That being said, GS cancelled the Q-bert POP pre-orders just to have them arrive in stores a month later

Maybe they end up being happy meal toys..you never know :-k

That would be pretty neat if they ended up being happy meal item after all.

These seem destined to be numbered con or funko shop releases. Has there ever been an ad icon that was available elsewhere (besides the target dog and geoffrey)?

Postby **mikechickenhead** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 10:09 am

interested to see where these end up.

There's the Singapore Girl Pop Figure from the Singapore Airlines that's an Ad Icon.

I think we've all been there. If these Mickey D's come out and they look great I would probably try to get some of the better characters like Mayor McCheese and Officer Big Mac.

I've just been really digging a lot of the old wobblers and now that they're making pop counterparts,it seems perfect to get both. I'm hoping these will be obtainable with no issue

Definitely. I hope they look great too.

Picked up my facehugger rick yesterday, I asked about the cancellation of the McDonald pops they said its not official on gamestop end so thats looking good I suppose.

Postby **Nerdfulthingz** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 12:06 pm

Ugh...it is with a heavy heart that I can confirm via my GS that the line has been cancelled! :sad10:

This was sent to me just a minute ago from the manager at my GS...

Postby **lcarus83** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 12:33 pm

Of course these are cancelled. Argh.

Postby **TriFeckTa** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 12:56 pm

That is so unfortunate, a Ronald McDonald would have been awesome

Postby **kdmlvr** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 1:06 pm

I wonder if they are canceled or maybe they will be sold only at mcdonalds

Same, I'm sure they'll do a good job with them, they seem like they would transition well

Hopefully they will do these at a later time or we can get some additional details. I was really looking forward to these guys! Would be great if they still did them at GS but at this point I'll take them where I can get them!

So i paid in full for this pre order. Do i need to go to Gamestop to get a refund?

From the past when I’ve preordered and they didn’t follow through or I canceled the pre-order they’ll refund you but I usually just buy different pops.

Thanks for the heads up. Really bummed. Hopefully I won't have issues getting a fulll refund as right now there isn't anything on my list.

Once again I just hope that maybe down the line these will come out. And maybe they could do mystery pint size icons for Happy Meals :freddy3:

Postby **Ace+ 76** » Fri Mar 09, 2018 5:36 pm

I just confirmed with my local GameStop that my pre-ordered set was cancelled. :mad:

Postby **Chris23tian** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 3:14 am

Well I'm hopeful they release during a Con as an exclusive still. I just want the pops to actually release.

As long as they are shared. If they are in the pop up shop at sdcc I'll have to get my camping gear ready.

Me too, imagine they do a promotion at the store like they did with the Szechuan sauce and the buttermilk chicken tenders. I could see them putting a little McDonald’s exclusive sticker on the box. Hopefully they do something creative like that or at least release them at a con or the funko shop. It would be a shame to see this set go to waste.

Postby **Awsomejose** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 12:50 pm

Really bummed these were cancelled

I wouldn't mind picking all of these up with some McNuggets.

to keep it equal for everyone, McD should make the pops prizes of the Monopoly game.

I got my phone call today, and with a heavy heart transferred the deposits to my other pre-orders ;(

I love that ideal! I was excited to see how the pops turned out I probably wouldn't of grabbed Ronald but mayor McCheese would of been a must, like others I hope these pop up some where else (and not super LE)
on the funnier side I just think of people staying super in box and just putting the whole happy meal on their shelf :roflmao:

Or flippers charging more for "mint" burgers and sodas with up poped tops

So bummed out by this

Postby **FunkQFied** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 9:01 pm

Has this been confirmed??? I saw on Reddit that it hasn't happened yet.

Postby **MiniPop** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 9:21 pm

Sad. I was hoping to get a Grimace. Hopefully we see them actually release in the future.

Postby **akagalar** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 9:26 pm

It's too bad they are not coming out with this now, but with Funko, they may eventually come out with them.

Postby **jarroyo2491** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 10:26 pm

I’m praying these were switch to a different vendor or hopefully released at sdcc. Lol I’m getting way ahead of myself but hopes and dreams :idea:

Postby **Deaf Funko** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 10:34 pm

Man! Can’t believe it’s cancelled.. must be reason maybe McDonalds not like it look possible more ugly ? I want see it please! Lol
