No the day before the convention (19th) they'll officially announce what stores everything will be at.
And they'll be there for sale on the 20th.

Since the stuff has been shipped to stores already though, employees have leaked what is where
Here is an unofficial list.

Yea online will work for most but I think you're going to have to stay up late....or wake up early.
Of course that all depends on the demand of everything....but I can only imagine Dean is going to be in high demand.
Oh, and who is going to have the Happy Happy Joy Joy pack???

Best strategy - split up with Gina to ensure both Hot Topic and GameStop get covered at the same time. If anyone in your area resells these, it will be a mini Black Friday at the mall.
You know I thought we had resellers in our area but we were the only people there for that bear yesterday.
Meanwhile on reddit we heard about people waiting in line like an hour or two before HT opened so I'm really not even sure anymore.

Still no word on it :rain: :(

I look forward to trading war stories with you on the 20th.

I'm not saying I would stab someone for the Happy Happy Joy Joy 2 pack.....but I wouldn't feel about it if I did.

OMG she looks amazing!

I've put myself on a "no buy" rule until SDCC.
I'm dying inside.

I *had* to use up my hot cash though, right? She now shows out of stock less than 5 minutes after I made the purchase. I really hope I don't get a "sorry, she's not available" email.

Actually no.
As it turns out the codes are technically unique....they are different...but I was able to use one that several people used on reddit.
Strange how that works.

I say used it.....but I'm just sitting here too scared to hit the check out button.

$60 off $120.

Tell your husband I'm sorry.

I guess they don't have them set up for one time use only? I cannot purchase any more until Thursday. I'd have the husband take my wallet away, but I have the numbers memorized.

I realize now I really need to formulate my own strategy. This is all very scary and exciting.

Yea I was going to mention we can work together.

I don't know if you and scrmcasey @scrmcasey are going to be foot soldiers but I'd be willing to pick up and ship out a few things if you guys can't get them but really want them.

Also I broke my "no buy" until SDCC rule, scrmcasey @scrmcasey
Got a lot of the lil bombshells. Don't tell Gina though. I want it to be a surprise :D

Seems overwhelming, but it isn't once you break it down into steps. SDCC exclusives will be out on Thursday.
1. First thing to do, is write a list of the ones you'd like to have. Share it here, so we can help you.
2. By Wednesday, we should have a confirmed list of the retailers that will actually carry the items.
3. Will you be purchasing online, or in store? This is important.
4. Trust your friends to diligently post here as the items you want become available online.

I am more than happy to do this, including after SDCC, for example Grady Twins if they prove difficult to find.

Oh, and you have to share which Bombshells you get - I will be waiting impatiently until you receive them.

I'm on board with this. I have Gamestop and Hot Topic very nearby. I don't have a Super Target near downtown, it's just a regular one but I assume they would have Funkos? Is Walmart a good place to stop by?

Lots of wal-marts have their exclusives out early...even though they aren't supposed to.

What stores you go to depends on what exclusives you want.

Personally it's going to be hot topic, game stop, and barnes and noble for me.
All in the same parking lot. God I love wolfchase.

Here is the unofficial list so far.

Oh, I forgot about Barnes and Noble! That's in the same mall as Hot Topic and Game Stop.

Along with the gamestop flocked CatDog.

Meanwhile, my closest Barnes & Noble is a half hour away. So far I'm going to Hot Topic and GameStop. Toys R Us exclusives are normally online only.
