Sci-Fi Minis

Great things come in mysterious miniature or pint sized packages, but which great thing will it be? It's all a mystery until you open one. Then the fun begins.

I just ordered two cases from Fugitive Toys and they were nice enough to give me two different case layouts. Then I lucked out and happened to be at Hot Topic when they were unloading their truck. They had two cases of the Sci Fi minis so I bought a case layout I didn't get from Fugitive.

I've been EXTREMELY lucky with the Sci Fi line. I've purchased 15 boxes from various stores, with only two dupes. I was fortunate enough in most instances to get there when the case was fresh. Using the case layouts provided by you fine folks and some educated guessing, here is my tally:

Robocop, Predator (x2), Spock (x2), Alien, E.T., Mal, Robby, Tron, Dredd, Mars Attacks, Metaluna, Clear Predator and Metallic Alien.

Unfortunately, the Metallic Alien is missing his left arm! I've had busted Minis before and just exchanged them at the store. But I've never had a busted variant. I e-mailed Funko on the off chance there is something they might be able to do for me. I guess I'll wait and see. Does anyone here have any experience with their customer service in regards to Minis???

Anyways, I'm likely done buying blind boxes at this point for this series. Of what's left, I really only want the Rocketeer. So, I'll be keeping an eye on ebay :)

Went to my Hot Topic today and they had a bunch, probably a few cases worth. I had to feel them out to find a heavy one that would most likely be a Xenomorph. They also happened to be having a buy 2 get one free sale on everything in the store, so I just got three. My instincts were correct as I ended up getting a metallic Xeno, as well as Judge Dredd and Robbie the Robot

Cool mini finds, all!

I've finally opened one of my TMNT mini boxes and found a black plastic sealed box. Prolonging the mystery. Nice piece, though.

Ended up going to another Hot Topic who were having a Buy one get 50% off everything sale so I got two more along with two Horror figures. Got the clear Predator and the matte black Xenomorph, so now I have both :) Kinda wish I would have gotten the regular or bloody Predator, but whatever he is rarer I guess. These guys at least kept them in box so I knew most of the good figures were on the bottom

Impulsed ordered a 2nd case last night, hope I get a different one. Now I know to buy them at the same time. If it's the same I'm sure someone will want an unopened case easy enough.

Can't seem to find these guys at HT, B&N, Target, or Walmart. I have a lot of comic shops around, but I feel like they are going to be picked through. Suggestions?

If you want to pick from a case to get one figure you'll just have to wait but if you don't mind what ones you get or want to buy a case buy them online

I have bought most of mine through Barnes and Nobles website, they have them for $5.35, spend $25 and get free shipping. I've also picked up a few here and there from a local comic shop. I have almost all of them, The Rocketeer, RoboCop, Alien (regular), Predator, ET, Tron, Judge Dredd, Mal Reynolds, Spock, Robbie the Robot, and a Metaluna Mutant. The only other figure I really want is the Mars Attacks Martian.

This has been my favorite minis series, fantastic figures.

where did you find these at walmart? I was at a few walmarts recently and I didn't see any funko stuff. I was just hoping to find just the Walking Dead MMs, let alone these guys. Either mine don't have them or I was just looking in the wrong place

They're in the same place that they stock all the normal Funko stuff. They're in the trading card section at the front end of the store. You'll see the end of the trading card aisle will usually have shelf space set aside for Pops, Legacy, ReAction, Mystery Minis, Fabrikations, and other assorted cool stuff.
