Exclusive Hot Topic Jack Skellington Glow in the Dark Dorbz

[thejosh2010]

Am I the only one who checks for this daily! LOL. I'm losing hope. The Pumpkin Jack (Specialty Figure) got pushed to Nov. Original release was aimed for Oct. So I'm hoping the HT exclusive will be released within the next month.

I check on him a few times a day if I remember. I'm losing hope as well, hopefully we don't miss him. I doubt he will go on sale during the buy 2 get 1 free sale.

I MUST have this!! Hopeful I don't miss it when it goes live!!

Nope. I've checked so many times I lost track a while ago.

I'm sure they won't go up until after this sale is over.

[NightmareMermaid]

Or maybe they'll just wait and release it for Halloween. They are so past the original release date that they might as well at this point.

When you look at the sticker on the Dorbz, how it says "limited edition" not "hot topic exclusive" or "hot topic exclusive pre-release"; I have only seen stickers like that on the mystery funkos (not the minis, but the Marvel (Deadpool x 2), DC, Fallout, mystery Marvel Pocket Pops, and most recently the Horror mystery Pops!). It makes me wonder if they are going to be doing a Nightmare Before Christmas Mystery Dorbz Box? Just thinking because like the masked Alex Delarge from A Clockwork Orange initially the pics leaked onto the web and everyone thought it would just be an in-store exclusive, but it was the chase figure in the Horror Mystery Pop series. But I haven't been Funko hunting for too long, so it may be a flawed observation. Also I feel comfortable that I haven't missed it yet, because I have not found any on eBay for sale. =)

That "limited edition" sticker also showed up on the metallic Maleficent Dorbz. That's how they distinguish between the regular exclusives and the ones that will just be available in limited quantities.

It does seem strange that they wouldn't try to get this one out in time for Halloween.

When is this coming out!????????

[PopGoestheJess]

When is this coming out!????????

When you least expect it.

I really hate HT for doing this to us. If they delayed it, they could have had Nerdette say so instead of stringing us along.

[babasdada]

I'm definitely going to miss this.... LOL

I completely agree. This is so far past the date it's ridiculous. They really need to say something about the release. So many of us have wasted so much time checking the site waiting for it to go up.

HT just revealed on Periscope that the GitD Jack Dorbz is no longer a 1,500 piece exclusive!

Instead, it's going to be part of a NBC Mystery Box ($24.50 retail) that should drop at all stores in the 2nd or 3rd week of November. The box will contain:

Spoiler: show

- GitD Jack Dorbz
- GitD Sally Pop Keychain
- Oogie Boogie Pop with a new mold and a more burlap looking color.

All of the items are sold only through the NBC Mystery Box, they're all HT Exclusives, and the count will be higher than 1,500.

Video can be seen here (NBC Mystery Box starts around 7:04): https://www.periscope.tv/HotTopic/1OdKrNdVaVlKX#

[NightmareMermaid]

I'm so glad this is not limited. I got to see this just before I lost cell service when I went into a tunnel.

It would have been nice to have been told sooner though.

[groundhog7s]

I never understand where the mystery is when they tell us what's inside.

[NightmareMermaid]

Here are some pics. Sorry for the crappy quality. It can't be helped with Periscope.

Thanks so much for sharing! So glad to finally have some clarity on the jack Dorbz!

[RogueSolo]

Agreed! Just tell us it's an NBC themed collectors box and we won't complain as much

[PopGoestheJess]

It's a gift box if we know what's in it. Lol

[jinxykat]

I can't wait for this!!!

[squidward]

This is great. My daughter loves NBC. This will be a perfect Christmas gift.

[Kaljor]

It is still limited, just not as limited as before.

[synergy56]

Well thank goodness. Now I can turn off the web update alert on my phone and stop the battery draining! Glad that this now won't be quite so hard to find, but kinda bummed you'll have to buy other stuff with it.

[CaseyJones14]

Oh man what a relief! The suspense is finally over!!

[HowardTheDuck]

I need that box just for the Oogie but will probably keep the Jack Dorbz.

[Blake85]

Just want that oogie!!!!

[RogueSolo]

Just want that oogie!!!!

I'll take Jack off your hands if either one of you want to split a box.

[HowardTheDuck]

Since I am (without knowing for a while at first) a Jack collector I think I'll just keep him.

[Arloe8]

Glad he is no longer limited but do I need another box. Glad we have a complete set of NBC GITD keychains. Now just more GITD Dorbz

I meant a specific number limited.

[lovemypops!]

I hope they put in online also.

[Picmahweji]

yes!!!!!!!

There is a specific number, we just don't know it.

[PopGoestheJess]

Might just wait and see if a couple of Jacks end up on ebay.

[Battastic]

Great....now I need the whole box

[emk194]

I only wanted the Dorbz, so I'll either check eBay afterwards or just pass on this.

[treswright]

I wonder why the new Oogie mold, the old one was a pretty good mold. This one doesn't really look a lot different from what I can tell in the Periscope feed. Looks like he's holding something in his right hand that's new, and he doesn't have the dice in his left hand. But his expression and all looks the same.

[vellybelly]

Thank you for the information on the Jack Dorbz everyone!
