8am is actually harder for me than 2am (cst)... but I just need the FB2 one (if that's all true), so everybody just better let me get that and you all can have the rest of them lol

9 AM EST is so good. I'm really happy I don't have to be awake at 3 AM for the ones I want. I'd like to try to get the Pikachu for a white elephant thing we're doing with some friends. So we'll see how easily obtainable it is. lol. Looking forward to what else there will be! Yay.

9am will be so great, the misses will be happy to know that I don't have to wake her up at 3am or sleep on the couch to wake up at 3am. My biggest fear is that target's shipping will be detrimental for the 10 in pikachu, I'm so scared..

Someone could have easily made up that memo or someone at Target saw and said haha let's just mix it all up because we can do what we want. Kind of excited it's not exactly how the memo said, haha. As long as some of the items on the list are real then I'm good.

Excited to see what kind of Pikachu it is - 10"? Christmas themed? Hmmm...

As a West coast night owl, I'm gonna miss the midnight release, but it's the east coast's turn for some good drop times. It's good to know in advance either way. I really hope drops go smoothly.

Looks like they changed it up from the rumored list, but Pikachu being first works best since the 23rd might be busy with holidays.

The 10" ones don't seem to be as "flipable" either, since the cost of shipping combined with the $30 price tag is so much that the margins aren't as great. Assuming it's the 10" one and not a reissue/recolor/santa hat? or something of a smaller one.

It’s online only. A little harder to stash them all then the company knows the stock count

Just saw more info about the Target drops...looks like it should be fairly straightforward and easy to get as long as you are on top of it.

9 am sucks for me. :(. I work until 4 am! I guess I’ll have to set my alarm. Good thing, off the rumored list (if it’s still true, but out of order), all I want is the fantastic beasts one and maybe the Coca Cola bear and bullseye. Pikachu has no interest to me.

I'm sure there will be lots of stock. Funko has been creating 15k exclusives for a while now and I'm sure these won't be too far off.

Hopefully it goes really quick so you can wake up, quick check out, then get more rest. I'm sure some of the west coast people aren't too happy with a 6am drop for similar reasons.

I don't collect the 10" pops but I think I will log on just in case. I don't feel like I am comfortable on the order of releases. Was the leak wrong, is the hint wrong? too many factors not to play it safe.

I am assuming the hint is more official than the leak (who knows, maybe they saw that it was leaked and decided to change it up for whatever reason). But if you log in you can know for sure, and maybe see how they handle putting them up (hopefully it is right at 8amCST and not delayed like Target likes to do sometimes).

I am so glad Target listened to us about the ridiculous 3am EST. drops. I have no problem staying up till 12 or getting up at 6am. But to get up at 3am was nuts. It's about time. Looking forward to trying to get some of these.

The leaked list was pretty sketchy, way too casual for a corporate letter. Plus stores have no reason to know the info, it would be a target online server thing
