Re: Twinkie POPS
Not sure if anyone on here has questioned it, but why are the Twinkies GITD? Is it cuz they're radioactive and don't expire? @__@

I missed the online drop by just a few minutes, I'm really hoping they restock online or in-store again. Still haven't been able to find the chase anywhere.

Me too. It makes finding pops very difficult.
How do people come out at midnight to line up beats me
I don't have anything against it I guess. I am tempted to do it honestly but I don't think I can physically handle it.

It's really nice that Target has wised up about shipping Pops, because in the past I've gotten them shoved into a box way too small and they were crushed (not just the box, but the actual figure).

I don't know about you all, but I decided to say screw the Chase at Target. I got the common GITD one at Target with the white hat, and I'll get the non exclusive common with the brown hat that doesn't glow. Since I know I'll never find the Chase at Target and I'm not paying that absurd amount. I'll be perfectly happy with the white hat GITD and a brown hat non-GITD.

Wow, nice! 1 hour waiting isn't too bad all things considered. Plus you got out of Target unscathed and with pop intact

OH NO! I finally got a regular at Target. We have a few animals around here that were using the apps (most know what I'm talking about) and they were going in the store and actually telling them I know you have them and we are not leaving until you bring them out. The manager told me they waited for 4 1/2 hours now because of this they said they will stock randomly throughout the day. Not the day they come in and they will not look for any Funko anymore because the customers were so rude to them and their employees. This is the most honest Target around and the manager was accused of letting workers hide, buy and hook up their friends. Hope they don't start being like Wal Mart and just not stock anything at all. Our Wal Mart looks like they stopped selling Pops. The 3 local ones have not stocked in months

Hopefully they will stop giving exclusive pops to Target. Solves both problems. Target employees are just as guilty in this. If they didnt hide, hook up friends, hoard chases and regular exclusives, they wouldn't have any problems. They dont even put them on the shelf, often hidden in a cabinet or a basket somewhere. If they were honest, and put them on the shelves when received, would solve a lot of issues.
Collectors should always be polite, and respectful to employees. But, cant really blame someone for getting frustrated at an employee hiding them for their friends. Its human nature to dislike being lied too.

Is it actually possible to get the Chase variant if you ordered it online? Someone must've mentioned it in previous posts if there has been a case of that happening.

Yes you can get the Chase from online order. I had 1 order of 1 Twinkie and it was the Chase.

I finally got my hands on these guys and decided to run them under my UV light. A tad disappointed that I couldn't distinguish chase from normal once the lights went off.
