Re: Harry Potter S3 MM
Hello all! Looking for the B&N Basilisk and Riddle. Also still in the hunt for Target Hermione if anyone is selling/trading. PM me if you have any of these three available.
I have a few extra HP3 (Crabbe, Rita, Goyle, Moody, Draco, Argus, HT Lucius, HT Harry, Target Harry); R&M2 (Target Toxic Rick/Toxic Morty/Jaguar); SW:ESB (Wampa and GS Leia) that I can offer for trade.
On a side note, looking for R&M1 HT Meeseeks with golf club and Lord of the Rings: HT Trio (Witch King, Lurtz, Eowyn). Thanks!

This seems to be the tough one to get for some reason right now. First BN case I came across, I found a Basilisk with Filch. 6 cases later and still no Tom. Had the same issue with the HT Lucius but luckily had an awesome funatic help me with that one. Found enough Filches to start an army though

It took 5 B&N cases to find Tom. It seems the Basilisk was more prevalent as I found 3 of those. With Hot Ropic it was Rom as well that took about 5 cases. I did find Lucius in the first case.

Re: Harry Potter S3 MM
Am I hearing that people have extra Basilisk? Because I have extra Tom...

Really odd. Maybe a lot of the cases he is in just haven’t been shipped out yet or something. Seems a lot of people aren’t finding him easily but the basilisk hasn’t been as much of an issue

That's funny, because I've been having the opposite problem. Took me 5 cases to find a Basilisk, but pulled TR on my first and second cases. Seems unlikely, but maybe there's a location/distribution factor involved.

I ordered 2 from BN.com before I found one in-store. If I get another in the mail, he's yours (if you still need him by then)

This could definitely be a factor too. I could see it being a regional or shipping issue like you say also

Re: Harry Potter S3 MM
Hey peeps - I know we're all busy with BN right now, but just gotta say, if you still need Target - double check them! Went there for an unrelated HP thing tonight (LEGO!), and they'd RESTOCKED!!! Fresh case, just sitting there calling my name!!
I took the chance, hoping I could help someone out with a Hermione. Alas - pulled another Draco. SIGH! But it was definitely not a combined case, Harry was behind Draco (Harry = Top middle right), and I believe Filch was next to Draco (didn't try for either Front top left or Harry's spot, since I think darn near everyone has those two!)
Happy hunting everyone! Good luck - bust out those DPCI codes again!

Now I just have to sit through 8 hours of work before heading over to Target. No problem. I can definitely do this. *I am stronger than my overwhelming addiction to Minis*

Someone already got to one store's before us, but I was able to hold the (hopefully) top 4 from one store with a fresh box. We'll head over tonight, hopefully it's the magic box with all 3 exclusives!

I was beat to all the B&N near me. If anyone has an extra Myrtle or Basilisk please keep me in mind. Also looking for Lucius. I haven’t actually gotten anything from this set yet but I’m trying to get my favorites from the exclusives first then slowly get the rest. My kids’ sets kind of tapped me out for my own.

Re: Harry Potter S3 MM
Finally found a case at B&N, but only ended up with Moaning Myrtle. No Tom or Basilisk. Got a Draco and a Crabbe instead. Asked if they had anymore cases and they said someone came in and bought 3 cases in one purchase. They claimed to have 1 more case on their system but cannot find it.
So I’m still in search of B&N Tom Riddle and Basilisk. I would be willing to trade if anyone has extras. I have the following extras:
Target Quidditch World Cup Harry
Hot Topic sepia Tom Riddle
Mad-Eye Moody
Rita Skeeter
Crabbe
Malfoy

Re: Harry Potter S3 MM
These are finally showing up in the Chicago area. I was able to get them to get a fresh case from the back. So if they are not on the shelves yet just have them grab from the back and get a golden fresh case. Its like winning the lotto when you see them carrying an untouched case just for you.
What a nice boat. Do you want it back?

Hit up my second Target this week today, and they ONLY had the wands. 2 full cases of them, but alas - no minis, and none of the lego minifigures (my current quest). Target mocking me all around!

Thanks! Looks like the "in stock" for the Target closest to me was reporting on the remnants of their old common case. The other 2 stores that are also fairly close by have been out of stock for some time, so hopefully if/when they get restocks, it will be with exclusives!
In other news, my BN order arrived on Friday. No Basilisk to share

Re: Harry Potter S3 MM
hi all
So pleased to finally have my login approved. Ive been following these posts with lots of interest.
Im based in the UK so we dont even get the HT, Target or B&N boxes, but we can order these cases in from other countries. I have almost completed S3 but had to resort to ebay to get B&N Tom Riddle which I’m hoping will arrive next week.
Can I please ask you all, did most people manage to complete their series 2 collection? We managed to get nearly all apart from the Hot topic exclusives. I can’t believe someone on eBay is selling a Buckbeak for £800, that’s beyond belief to me! Like I’d really like to get Buckbeak but £800!!! seriously!
Was it always been hard to get in the US? I’m wondering if I just need to forget about it and concentrate on tracking down Sirius, Fred & George. Thanks all

I know a lot of people that are missing a Buckbeak in their season 2 collections. He was definitely the hardest figure to track down and people really wanted him so that unfortunately drove up the price. And of course once the price was so high flippers came out of the woodwork to raid all the Hot Topics to try to get all the Buckbeaks to make a profit. Really just an unfortunate set of circumstances. It is unusual for Hot Topics to get re-stocks, especially this long after the series was released and after the next series has been released. The price has been pretty steady around $300 for a while, so while it may fluctuate a bit every now and again it probably will never come down to a reasonable level.

Yeah, unfortunately almost all of the Hot Topic exclusives here in the States skyrocket to at least $100 for 1/36s, $150-200+ for 1/72s, and a varying amount for any other rarity. The exception is Sirius Black, who was a 1/24 and is worth almost as much as the 1/36s. There are just not a lot of Hot Topics in the States, they only get a couple boxes each, and they don't seem to sell very many online compared to other stores that get exclusives.
