Rock Candy Vinyl Figures!

Postby **Jezter** » Wed Jun 21, 2017 9:59 pm

So, I typically get female superheroes for my 3 year old daughter, but I have to admit, Elvira might be the first one I get for myself. I'll probably keep her in box and put her with my daughter's collection, but not consider Elvira hers. A bit too sexy for a young girl, lol

, but not for me.

I agreed! Can you imagine a chase or variant?

Well, I have been hoping for a Gothic Rock Candy. And it seems like my wish was granted by the Funko Lords & Ladies. <3

But once you know Cassandra Peterson is hiding a massive red bush down there, Elvira's sexual mystique fades away.

That's why I reimagine someone else cosplaying as Elvira.

The red dress version would be awesome. They already made a red dress Pop for Fright Night.

Indeed it would! I just hope the chase/variant will be fairly easy to obtain.

Did y'all see the She Ra Rock Candy announced today? So stoked! She'll look great next to last year's SDCC She-Ra doll!

I really want to get her, but limited to 1250 means my chances are slim.

The video said that but the glam just said Limited Edition. So the question is which one is correct?

I'd lean towards the video being correct (since the glams have been wrong in many cases), but I can sure hope it's shared!

All these limited Rock Candy releases will be the death of me. Maybe I can find someone in PN who doesn't like RC and wouldn't mind buying me a couple XD

I can see limiting a supporting She-Ra character like Sweet Bee or Madame Razz, or even a variant like Galactic She-Ra.

But limiting the most iconic version of a popular character that definitely has more than 1250 fans? I don't jump through hoops for Brian Mariotti, so **** him. My support is gone.

Yeah, kinda bummed at all the Rock Candy limited editions of characters that have seen no standard release. It'd be more understandable if there were one standard release and then an LE with different colors/poses/etc like with Pops.

I sure did. And I'm asking why are the good ones almost always exclusives!? :mad:

So do I. Maybe we'll get lucky.

The word "limited" and "Funko" are my least favorite combination of words. I'm hoping I might find some on stores after SDCC.

Thankfully, she's not an exclusive. Now I just need to get the Pop to go along with this.

Most of us are less than pleased with limited editions with a set amount. Still, we can hope.

I understand your frustration, but look at it from a retail perspective. GameStop put most of their Rock Candy inventory on clearance recently, with the DC Super Hero Girls Bumblebee down to $4.97 within half a year of being released. This means that they sell slowly. It sucks because I like Rock Candy more than any other Funko product and would love to see more.

I think She-Ra looks great, but I would not have gotten it just because she's She-Ra (I only collect DC and primarily Batgirl stuff). My first reaction to the photo was, "Hey, I could pretend it's Hippolyta." If it's really that limited, I'll live.

Btw, thread needs a pic.

Spoiler: show

I knew I was forgetting something! Guess what? I actually found Bumblebee in store. And I bought her, too. Now I wonder if the others will drop in price? :cheers:

As for Batgirl, I'm waiting for my next goodie box for a batty surprise.

Wilma, Betty and Judy Jetson have been revealed for the Pop Up Shop at SDCC. Wilma and Betty aren't numbered pieces so it's possible they will be sold at FYE as revealed.
