Good luck on the Sweet Tooth custom Tres! Can't wait to see it!

Mean Machine (already shipping)
Beast with Blackbird (end of this month)
MotU (hinted by Brian, sounded like more than one)
Franken Berry
Boo Berry (Brian said last year that eventually all 5 Monster Cereal Ridez would be released, and 3 have been released since he said that)
Great Gazoo (just a rumor at this point, but placeholder has shown up on B&N)
Ghost Rider and Charger- Agents of Shield (Brian announced in the 12 days thread)

Mean Machine has shipped, Beast is now in stores and He-Man showed up in the shop today, so that's 3 down and 5 or 6 to go depending on how many more MotU ones there will be :-)

And that doesn't include "wow I didn't see that coming" Ridez of which I'm sure there will be at least a few this year! At this rate I may have enough to fill up a 2nd case before I even get a chance to set it up lol

Thank you! It's on pause right now because I'm working on a commission for someone- a lighted DBZ display with flames and stuff :-)

Looks very cool.

Bump for a update

Postby **treswright** » Tue Feb 07, 2017 2:26 pm

I updated the list on the first page with the Great Gazoo Ridez announced for ECCC :-)

At first when I saw it I wondered why they didn't put the dome on his saucer, but in looking around apparently there are two different saucer versions, the one from the cartoon:

And the one from the comics:

I could have sworn the cartoon ship had a dome, but it's been many years since I watched it! It's pretty clear they were duplicating the cartoon version:

Anyway he looks awesome, and I really love the big metalflake the saucer is molded in!

Also the numbering is curious, it's 28. So there are several gaps in the numbering now:

20 He-Man with Battle Cat
21 ???
22 ???
23 ???
24 George Jetson with Spaceship
25 ???
26 ???
27 ???
28 The Great Gazoo with Flying Saucer

Interesting. 06 is also a gap, but it was probably supposed to be Vanellope but they accidentally duplicated number 05 on her.

I would really like the Great Gazoo with Flying Saucer, that is such a great piece.

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Tue Feb 07, 2017 2:53 pm

I hope one of those missing numbers is Agent Coulson. And I do believe Ghost Rider was mentioned.

Toy Fair is next week so hopefully we see what's missing.

You're right, Brian did mention the Ghost Rider Charger in the 12 days announcements. Here is a list I posted a while back of Ridez Brian has hinted at but have not been officially announced yet:

Additional MotU (Brian said "a few" and so far we have one, so presumably two more are coming)
Franken Berry
Boo Berry (Brian said last year that eventually all 5 Monster Cereal Ridez would be released, and 3 have been released since he said that)
Ghost Rider and Charger- Agents of Shield (Brian announced in the 12 days thread)

I'm thinking a couple of those missing slots are the extra MotU Ridez since empty slots fall right after He-Man, but who knows, the numbers don't always follow a logical projection :-)

Interesting. 06 is also a gap, but it was probably supposed to be Vanellope but they accidentally duplicated number 05 on her.

So I'm guessing and hoping 2 will be He-Man related, 2 are the other cereal monsters and the other 2 are either new or the Marvel already mentioned.

I do hope that we get to see some other unexpectered treats at Toy Fair. I've been browsing the HB catalog and the ridez possibilities are just endless. Factor in other licenses and we could get some pretty wicked ridez....[

I wonder if there will be different color schemes with this one in addition to the ECCC green :eek:

For anyone interested, you can preorder the upcoming Ghost Rider Dorbz Ridez at GS now. I don't think it's an exclusive so it should be widely available, but I wanted to lock one in ASAP :-)

The GS number is 142573 and they're showing a release date of 04-18.

The Walmart link has surfaced as well so looks like it will be pretty widely available.

Dear Walmart, STOP.

Postby **Eloy** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 6:40 am

I just saw this on reddit. Wonder if it will have the correct logo on his chest? Remember the sdcc pack logo was wrong?

Postby **willy wonka** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 6:44 am

What different about this one it looks the same as the others?

Postby **PopGoestheJess** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 7:26 am

Hideous sticker is hideous....ffs Can any store have an exclusive sticker that isn't an eyesore?!

Postby **allcutethings2** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 7:51 am

Adorable, and I must have it. Here's hoping it doesn't take as long to hit stores in my area as the Blackbird did.

Postby **DefNotBlitz** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 7:57 am

It's based on the 1989 Batman movie as opposed to the 1992 Batman Returns 3 pack.

PopGoestheJess wrote:Hideous sticker is hideous....ffs Can any store have an exclusive sticker that isn't an eyesore?!

Hot Topic's LE Dorbz sticker is pretty nice IMO. Other nice ones are TRU and B&N.

Postby **treswright** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 8:28 am

Wow, I didn't even hear any hints about this one and it's already in stores? Interesting.

Postby **Arloe8** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 10:38 am

Glad I haven't bought those other 3 batmobiles I need. I'm going to seriously have to do some thinking on another batmobile.
This brings back so many memories. I still remember seeing the 89 Batman movie in theater and having to sit separately because we got to the movie only 30 minutes late lol

Postby **commodorefunko** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 12:43 pm

Yes, I like this! Anything Batman/Burton is a buy for me!

Postby **odnar** » Fri Feb 17, 2017 12:47 pm

That batman dorbz ridez...I'm sure I will try to add the 89 Burton version to my collection even though I already have a few of these guys.

I admire your ability to restrain yourself, I certainly do not share that ability when it comes to Ridez lol

O I caved on the ridez due to peer pressure #-o

I'm only missing a few though....The 2 SDCC Banana Splits, the Mystery Machine and 3 Batmobiles regular, chrome and BvsS.

I have a B&N gift card burning hole in my pocket waiting on Gazoo...

I swore off Pop Rides and then they release Dino and HKP ](*,)

I agree with the "for the love of everything, Walmart, just STOP" sentiment. I'm pretty sure I saw that they had a Carnage Dorbz coming. Why must you punish me so?

I frequently whine that Walmart has a personal grudge against me so they only get exclusives I would want. The day they get a Power Girl related exclusive is the day I begin my march on their HQ.

Saw a picture on Reddit of Beast with Blackbird for $10.00. Going to stop by a few walmarts today and see what I can find.

Postby **treswright** » Wed Feb 22, 2017 1:13 pm

Yeehaw, thanks to the Funko Shop we're now 4 for 5 on the Monster Cereal Ridez :-D

Frankenberry is number 22, I added him to the master list!

I wouldn't be surprised, I'm seeing so many in stores that they are bound to go on clearance at some point. It seems to vary from store to store though. Usually when they mark toys down they move then to the clearance aisle, so you might need to start checking there for them. What I do is watch to see if something disappears from toys, and if it does I go check in clearance. I picked up some ridiculously cheap Dewbacks that way, they were marked down to 4.99.

Postby **Arloe8** » Wed Feb 22, 2017 1:26 pm

Boo Berry has to be GITD [-o<

And I wish I was patient enough to wait for them to go on clearance.
