If that is your thing, good for you. Make sure you have some warm clothes and a place to use the bathroom.

How's it going for the drop? I've not done a Funko drop in the wild unless it was online. :freddy3:

I have lined up before but not in a while! I considered it for Gamestop but ultimately decided against it. Maybe if they keep the limited trend at other retailers!

I've slowed down waiting in line since I can score most chases online. Plus where I live resellers make hunting difficult even though they're mostly going for Pokémon now

Last drop I camp/lined up for was for both GS exclusives solo leveling Tusk and Metal Sonic 3.0 pop. it was fun because Pokémon card collectors were there and helped me out with extras and I returned favor and helped them out with extra cards.

I don't remember the last time I lined up for a Pop, but it used to be pretty common for me. The beauty of being salaried at work was always being able to just leave at 9am and make up the time later. I actually think it might have been TargetCon 2023 when I did it last, and I can't see myself doing it anytime soon. I did line up on the 1st for the new Lego releases, but I didn't actually even expect a line since there normally isn't one on release days.

I used to show up at 3am to hot topic for a chase. A few people I know did the same but it got harder once the resellers learned we were doing that
