I agree to that, at least at the HT's I go too whenever they get an exclusive they get a good chunk of them, where as Walgreen's will only get a few or couple exclusives delivered. ](*,)

Hope we see some glams for these soon. Part of the fun is in the hunt, though it did get annoying driving to 10+ walgreens with no marvel exclusives in stock

And some of them are being kept in the back by the managers. Which Hot Topics don't really do.

Considering all the past Walgreens exclusive toys ended up easy to find I would not would not worry about the Marvel or SW POPs. The Marvel Legends Agent Venom that people were flipping out over is sitting around at many locations in my area. I expect the POPs will be in abundance before long.

Sucks that it had to be Walgreens, but aside from that, what are you all hoping to see?

I'm quite partial to the holographic variants, but I imagine they might be related to the upcoming Star Wars film. If that's the case, it might be a while before we see these.

I suddenly think Funko hates us and wants us to be unhappy.

Postby **xmaldigolax** » Sun Feb 01, 2015 11:22 pm

My problem is that I have been trying to find the marvel ones for international people who have been PMing me every other day asking if I found them yet. I don't care for any of them save Venom, so it is particularly irritating for me until they finally release and I can send these out and put this fiasco behind me.

I can't stand this current search to find the rest of the Walgreens POPS. I was lucky to get my hands on Venom / Black Spidey but I really want Punisher. The employees at my local Walgreens must think I'm some type of weirdo stalking out the toy aisle every day lol

. They should just release them online. I don't care if its a quick release like Toy Tokyo Vegeta, at least I'll know If I got them or not.

I like how everyone is hating on Walgreen's. I have not found one of these Pops yet but not worried. Walgreen's said the 6th and we are all complaining that we cant find them. Give it a week or two after the time they are supposed to be available before we burn the store down. All this hype is just creating a false sense of rarity and making people flip them on Ebay and Managers hold them who had no idea what a POP was until 90 people called before the ship date to ask if they had any. Walgreen's has over 8,300 stores in the US. Star wars POPs will be easy to find just as the Marvel ones will be too in time. Patience people we will all get them at a normal price if we just wait. Plus checking a few stores in the area makes it more fun then just order it online and wait at the mail box.

Dude, I'm in the same boat, hahah. I was saying the other day, Walgreens must think I'm getting ready to rob the place since I've been going in there so often without buying anything.

This means we are getting 8 new Star Wars Pop!s soonish. There's the 4 that Gamestop have available for Pre-Order now and then these 4 Walgreens exclusives. Then there's the re-release of "vaulted" Star Wars Pop!s as well coming.

I can just imagine how many more will be out in November/December in time for Episode VII.

Postby **Sir Real** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 9:35 am

FYI, there's only 3 at Gamestop.

Postby **Fugly16** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 9:54 am

Which 3 are they?

Postby **BigM** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 10:14 am

As far as we know the Star Wars POP aren't exclusive to Gamestop. If they aren't I wouldn't order from them when I know they'll be everywhere (especially since Walgreens is getting more).

Also people do need to be patient. I've been hearing so many things about the Marvel exclusives that I can't keep track of what's going on with them.

I'm sure these will be easily found by the end of the month at most Walgreens. This happens with almost every exclusive now.

Postby **kchua** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 10:23 am

is there an official announcement as to what or who these star wars exclusives are?

I wonder if Hoth Han will look too similar to Hoth Luke

Snow drift Chewie though, I'm glad I held off from buying regular Chewie this weekend

Postby **ajc5349** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 11:01 am

If they say they'll come out in March, expect them to be available in May. Lol.

Postby **blueberry_yoghurt** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 11:06 am

Cannot wait to see Snow Drift Chewie!

I hope the Walgreen's exclusives aren't anything I want!

Wait, there's a 4th? When I preordered at GameStop, there were only 3. Was Snowy Chewie a recent addition? I guess I need to go back and preorder that 4th one.

Snow drift Chewbacca is actually listed before the other three a few lines up.

No, not "was it added here in this topic"?, but I what I was asking was "Was the preorder for Snowbacca added later than the other 3, at Gamestop?" Asked another way: have all 4 of these pops been available for preorder at Gamestop the entire time? Because when I went to Gamestop to preorder, they only had 3.

And there's another topic that discusses these SW GS pops, I just can't find it.

Oh no, I hope these Pops soon become more easy to find!

Is there a screenshot showing all 4 GameStop pops yet? I only think I've seen one with 2 or 3

Do you mean the glams or a computer screen with the name?

Postby **TheJobaFett** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 7:09 pm

Computer screenshot

Postby **jambes** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 7:17 pm

Okay so I just had some time to kill so I ran into work to see if I could gather any info.

(At least in my store) there is no expected delivery date which means they won't be around for at least 2-3 months from now. So at least you will have a break between the Marvel madness.

Bad news is they are linked in the computer section with basic stock, so this means if I try to order any, I will probably get a bunch of TMNT or HTTYD or the like in. I'm going to open a ticket with the help center tomorrow to see if they can separate the link. If not, I will try to escalate it to my DM to see if she can help. Otherwise I will have no way to help anyone find these.

Be patient and try not to worry. Hopefully they will see how people worried about the Marvel set and will handle this a little better!

Postby **agentaa** » Mon Feb 02, 2015 7:58 pm

Wait so I'm confused. Are the four GameStop pops exclusive to GameStop or will they be released elsewhere?

Unknown at this stage as no one else has them for pre-order.

This is a list showing the pops available for pre-order at Gamestop as someone had asked about them earlier, not the Walgreens exclusives. There still hasn't been any information on what the Walgreens exclusives will be.
