Finally managed to pre-order my Cursed Barbossa! \:D/
Now I'm going to have to wait to see if any of the other pops I want turn up on any UK sites.

Well Im back! Managed to get all the ones I wanted except Gorilla Grood, he was being grabbed like air bottles underwater. So the haul was 13 SDCC's and the 2 GC Star Wars. I also got the BN Mystery Box and a poster again. SO happy I got Killer Croc Exc.! So the day couldnt be any better right? I have to pass our Wally and WG on the way home. Wally was a no go for gold Freddy. Walgreens? OMG, I looked, then asked if they got Green Goblin on Glider in. I was told.....wait for it......"sorry, our Halloween stuff isn't out yet"..........LMAO.......I just left it at that and walked out giggling!

EvilDeadpool wrote:Went to Hottopic this morning. Arrived about 30 min before opening and I was the fifth person waiting inline . The HT employee opened the door and everyone was pushing and acting like animals, I couldn't believe it. People were grabbing five of each it was crazy. I was lucky enough to grab the last Grodd (which was the last of about 20).

Walked downstairs to GameStop where nobody was waiting and picked up doomsday. Apparently NY didn't get any Han Solo or Dr. Stranges in stock so a lot of people left disappointed.

All in all I got 3 out of the 4 I wanted ( no dr. strange). Hopefully I can grab a Goblin tomorrow (probably not though).

Still can't believe how people were acting at hottopic.


What I like about my BN last year was they hand them behind the counter so you had to ask for the ones you wanted, wish HT did this but they seem to care more about the $$$

I managed to grab everything i was wanting! Only ones left are Strange and Goblin and i'll be happy with my sdcc haul. People were a bit ridiculous how they picked 5 of each at HT just because (ugh) and fighting over at gamestop due to being limited to one per style. Oh well, i had a great time... Not really bc i havent slept and goblin goes live tonight :D

Ordered Batman and BB-8 last night, picked up Gorilla Grodd at HT, and False God Superman at GS...but my GS did not get Strange, Han, or Marcus. And I was there when the UPS guy showed up with today's shipment...However they will be in their shipment tomorrow, so at least I know that for sure. The hunt continues!!!

Everything was pretty orderly today at ht but OMG the first two groups of people that were let in bought like half the stock. I only came out with a Vanellope. I wanted Mag but so did the guy behind me so I left it for him. So much for waking up at 5:30, at least there's no one here at GameStop with me. But it doesn't look like they have Dr Strange here either.

My goal was to go to see what GS had in store but they were closed due to a power outage. Stormzilla blew through here yesterday and did some damage. Maybe tomorrow. :)

Sooo, the one thing I wanted from my HT was Mag the Mighty, and when we went in he wasn't there. They hadn't gotten them in their shipment. GameStop was also missing Dr. Strange (not one I want, I just heard the worker on the phone asking where it was), so I asked HT to give me a call if they came in.
Too soon?

Guys, a head's up about False God Supes. I was just in GS at lunch and they had 7 of them. ALL BUT ONE OF THEM had MAJOR paint issues. Several of them had the paint scuffed almost completely off the face, almost like someone dragged it across a sheet of sandpaper before putting it in the box. A couple others had strange paint drips, like they had been sprayed with thinner before the paint dried. I ordered one for my GF online, but when I saw all the damaged ones I nabbed the one good one in case the online order comes in damaged. Be sure you check that one closely before buying!
