I'm seriously in love with Barnes and Noble right now

Nice score. My store only has left over Disney series 1

On a side note how was Contraband? I am going to watch it this week

It was good. Not as much action as you'd think from the trailer. But it was good.

The Barnes and Noble I went to yesterday had a bunch of Thors, Penguins, Jokers, and Riddler. I didn't know any of these were hard to come by. Oops! Too bad that mall is SO far away, otherwise I'd drive back up and pick some up. On the plus side, I did convince Barnes and Noble to give me their display since I bought the last Disney Pop they had.

Oh man, that Disney display is super cool!

Postby **sphinxie** » Sun Jan 15, 2012 11:04 pm

Hahah, yah! I saw so much! I also saw a riddler, all the star wars, the simpsons, and other random characters. That display is cool, btw!

Clint, I wish you know picked up those Penguins I would have taken them

Mine only has the display at the front of the store and only series 1 Disney. I looked all over the rest of the store, which is pretty big. No Marvel, no DC, no Simpsons. Is there somewhere else in the store these are located that I missed?

My BN had some in the section with board games, puzzles, etc, in a display that said "Collectibles" or something. Then they also had a bunch on a table in a random part of the store that I almost missed. All of the Disney ones were in a display like the one pictured up by the registers.

I did check by the puzzles and games section and in the kid's section. I also combed the place up and down. Still, guess it is possible to have missed something.

It's my understanding that a number of B&N's just underwent a change and some locations added an expanded Toys and Games section. Pops and Wobblers are located in the 'Trends and Collectibles' section. Usually its own little section along with numerous blind box collectibles.

If you type in your zipcode into B&N's website, it says on the far right of the location if they have Toys and Games. Not every location has this new section.

Definitely loving the display. Funny thing is that Sulley, Mike, and Buzz is shown on the display, but after talking to a manager at Barnes and Noble on my trip, he said they never received any in. Go figure.

That's true. I know GameStop does (I've asked for posters and stuff after they're done). I'll have to ask next time I'm in.

Target will not let you due to the display boxes/signs being licensed
