Just seems like no stores by me ever get the newer ones in. Gamestop has the biggest selection but still..mostly the same everywhere. Just wondering if this is like this everywhere...

Same issue here. I cant find them anywhere but GS, and even their selection is tiny!

They all still have GotG, Batman and Marvel but no Hulk, no Spiderman and no Thor. GameStop does have Disney (Boo, Sully, Maleficent).

Have seen nothing new in store. :/

Stores don't seem too eager on them from what I'm gathering here on the forum... Seems odd. Funko has a bunch of new lines coming out soon and someone has to sell them, you'd think. :-k

My local books a million had a ton of superhero dorbz when I last checked. I didn't see any of the Disney ones I wanted though. Barnes and Noble, on the other hand, didn't have that many--in fact, that books a million has way more Funkos in general than the Barnes and Noble.

GameStop printed out a "coming soon" list for me with CW, Fallout, and Finding Dory Dorbz on it, I don't know if that's a sign that they'll actually have them in store though.

Yes and No...

Yes for EBgames (GameStop) and Hot Topic, haven't seen any new ones since before December.

And no as I found new ones at local toy and comic shops.

So it looks like the chain stores are having the issues with stock.

I only see maybe a handful at EB Games (that's GameStop) and SOME at Hot Topic, but I've never seen them anywhere else. Same with Fabrikations and Hikari. Though, to be fair, I don't really go around looking for anything besides Pops as I don't collect any of the other lines.

We have none at my nearest HT...zero! lol My nearest GameStop only has the first wave Marvel, GOTG, and a couple Disney Dorbz. It's pretty desolate around these parts =P~

Same here! I had to order the NBC Dorbz because they never showed up around here. I may have to do the same for the rest.

Not much here either. I think that's because the line isn't very popular yet. Before Pops turned into whatever is going on with them nowadays your best bet was to buy them online from Fugitive or Gemini. It's like that now but change Fugitive and Gemini to Entertainment Earth and Big Bad Toy Store. Managed to get ahold of every Dorbz currently out through them save for a few chases I got from trades. If Dorbz ever blow up the way Pops did they'll be stocked everywhere no doubt.
Do I really look like a guy with a plan?

There has been the same, now dwindling, stock for the last few months.

Im hoping there will be a boom of new stock, until then bless the internet

Zippo here in KC. Trying to find Thor at retail. This is my last weekend before I buy it online. Pirate Deadpool, is the same thing. One more weekend and I'm off to the interwebs.

Considering how many new releases will have a Dorbz line to go with, I'm hoping more and more will show up.

Seems the only way to get new Dorbz is by ordering them online. None of my local stores carry new dorbz anymore.

I just checked the GameStop on he otherside of town, which has a better pop selection, and saw assassins creed and walking dead Dorbz. First time I've been able to see them in the wild.

I think that they don't sell that well, so stores aren't moving there old ones, and in turn are not putting out new ones. The gs and ht around me both have clearance dorbz and my local comic shop was selling them for like 3 bucks and they still couldn't get rid of them.

I have four GameStops, a Hot Topic, and a Barnes and Noble within about ten miles. They all have a bunch of Guardieans of the Galaxy on clearance. None of them have new Dorbz. There is a new local comic shop that does get a small selection of Dorbz every few weeks. They seem to be my best source of Dorbz right now, but they haven't gotten new Disney yet. That's what I'm really looking for right now.

I'm not sure why, but even our local Hot Topics seem to have very few now.

As others said, Gamestop seem to be the best location, but even their sellection seems pretty stagnent and I'm actually getting kind of bummed about it.

Went to gamestop yesterday to try to get some pops. They have the sale for "buy two pops get a Dorb free". Except the only dorbz they have are guardians of the galaxy. I asked if they will get any newer ones and the manager said "yea we don't sell a lot of dorbz. We sell more pops" I said "they have batman vs superman and civil war dorbz coming out. I bet those would sell". And I got a typical shoulder shrug :(
