You need 'em all!

Congratulations, and welcome to the family! Couldn't resist saying that. :cheers:

It gets better. Some are on a sort of clearance.

I saw the WW exclusive rock candy at HT yesterday when I was picking up Maleficent. I'm going to have to go back and pick her up, she looks amazing

I saw a couple RCs of WW in her amazon outfit at B&N today. I was very surprised to see them there, considering the only RCs they've ever had are Barbie ones. I bought mine from Amazon cause I assumed I would never see one in a store.

My local HT had a ton of Harry Potter RCs at the front of the store. I had no idea these were out yet. I didn't buy any, since I'm not a Potter fan.

It's great to see more and more RCs pop up in stores, especially since Dorbz have been mostly phased out by stores in my area.

Get it while you can since she's OOS online.

GameStops in my area have lots of the Amazon WW Rock Candy. I'm glad to see a marketing push in conjunction with the movie.

Well technically they were both of our acquisition and I was the one who physically purchased them.

Yes, are a wonderful hubby who picks up Funko products for me

Glad to find more people who love the Rock Candy line like I do! My first RC was Catwoman, and Funko just keeps releasing more great ones! I am not interested in Harry Potter at all, but am very disgruntled that they have added male characters to the RC line. It was marketed as a female line with a feminine aesthetic since they were first announced. Male characters look silly this way, and they already dominate the other lines Funko produces. This one should have been left to the ladies, and I hope Funko won't make any more male RC.

I love the Rocky Candy line, I really do love the scupts, the overall style and the size of them. Even though I think they are great I was determined not to collect them, I have too many lines and things I am collecting already so this was one thing I was determined to stick to. And then I won an Arwen proto at FDO. Well played, Funko gods. Now I at least need to get the Lord of the Rings Rock Candy.

Care to share a pic of that Arwen proto?

Anyone ever seen Hotel Transylvania? Mavis would make a great Rock Candy figure!

I'm getting nervous there aren't going to be any other X-Men ladies. All we've gotten so far is Mystique...
I really want to collect them all for my daughter and don't want to just settle for the random Marvel characters. I just want a few randoms and the rest being X-Men, so pleeeasssseee make and release more X-Ladies soon!!!!

We're in the same boat! Maybe we should a pastry basket to Funko along with a note. On the other hand, SDCC is coming up, so maybe we'll be surprised. Pleasantly.

Found all five HP RCs today. In love with Luna, but the trio is cute and Bellatrix is delightfully evil looking.

I saw the Ripley and LOTR Rock Candies at Dragon's Lair in Austin, TX.

Not really supposed to discuss unannounced stuff here, but I've been looking forward to that last one for awhile. My most wanted RC, and will likely become my favorite RC if designed well.

Part of me is praying for more Rock Candy figures for SDCC, but part of me likes money and doesn't want to wait in line for a wristband lol

Maybe a compromise of having Rock Candy shared exclusives?

Shared is the only way I'll ever get con stuff, I'm just too far away and in the grand scheme too broke to go to one, so getting them in store is my only way. I've been on lists here for those willing to pick up for others, but I'm either too slow or whatever so I never get items that way, haha. Not the end of the world, but I'll always be bummed about the items I miss, so shared is the way to go for me.

But really, I am dying for Rock Candys of Mohawk Storm, Dark Phoenix, Shadowcat and Emma, considering they are the only Pops we have right now. But you know, X-23, Rogue, Jubilee, Lady Deathstrike, Domino would all be nice too. And that's me being nice and not posting a huge list, lol

Finally! I was wondering when Alice was getting her own Rock Candy. Now if only the Disney Princesses got their own Rock Candys! :cheers:

I don't blame you! lol

I like having money in my pocket. And Funko products, too.

That would be swell! That way, we have a chance of finding said exclusives in store.

But how do you get the 10" Groot in your pocket?

Postby **Gothamite** » Wed May 31, 2017 12:39 am

Target is now carrying the Marvel Rock Candies. The packaging is a little different. The boxes are a tad smaller but have hanging holes now.

Postby **HaloHawk87** » Wed May 31, 2017 1:54 am

Wow, that is very weird to see. I wonder if that will be widespread moving forward or if it's just a Target thing. Thanks for the info and pic. I would prefer it if they stuck to the same old box design.

I'm glad I got the non-hanging ones since they can stack now. I can see why they would want the option to hang though, it gives them a little more freedom with shelf space. I wonder if all of them will be going towards that from now on.

I agree with you. Some things shouldn't change. Honestly, I don't like the new design.

The new design seems to take up more space than it saves.
