Ugh, now all I can think about is how I want Carrie and the twins. This is a bad hobby for someone with an obsessive personality like me.

Thanks for ruining my life, everyone. :p

Where do you guys usually preorder online? I really want the Shining ones, even if I can't get the chases.

Doesn't include the twins but this is a pretty ok deal imo.

Personally I haven't pre-ordered anything yet outside of store exclusives.
Better to go with Toy Wars - comes to $56 with discount code SHINING20, but free shipping.

I knew you would have a better deal for us. :love:
Just wish I could help with the Target exclusives. Just got home from the mountains and feeling disoriented. Will have to add things to my wishlist and formulate my Funko game plan tomorrow.

My Funko game plan consists of trying to figure out how I'm going to knock out a couple $200 days on here next week.
First SDCC, now like 100 new horror things....my god.....get out of my wallet!

I need a personal shopper to find them for me. I guess that's called eBay though.
I keep hearing people say look behind the electronics counter for the employee's secret stash.
I even saw someone on reddit post a picture of 3 chases sitting back there tucked away lol.
I'm going to start doing that every where I go.....before I then get in to fights and eventually banned from stores.

So yea maybe your idea was better.

The problem is that Funko now has the stores place policies preventing the employees from buying them. They are supposed to be put them out on the floor so that they are fair game. Clearly, this isn't happening and it causes a lot of angry collectors.

Meanwhile, there are good folks like you and Gina who left Chases on the floor and took only what you needed at Hot Topic today.

And then regretted it because I glanced and there are auctions at $50 for it on ebay right now hahaha.

But nah I mean, it took me this long to find a chase in the wild. It would have been awful karma if I snatched those all up.

Vanyanka @Vanyanka C to the J @C to the J

This should be helpful for trying to hunt down the Grady Twins in August:

http://brickseek.com/target-inventory-checker/?sku=323-01-0714

Just put your zip code in at the top and make sure 323-01-0714 is listed as the DCPI. It will show which stores close to you have the twins (but won't tell apart the chases)
I have zero faith in our local Targets.
Our Super Target had like 6 pops last time we were there.

Really hoping they available online. :rain:

Seeing some of these people's collections on Reddit is impressive
You should see scrmcasey @scrmcasey's
I know she has a lot but she's only showed is the Harleys so far.

My side of the bed:



Gina's side:



And then we have like another 25 pops in the living room.
Going to get some shelving built out there soon because we want to move everything out there before the baby gets here.

Mine aren't properly organized for the most part. Did you buy or build the shelves that your minis are on?
