Seems they aren't available in their international database. My only hope is somehow having them show up in store.

Pretty much. I have to go pick up a Hot Topic order soon so I'll stop at the only Target within a reasonable distance from me.

Gotta collect all! :cheers:

I just want to have enough to justify turning my room into a museum.

Crazy as it sounds but I walk to buy what I want. And it's not that far, at least to me. For example, I take a left, then a right and keep on walking until I hit the shopping plaza. Depending on traffic, it takes about 15 mins for me to reach them. A great workout, especially with Summer coming up. I'm sweaty...wait, pigs can't sweat, so forget that. :cheers:

Nope. I don't think they're out yet, though. Perhaps I'm wrong.

In Rock Candy news, I'm expecting a few packages later today. And there's definitely at least one Rock Candy coming my way. Will post later with relevant pics! In the meantime, I'm contemplating between heading to Target, or taking the lazy route and ordering the pink and white HQ online while sitting on my behind in a air conditioned room. Choices!

Um, you live in a walking city, whereas she lives in Canada, a market that Target exited. ;-)

With SDCC coming up and rock candys really picking up steam I wonder what/if we'll see any exclusives again this year. It would be the perfect time to do Star War RC, tho with D23 I wonder if we'll see anything star wars at SDCC. Disney princesses would be cool, I dont believe theyv done batman TAS rock candy yet, the world can never have enough Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and Bat girl.
SInce they are testing out male rock candy bring on the endless wave of batman too

Thank you so much for the links! I am so excited about these two

I was nervous that my Target wouldn't get them in, but now I can just get them directly :freddy1:

Star Wars ones would be awesome! I would be all about having a Queen Amidala one.

Amidala and leia both have so many iconic looks they could each get their own waves. You could even do a small rebels wave.

Sooo...

If you're ordering on Target.com, Batgirl and Harley Quinn currently won't trigger free standard shipping due to a system error. I had to send my cart ID to Target Chat and they refunded me the shipping after I placed the order.

So just a head's up that it won't be a quick checkout until they fix that. But you can get the free shipping on $25+.

Postby **Mister Piggy Wiggy** » Thu May 04, 2017 5:05 pm

So, my fellow Funatics, I received not one but two packages from a close friend yesterday. And I took pics, too. Don't worry, I'll keep it relevant.

Imagine my surprise when I got two packages with my name on it. :O

Spoiler: show

Two lovely ladies decided to join me.

Guess who?!

Spoiler: show

Oh, I now have at least 100 Funko Pops now! Don't ever count the lucky Mister Piggy Wiggy out.

A friend told me the checkout process went smoothly.

My checkout for Target went smoothly but I also have the Target credit card so I get free shipping on everything regardless of minimum, so that might be why.

I didn't know you get free shipping with the Target credit card!?! Noice!

Yeah, the Target credit card is a pretty good deal. You also get 5% off every purchase as well (not 5% cashback, just straight up 5% off at the time of your purchase).

Although target kinda mashed the box with an airbag. Lucky I don't keep the boxes for rockcandy.

They are too pretty to lock away in boxes.

I'm the same, but I keep the boxes.

Postby **Mister Piggy Wiggy** » Sat May 06, 2017 10:46 am

I just had a thought. Now that the POP! Yourself app is out, I wonder if there will be a Rock Candy Yourself out? It could happen. But I'd love an proper Funko avatar site instead.

Postby **Mister Piggy Wiggy** » Sat May 06, 2017 11:08 am

I sorta reached a standstill as to what Rock Candies I should pursue. As much as I want to finish the wave one DC Superhero Girls line, aside from Poison Ivy, I haven't seen the other three anywhere. Maybe I should just buy whatever I run into. :cheers:

Did you see my post about GameStop? They're on clearance for $7.97 each.

I saw it. The three closest GameStops near me don't have any in stock.

Iv had this thought before and I cant remember if I said it, but a rock candy of Harley or Ivy from batman TAS would be so cool, since we have the LoC box coming out it would be the perfect place to release one; they could debut deluxe rock candy and do Harley with Bud and Lou (Brian if you're out there). If I dont have to put down for fundays tickets now (iv had all my fingers and toes crossed since Monday) then im going to sub to that box, no matter what they put in its going to be an amazing box if they did a rock candy it would just be a cherry on top.

There's already a classic Harley Quinn, and the Mystery Minis hyena pairs better with her than with the HQ from the same series in terms of scale. I'd rather Funko expand to other characters, especially since there are already five Rock Candy HQs.

Your right classic Harley would be TAS hardly since thats where she got her start #-o

Tho if its one thing Funko has thought me its that you can never have enough batman lol

Well, that's it's own train, lol

. I'm concerned about there being enough support (from both Funko and consumers) for the Rock Candy line and not letting it die the way that the Vinyl Vixens line did.

Btw, found a second hyena while shopping today ($3 at Walmart).

Who is online
