However I already said I would keep this one, and if a HT case showed up on ebay then Id order that. Which it hasnt.... D:

That's pretty much my plan, preordered my case from Entertainment Earth, then watch eBay for a Hot Topic case. I'll keep my eyes peeled for you.

Thanks, I will do so for you too

The worst part is the waiting. EE has it listed as Aug release, while Cali has them now T_T

Thank you.

Yeah I just checked the site to see if anything has changed. But maybe with the Mystery Minis starting to show, they will get them sooner too.

Are these displayed in the order you'd find them stacked? So, scarecrow-faced thing bottom row, front-right corner? Girl with bloody dress front row, front-right corner? etc. Trying to find case layouts of these for the second they hit stores

Remember, there are usually multiple layouts, I.E. Case A, Case B, Case C...; not to mention the different HT Exclusive layouts as well. This one case may only get you so far (but thanks punksraven for posting it!).

Funko is all about keeping us on our toes!

A note, the layout is exactly the same as the GOT S2 Cases D, E and F, with regards to the location of the chases... they form a little 'shield' around the bottom-layer, front-left common character. Something to think about when finding a case in the wild.

Thats great info, thanks dave

Postby **missauru** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 8:33 pm

oh and I asked EE about these shipping before Aug. Response:

Thank you for your order and the e-mail. At this time we are simply waiting for Funko, the manufacturer, to stock us with the merchandise. Manufacturers are not able to provide exact dates due to all of the variables involved in the overseas production of these items, and their subsequent delivery to us here in the US. They are listing the merchandise as an "as soon as possible", the most up to date delivery information set for sometime during the month of August. We hope that we will be able to ship the merchandise out as soon as it is available, however this is up to the speed of Funko 's delivery process. Please be aware, all delivery timelines are subject to change at the discretion of the manufacturer.

didnt hurt to ask I suppose? lol

I've cancelled so many EE orders recently because they simply took too long to ship the items... I added my Lo Pan GITD pop with my SDCC PopCultcha order and I know I'll receive it before they ever send one out. I can get Hagrid for less than $10 after Hot Cash, and I cancelled my Snuffleupagus when I had my flocked SDCC one in hand. It baffles me how it takes them so much longer to receive things like this!

Postby **missauru** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 8:57 pm

Yeah theyre the first to have things up for preorder but the last to actually get them in stock

Postby **allonsy_slayergirl** » Tue Jul 14, 2015 12:16 am

It will be so hard to not buy up all the SPN minis online if EE doesn't ship on time!! I preordered my case but the waiting is awful lol

. This is the only mini series I have ever wanted the complete set of.

Postby **missauru** » Tue Jul 14, 2015 12:21 am

Yup this is the first mini set I want to complete as well

!

How do you know which letter case you're looking at?

Postby **saban** » Tue Jul 14, 2015 4:31 am

only 5 more days until hot cash ends. I doubt we'll get these in on time.

Postby **missauru** » Tue Jul 14, 2015 9:54 am

I dont think they will either. Sad.
Oh well, guess I will stop by there and see if theres anything interesting anyway since Ive got more hot cash left over

Postby **BillyLouis** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 2:02 am

The Mystery Minis are in stock on Entertainment Earth!!!!!!!!!!!

Postby **missauru** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 10:51 am

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Now ship out, EE!!!!

Edit: Been charged so should ship soon

Postby **missauru** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 8:12 pm

So I went from anxiously waiting on them getting their stock to anxiously waiting on them shipping it out lol

Postby **missauru** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 9:28 pm

Mine just shipped lol

Now... The waiting game!!

My two cases just shipped also. As much as I wanted them like last week what a wallet hit especially with all the SDCC pops I bought. :makeitrain:

Will post the layouts of my boxes. Knowing my luck both cases will contain the same chases lol

More dupes = more for trading here

Postby **BillyLouis** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 9:50 pm

And, I just received my email notice letting me know my "Supernatural" Mystery Minis have shipped. Woot.

Now hopefully Hot Topics gets them before the Hot Cash ends.

Postby **allonsy_slayergirl** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:02 pm

Got my email, too! I am FLIPPING excited! Now I need to go buy a display case for them

Postby **missauru** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:11 pm

Hey I was just pricing out some display cases too!!

Postby **allonsy_slayergirl** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:12 pm

I will be investing in Michael's shot glass display case. It fits minis well based on pics I've seen from other collectors. Just need to make sure they have enough spaces

Postby **missauru** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:32 pm

Youll have to show us a pic of how they look in that case

Postby **allonsy_slayergirl** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:34 pm

Oh I will, have no fear lol

Postby **missauru** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 11:36 pm

Is it just me or are these cases quite pricey??

Postby **davemoseley** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 12:25 am

Gah, I literally cancelled my order from EE and ordered a full case from eBay for $2 more because I was sick of waiting :p should be here by the weekend... can't wait to see these case layouts! I wonder what brick and mortar stores will see this series, other than HT... I can't see walking into GameStop and seeing an untouched case anytime soon. Maybe BAM?

Postby **saban** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 2:10 am

Fingers crossed that in 4 days Hot Topic will have them.

Postby **Castiel** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 9:06 am

I really want that Gadreel!Sam from the HT case and it's very hard knowing EE has the regular ones already. I doubt they'll put them up on the site before Hot Cash goes away, though.

The retail on them is $59.99 but they almost always have at least a 40% off coupon available. They hold 28 figures, but some of the bigger figs don't fit in the spaces.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 10:02 am

Well worth it (with the coupon)

That would be ideal, but Im not holding my breath for it SW10

That is another concern of mine. The mini figures seem to be getting a little bigger with each new series. Would the disney heroes vs villains ones even fit in said case? Are they wrapped in plastic at michaels? If not I suppose I could just bring in the figure im concerned about and see for mysely if it fits :roflmao:

Edit:
Awesome pic, Marty =D>

They are generally wrapped in plastic, but sometimes there will be an open one.... for this series I'd be surprised if the hellhound or Sam with wings would fit in there, at least not straight on.

I know AC Moore has a similar case where the partitions are removable, but I haven't purchased that one to see what fits in there as it looks like the height on the spaces might be a little low. Michaels has another case with just shelves, but same thing on height in that one, looks a little low.

Postby **missauru** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 10:48 am

Good info, thanks!
I will have to find some time to head to Michaels and scope these out. I think I would like it better if they were just shelves instead of individual compartments cause then I could fit things like Gadreel, and even GoT series 2 dragons on it if I so choose.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 11:01 am

They are shrink-wrapped in store, so no testing there.

I can throw a couple figures of various size in there today after work to give people an idea, if they want me to.

Yes/no?

Postby **missauru** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 11:04 am

I would really appreciate that, Marty!
Would Stitch fit? He is kind of round... stuff like that
