Joker 2019?

[Cchavez77]

Yep, Ochaco was so easy to get and then Whis caused them to shut down sales. That online release was terrible but I was still able to get one luckily.

You got one online?!

I did, it took refreshing for like 3 hours. Shipped within a few days too if I remember.

Thats awesome man, I don't have the patience for that. I gave up after like 15 mins

[Cchavez77]

I did, it took refreshing for like 3 hours. Shipped within a few days too if I remember.

I remember they had so many masked ochaco...the year before that, metallic beerus was easy to get also. I think I lined up for 5 minutes to get it.

Yeah, whis really was the new standard in terms of what hype can do to a product.

This is true, after that lines started getting crazy everywhere. I remember HBO's line for COTF at NYCC

Yea I remember that too, back when I was a young Funko collector.

[supenman]

Funny how that happens right. Still does too. I remember missed out on Tenya early thinking he’s just a common. I had to pay dearly for that choice.

My condolences to your wallet.

It was tough, but we've slowly recovered since then. The hardest thing is pulling the trigger knowing one day it could possibly restock.

Definitely is hard to gauge a lot of the releases. I'm usually wrong when it comes to predicting if something will be rare or common.

Fortunately I’ve been on both ends of it. I’ve purchased stuff early and it’s gone up so much in value unpredictably. So if guess it cancels out haha.

[Esko5150]

We def need the Joker Stairs Movie Moment. That'd be so cool!

[Killua916]

Yep, Ochaco was so easy to get and then Whis caused them to shut down sales. That online release was terrible but I was still able to get one luckily.

I remeber first collecting and when I saw ochaco thinking she’d be impossible to get. I Ebayed her for $34 I felt so dirty paying so much kmao little did I know

Haha I remember when I thought paying $30 or more was crazy. Look at it now. Haha

I got it from
Chalice when he was an eBay store only now look at him

I can only imagine how bad the physical line was considering how terrible the online release was.

[nightbodega]

ohhhh yea! I mean that Whis pop was awesome tho, what did they really expect haha!

Funny thing is, the year prior, their exclusive was easier to get. You could walk up to the booth. Then the popularity hit and that takes us to the situation for Whis.

I'm glad you could.

I hate saying it, but sometimes you gotta take that route.

So I remember seeing Ochaco and there were a bunch of them out and I didn't grab it because I already had way too much in my hands. I figured since they didn't seem to be popular at the time, I could get it at any point after easily. Boy was I wrong.....

I'll always have that visual of a dozen or so of them just right in front of me.

It's happen to me and I have regret my decision.

That was Ochaco from MHA right? It’s because that shows popularity hadn’t taken off yet. If they did MHA this year might be worse.

That is correct.

[nightbodega]

I agree but also having that huge of a booth and only two registers wasn't very efficient

true on that part. Another register would have been good.

Maybe a row of them , or at least one taking cash as well. That helps move things along.

They still need to record it. Then they run into someone pocketing cash.

I'm glad I watched the show beforehand so I was able to get one with ease.

Lucky you were.

There probably were some shenangians going on. I mean it did go online for a bit

Weird right. Supposedly they ran out at SDCC then all of a sudden. Mystery boxes left over.

I felt like i was the only one that wanted to grab her. I thought since she was "comiccon" i was screwed cuz all I knew of was of Arlia vegeta which was like 2k

Not surprised, a lot of small retailers hold back some of their exclusive stock for other purposes. Happens quite often.

I got it from
Chalice when he was an eBay store only now look at him

haha has his own exclusives now, and DBZ at that.

crazy he has like 4 dbz ones and 1 mha one..nuts

I can only imagine how bad the physical line was considering how terrible the online release was.

The line was crazy and they only had about 200 per day. Then you got what ever they gave you, if there was any damage tough luck.

That being said I hope it is MHA

Not someone walking around taking cash, but a cash only line in order to process those transactions faster.

Yea its crazy how "retail' has risen for pops. 15-20 + shipping seems the norm now.

that was also before the queue which to this point I don't under stand how it works.

I feel like you couldn't even complain about box damage at that point though.

I know plus exclusives with chases as well. Thats the real caveat.

My friend that knows a guy close to chalice told me that he had trouble moving the vegeta chase bundles. The second vegeta bundle he got was even worse . Good with the bad

Yea but if you don't stay on the page, it resets. Sometimes even on the page you will be watching and instead of the number going down it just rises.

Really? They were released in to short of a time span maybe? I mean they really went hard on that DBZ line. I felt bad for DBZ collectors, must of really hurt their wallet.Every con, so many waves and exclusives came out last year.

At least most have been pretty cool. I hate when they get lazy and just made a small change and make it an exclusive.

I just wish they would stop making Vegeta's. There are so many other characters
