Just looking for a heads-up, guys. Which are the Pops that are harder to find right now? With the late distribution that's usual in Mexico, maybe I can catch a couple.

Do you happen to know what stores they sell Pops down there? I have a cousin that lives down there and hopefully can help me pick some up, but I don't know where to tell her to go.

It's kind of hard to find Pops in any specific chain store, but one I have noticed that sells them and has stores around the country is a bookstore called "Gandhi". It's actually a book store, not a comic store, but it has this "hipster" feel to it, and since Pops aren't exactly popular around here, the just HAD to sell them. I even saw a Chase Elvis, that I'm actually considering to buy, just for the mere fact of it being a Chase, maybe I can get a good trade in here.

Other than that, I can only think about comic book stores. I hope that they get to the point in which they will be popular enough to find them at Wal Mart, just like Mighty Muggs had it.

Awww, I can only get The Penguin and The Riddler, but for about 20 bucks =/

It's surprising how much more expensive they are here.

If you find a Chase, and it's at regular price, I highly highly recommend you picking it up! Thanks for the info Choche!

Is the number of chase figures generally the same?
Are they randomly spread around the country in shipments to the toy stores?
