luck everybody.
