Anyone notice the sticker over the UPC that says Yondu glow on the dark?

Postby **haastyle** » Wed May 17, 2017 11:01 am

I didn't order when I had the chance, saw the movie & now I need him.
The struggles are real, congrats to those who got one!

I guess I'm going to have to go to ebay and order....I want him

Postby **slim1977** » Wed May 17, 2017 9:31 pm

I can confirm that Yondu does glow.

I really regret not getting this one now. I hope if he gets a new Pop that the fin on that glows too.

Wow, this is awesome! I wish my Yondu would glow like this!

Wow, I didn't expect him to glow!!! Wish I wasn't in the middle of studying for a Physics exam when he released online. Totally missed out and so bummed!!

Postby **Tynett** » Thu May 18, 2017 2:01 am

I'm so jealous right now. He's awesome!

Postby **Eloy** » Thu May 18, 2017 4:00 am

Yep, mine glows too. weird that no one has mentioned it. When i first saw the sticker on the upc, i thought maybe it was an error, or maybe it was supposed to glow instead of being metallic originally, or maybe it was for a future exclusive. then i looked at the receipt and saw it said glow too.

I saw that too and figured it was a mistake. They said Booberry glowed too, but it doesn't. Interesting, I never even bothered to check my Yondu! Will do that tonight :-)

Oh wow!

That is really interesting, but pretty awesome that there is a glow.

Postby **Funko_Don** » Thu May 18, 2017 11:14 am

Wow, just got mine yesterday and didn't even realize! BONUS!

Postby **Rickakatuna** » Thu May 18, 2017 11:44 am

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive. Got it shipped to store. Bad move on my part

Postby **jagpop** » Thu May 18, 2017 11:56 am

I got mine yesterday and finally opened the box today. The finish on Yondu is amazing!

Postby **valorandvellum** » Thu May 18, 2017 2:32 pm

Whaaaaaaaat, he glows?? What a pleasant surprise! lol

I was planning on picking up my shipment from the store tomorrow after work. Now I can't wait to try it out!

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Thu May 18, 2017 4:11 pm

IT GLOWS?????????????????????????????????????????????

Postby **slim1977** » Thu May 18, 2017 7:16 pm

It has to come out of the box to glow. I tried in box and it was very faint.

Postby **swind15** » Thu May 18, 2017 9:20 pm

I tried mine and he does glow! Such an awesome exclusive of a great character.

Postby **Nikeboi916** » Fri May 19, 2017 2:44 am

Just got it today, he looks so sick!! Now I want Michael Rooker to sign it now!!

Postby **JimmyD** » Fri May 19, 2017 3:56 am

The glow is really cool! I am happy that I got one now. I was hesitant on it at first.

Postby **Imagery** » Fri May 19, 2017 6:46 am

Super jealous. Can't believe he's metallic AND he glows. I hope I'm still able to get one at some point. Thanks for posting the cool pic slim

OMG! OOOO. MMMMM. GGGG!

*dies from happiness at this glow news*

Do not grieve for this Grandpa. He is in glow heaven, eternal in the light!

Postby **Mister Piggy Wiggy** » Fri May 19, 2017 11:27 am

I have the reg Yondu Dorbz. But I guess I might as well try to get this particular one.

Postby **treswright** » Fri May 19, 2017 1:58 pm

OK so I checked mine last night. First I put him under the fluorescent black light and he does not activate AT ALL (usually anything that glows activates brightly under black light). Then I took him in a dark room, nothing. I was thinking maybe all of them don't glow at that point. I have that bat case that's lined with UV LEDs so next I pulled one of the glowie Pops out and stuck him in there. Again, did not activate one bit. Next I took him into a dark room again and.... yeah OK there's a very, very faint glow. Next I tried him under regular LEDs for a minute, turned them off and again, very faint glow. So yeah his fin does glow but it is nothing to get excited about!

Here are pics I posted on IG with lights on and off:

Aw, that's kind of a bummer. I'm still gonna test it out tonight once I pick mine up from the store. I guess that explains why there isn't a GITD sticker on the box. A tiny bit of glow is still a nice bonus though :tongue:

Postby **rexflexall** » Fri May 19, 2017 3:14 pm

Argh I missed out on the online order!

Maybe post in the WTB section. Sometimes people buy extras to help out other Funatics. I bought an extra but mine is spoken for already.

Postby **pd13159** » Sat May 20, 2017 2:44 pm

Did this ever get a UK release? I know I got my pre-order on the Jafar through FPI but never saw this go up for order anywhere? Cheers

I admit that mine doesn't retain glow very long, but I feel like it has a pretty good glow after a good dosing with my blacklight led.

Led on and then in the dark.

I'm still hoping to catch on a restock for this. I missed the one that was a few days ago. I'm not that hopeful since it's a numbered piece.

Postby **TornadoJoes** » Mon May 22, 2017 3:36 pm

Me too. Been calling every few days to my local Hot Topic.

Postby **repair-manmanmanman** » Mon May 22, 2017 7:37 pm

I definitely regret not picking this up when it went live. I stared at it for a few minutes then decided not to since I don't really collect dorbz. So much ragrets..

Postby **hikanteki** » Mon May 22, 2017 9:28 pm

Looks like mine just arrived at Hot Topic! Excited to stop by and pick up Yondu (and the Cat)
