Just found these at Hot Topic.

Was able to get Kirk at Gamestop today!

These are amazing, however I'm disappointed by the ratios. I picked up a case at Hot Topic and Gamestop and both store's packs show a complete set per case with exclusives. Zoidberg, Marty and Predator with helmet and the the store exclusives show as one per case, however the exclusives are 2 per case and there aren't any of Zoidberg, Marty and Predator (although there is a helmet Predator in the window if you get the whole case). Had I known the packs and glam shots were wrong, I would have just grabbed exclusives and bought a regular case later.

Same! I got a case from GameStop and got 2 of the facehuggers and no clear predator. Lame. Still have to go and find more cases

So excited! Hubby and I got 8 at our Gamestop earlier.. got the Spock we wanted, plus the Kirk exclusive we wanted (Trekkies

) and the Alien Facehugger exclusive!

Sounds like the only one I want (Zoidberg) is gonna be a pain to find.

Postby **Elkkthunder** » Mon Jul 24, 2017 3:55 pm

I grabbed some at Gamestop. Missing Neo and Marty, picked up facehugger and Kirk as trade/sell bait

YESSS! Finally a cool SCI FI one! My gf really likes all the ones in here especially Martian and LeeLoo. Does anyone know if they started showing up in Hot Topic in So Cal yet?

Postby **CorgiKohmander** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 4:05 pm

Can someone send a pic of the insert please?

Postby **BerserkerBlack** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 7:46 pm

Found a full box at my gamestop, since I'm really only looking for predator and Martian, I'm not gonna gamble on these. They all look great tho

I went hunting in some off time from San Diego comic con and found a couple GameStops that have them. 1 brought them out from the back for me

Postby **post31** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 11:07 pm

I went to my local Hot Topic and saw they had the display window ones behind the counter and offered to buy them. The manger said I could have one instead. So I happily grabbed the masked predator.

I was completely going to skip these cause psh are completely taking over all my mini space and I really want the horror and NBC ones coming out, but...
I saw them at GameStop when I was picking up my battle of the bastards 2 pack and let my kid pick a few. The detail is so good, I now want the whole set including an army of martians. The addiction is real!

Postby **MiniDeadpool** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 1:52 pm

I have not seen them at Gamestop yet, I drove down and checked. I might try checking at Hot Topic this week though.

Postby **keyese** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 2:59 pm

I bought a full box at Gamestop yesterday (as we headed home from SDCC) but haven't gotten a chance to open them up yet. I'm hoping we got a full exclusives set after reading what others have posted! I haven't had a chance to check Hot Topic yet, maybe today. There are a couple other avid hunters here in my city so they probably already got to them if the HT got it.

Postby **CorgiKohmander** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 6:35 pm

Bought a case at my local GameStop and pulled the following. Looks like I still need Zoidberg and Marty McFly and the Hot Topic exclusives. Anyone find Marty and Zoidberg in the wild?

Postby **Zero_Mistro** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 7:06 pm

Went to my local gamestop to find some of these and they had them behind the counter all opened. I asked why they opened all the bags and they said they were trying to find a Marty. I was able to pick up clear predator, Martian, Facehugger, and Unmasked predator. I totally forgot to grab the masked predator they had. Still need to get Alien.

Got the same from my box at GameStop. Hoping I can find someone to trade with for the 3 Hot Topic ones and then find the non-exclusives in the wild.

Ahh man I was hoping these wouldn't come out for a while - RIP more of my money lol

Postby **peruwhite** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 5:31 pm

Any sightings of these in IL? Seems none of my HT or gamestop locations has them yet...

Postby **Anniedamonster** » Fri Jul 28, 2017 12:07 am

I love this!

Postby **x56735x** » Fri Jul 28, 2017 1:06 am

seems like zoidberg is the elusive one. I just bought another 5. Neeeed him!!!

Postby **BadEugoogolizer** » Fri Jul 28, 2017 3:35 am

I pulled a Bender! Woooooo!

Just need to find Zoidberg maybe?

They're at Gamestops out in the burbs and I believe the HTs out here had them, too.

Definitely gonna need to make a trip!

Postby **Libertyroxx** » Fri Jul 28, 2017 2:36 pm

Crud, now that I know these are out I have no choice but to hunt them down!

Postby **KnightsOfRey** » Fri Jul 28, 2017 4:52 pm

So it seems pretty much confirmed that the non-exclusive listed as 1/24 on the back of Gamestop packs are, in fact, not available at Gamestop at all, and the Gamestop exclusives are, in fact, available at 1/12 rarity.

Has anyone purchased enough of the Hot Topic exclusives to know if this applies there as well? I assume it must be the same there as well.

As long as at least one or two other retailers get the common boxes, I think this is actually for the best because it means more exclusives out there in the world to be pulled. But in the short term it is incredibly annoying as Gamestop is the only place around me that has them yet.

I really want Bender and Zoidberg, but I am awful at feeling them out in bags. I tried to do it at hot topic for disney and couldnt even pull Genie who should have been the easiest one. I also feel extremely awkward standing at the counter trying to feel them all out and having a huge "No" pile to the side lol

I used to feel awkward too, but not anymore. At some of my usual stores, the employees that know me cheer me on when I pull the ones I wanted.

That Bender is awesome, gotta grab that one.

Postby **mactds** » Fri Jul 28, 2017 7:43 pm

These are great! It took me awhile, but I found the facehugger, kirk, clear predator (luck), spock, locutus, martian, and alien I was looking for.

Postby **post31** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 12:12 am

I got all 3 predators yay!!!!

Postby **x56735x** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 4:43 am

So I found him. I found Zoidberg. He was the only one in a new box of normal SciFi, not from HT or GS. Vendor two boxes and confirmed there was at least one in each. Maybe he doesn't show up on the exclusive boxes? Not sure. Last I need is Marty.

Postby **longlegs** » Mon Jul 31, 2017 9:20 pm

Any one have any luck figuring out which one is the Borg by touch? I've struck out three times so far. Any tips?

I usually find the body and hold it there. Then I run my finger along the head and look for the bumps like on his eye. Other than that, it doesn't have many other distinguishable features.

PS. I re-read that sentence...yah...doesn't sound right...at all... $\:D/$ [-(

Was able to find some at Hot Topic, but a couple were missing. Turns out they were the Benders, so I am on the hunt for him! Just need him, Marty, and Zoidburg to complete the set

Postby **longlegs** » Tue Aug 01, 2017 10:10 pm

Thanks. My skills at that aren't apparently as good as I thought. At least the staff at Gamestop have been cool about me going through all the packs.

Postby **Lilbrimer23** » Tue Aug 01, 2017 10:23 pm

Found the ht exclusives tonight! Had to have bender. Now just missing Marty and Zoidberg.

Postby **nerdandcheese** » Tue Aug 01, 2017 10:26 pm

Man, I haven't seen these in a store yet. I need that Martian!
