Awesome! Hope that means Hot Topic gets them soon. They seem like they get stuff pretty early anymore.

So my preorder at BBTS is showing as paid. It should be processed and ready to ship today or tomorrow
**UPDATE** Shipped today (1/22/16)

They have now been sighted on ebay...they are out in the wild!

Saw someone selling them on Facebook. Three gamestop exclusives are mr freeze, joker with card, and blue batman

Not my image, but replaces Harley, Scarecrow and Red Hood...

Damn... was tempted to get a case from Gamestop but after trying to hunt down the Fallout non-exclusives last time, not sure I want to fight with everyone looking for Harley when I can just grab a case from EE... plus annoying there are four Batmans and 2 Jokers. And I loved Scarecrow's sculpt.

Think I might stick with Hot Topic on these, going to be considerably cheaper buying a case there than at GS.

Those look pretty cool, but I'm just glad I can avoid the mystery mini urges lol

I was planning on not getting these, but I think I have to have Mr. freeze.

Postby **davemoseley** » Sat Jan 23, 2016 3:29 pm

From photos, he looks to be the biggest - and easiest to find in a case!

Postby **Bob** » Sat Jan 23, 2016 5:55 pm

I saw an untouched case at GameStop today. I bought four.

Top row

Back

X X
Catwoman Arkham Knight
Mr. Freeze Joker w/card

Front

Mr. Freeze is noticeably larger and heavier.

So where did Harley, Scarecrow and Red Hood go?

Postby **RogueSolo** » Sun Jan 24, 2016 4:34 pm

They'll be in any case sold not at GameStop.

Ah, alright, that makes sense. Thank you.

Gamestop has a buy one get half off sale, which may make it tempting to buy the case.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Mon Jan 25, 2016 10:08 am

Not showing in stock on GS's website, but I'll swing by the mall today to see if they have any in stock there.

The GS sale definitely helps; if you take off the discounts (B1G1 50% + $10/$40)for buying a case at HT, it's almost $20 cheaper than buying a case at full price at GS. With GS's sale however, that knocks the case price down $15 less than HT's price.

On Minis? I know they have this on the Pops, didn't see any signage about other figures though. Some of the older series (GOT, Blizzard) are on clearance.

That makes my decision to get a case from GS a no-brainer if true.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Mon Jan 25, 2016 10:14 am

The weekly circular on GS's website only mentions Pop!s as BOGO. I guess it depends on how each store interprets the sale if they'll apply it to minis as well.

Postby **Battastic** » Mon Jan 25, 2016 12:11 pm

Well I thought I escaped the hunt by ordering a case from BBTS, now I have to track down the 3 GS exclusives. Let's hope HT doesn't get their normal mystery mini exclusives as well lol

I found a fresh case at GameStop today and grabbed six. Just wanted to confirm that the case I found had the same layout. I grabbed Mr. Freeze, GS exclusive Joker and Catwoman all from the same spots. And Mr. Freeze is REALLY heavy in comparison to the others...he'll be a safe bet for all you box shakers out there. I tried my luck with three from the bottom row and got two normal Batmans and Robin. Oh...and the GameStop I went to was not having a BOGO on mystery minis.

Stopped in to GS yesterday, nothing new as of yet.

Postby **HavokAndChaos** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 9:58 am

Glad to hear Freeze is heavy, he's the only GS exclusive I want

Postby **jester00** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 11:12 am

These are so tempting. I'm trying to stay away from minis though and focus on pops and dorbz

Postby **Battastic** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 12:43 pm

So I checked a few gamestops in my area...nothing yet. On a side note, my pre-ordered case from BBTS will be here Thursday. I will post the case layout when it comes in.

Postby **davemoseley** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 3:25 pm

Any idea where blue Batman is in a GS case yet?

Postby **Codfac** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 3:54 pm

I can't wait for these and to see a case layout as I'm only really interested in Harley, ivy, catwoman, robin , and nightwing and maybe freeze

Postby **BillyLouis** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 4:11 pm

I snagged three Arkham minis at Gamestop today, and I got two exclusives:

And, yes the Freeze is the heaviest in the case.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 4:19 pm

Did you find excl. Blue Bats where others have found excl. Joker?

Postby **Bob** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 4:41 pm

My guess is it's one of the back two on the top row, but I am curious, too.

Postby **BillyLouis** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 5:05 pm

I am sorry guys I don't recall which spots I pulled any of them from.

No problem. We're just curious...and nosy.

That sale only applies to POP!s. I wish it was on minis, because I would have possibly bought the case.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 5:39 pm

Another day, another strike out.

Postby **Blake85** » Tue Jan 26, 2016 5:56 pm

Love these. Must buy a case at gamestop

Postby **davemoseley** » Wed Jan 27, 2016 1:43 am

Picked up the front two boxes from a Gamestop case today... my case was reversed, Joker with Card on the left front, Freeze on the right front. Not sure if the rest of the case was flipped since I only got those two. Seems like a safe bet now that the front two will yield those exclusives.

Postby **Battastic** » Wed Jan 27, 2016 11:49 am

Checked 3 Gamestops during my lunch break....nothing yet

Postby **bobbledude83** » Thu Jan 28, 2016 8:21 am

My Gamestop had these behind the counter yesterday.... she just hadn't put them out yet... picked up 4... Joker, Ivy, Catwoman and Arkham Knight..... these are really nice

Postby **Pobble** » Thu Jan 28, 2016 7:34 pm

Found a case at GameStop today. Bought the top front two and the two bottom center,s this is what i got. Freeze and Joker were on the top front and the two Batmen were the bottom centers. Sorry guys, the boxes got jumbled so I'm not sure who was on the left and who was on the right. As others have said, Freeze is heavy and should be an easy pull.

Postby **Battastic** » Thu Jan 28, 2016 7:50 pm

Got my case today, not from gamestop. I can't seem to load pics from my phone, but I'll post the case layout tomorrow

Postby **Warren8525** » Fri Jan 29, 2016 12:13 am

Postby **Battastic** » Fri Jan 29, 2016 8:16 am
