IT Minis are starting to hit stores

Great things come in mysterious miniature or pint sized packages, but which great thing will it be? It's all a mystery until you open one. Then the fun begins.

Last week my FYE put out two fresh cases and of course one was Leper and one was Judith. I went back today and there were some new cases and some mixed cases and by an act of God I pulled an exclusive Beverly and an exclusive Eddie. With that...I am done. Still need to help a friend of mine find the 1/72 Pennywise and 1/72 HT Bill.

Hey all! I am new to the group, but not new to collecting. I have been serious for about 6 months and just recently got into colleting the IT minis. The last one I need is the FYE Eddie w/inhaler. If anyone has one to trade, LMK! I have some of the Pennywise HTF for trade. Thanks!

I was able to be around for a walgreens case being put out fresh as well as FYE, got the middle right upper and lower, BOTH cases gave me the bike Bill and dancing Pennywise. That's the third time in a row I got them, so with that I'm calling it a day. The Bill makes some sense, but the other doesn't, especially with them being brand new exclusive cases. Really bummed, but it is what it is.

That sucks, Walgreens layout must be a little different. We've never found an untouched case so it's hard to verify.

Anyone seeing these pop up at new stores? I'm really trying to avoid dropping $50 for Spiderwise, but he just isn't dropping on eBay. Same with armless Georgie.

I’ve found a couple of picked through cases at Barnes and noble. Haven’t seen any restocks at box lunch since the initial release.

I have picked up so many of these, however have not gotten anything above a 1/12 and no exclusives. So frustrating

Are you picking them up from a fresh case? Because people know the sweet spots in the cases and if you get there after someone bought them, your chances to get the exclusives is almost none.

Random picks aren't always the best. You should get a scale for educated guesses if the case is mixed.

Scales can be hard for this set too, but can narrow it down at least. All the kids weigh about the same.

I can confirm that the Walgreens layout is the same. Stopped in and didn’t have my scale but still pulled the 1/24, 1/36 and 1/72 from a fresh box

My goal = All of the Pennywises. I'm short HT Pennywise and Crab Legs Pennywise. I feel like Crab Legs will eventually turn up since it seems like all of the common cases around here are judith/leper/Georgie. HT Pennywise seems like it'll be a different story but I'm keepin' the dream alive!

Thanks! I went to my Walmart this past Monday to check out their new 'Pop Culture' section in Electronics, turns out they weren't one of the stores that kept to that date so they are barren of any Funko products. I'll keep a look out now that you mentioned it, Thanks Again!

I finally gave up and bought the 1:72 Spider Pennywise on eBay for the lowest I've seen it thus far. That completes my goal of collecting Pennywise/all the variants so I consider this set complete. :)

Sometimes it's better to just bite the bullet and buy one, depending on availability in your area and how much time/effort you want to put into getting it. Congrats on completing the set you wanted!

Keep you’re head up you’re bound to pull one sooner or later. If not I may have a Walgreens pennywise for sale. I bought a few from groups and accidentally think I bought multiples. Just let me know.
950+ pops, dorbz, minis, psh, patches, and pins.
