Yay! I'm glad you found them. I would love to find another set to give as a gift, but I don' think I can take another month of stalking Walgreens !

I know right and thank you! Too many Walgreens visited in the last month and then to try and get lucky again I don't think I can handle being a Walgreen stalker

Ya I don't recommend it! ;-)

The Walgreens that normally has exclusives failed me tonight. Probably will have to just wait for the wide release.

Since I got my set last week Ive been in several WG. absolutely nothing left! Ive gotten no less than 5 people hooked on Pops, and when they saw mine freaked. I had hoped to find a few for them. HA!

Bought Snoopy yesterday. Returning do to paint job and being an impulse purchase. I'd prefer a version of him with the goggles down. :razz:

Still?

they've been in stores a while now, I've given up finding them until wider release. Maybe that's not the way to do it!

I've never found them in NYC! Is it in the toy section or with the seasonal stuff? I'm gonna run to my local Walgreens again this morning... I want these for HALLOWEEN decorations!

In 2 of the 3 stores I visited they were still unboxing and setting up their halloween display. So just depends on how fast the individual store is rolling out their halloween section.

I cant really picture this "wider" release. My intuition says nope. I spoke to the owner of our Pop store at our mall. She says no offering in her Funko order catalog. So if store cant/havent ordered, its just too late for a Halloween item. Our WG and Walmart are at least 2/3 trashed of Halloween stuff already. Also, I got my set of 4 the very morning they were put out, weeks ago. Ive kept looking though as a few friends want Lucy so bad. My WG never refilled the shelf slot. So confusing!

I've seen them in the Halloween aisle, but I've also seen them on an end cap that just had Peanuts Halloween stuff on it.

Hmmmm. Ok maybe i just missed it.

I've only seen them on an end cap like that in one store. The other 2 stores where I saw them, they were in the Halloween aisle. The end cap in those 2 stores had The Nightmare Before Christmas stuff for Halloween, including Pops.

Just sitting here waiting for the Pops to show up in more places...

I hate Walgreens so much when it comes to these things.

I just need Ghost Charlie.

If anyone co,es across an extra Snoopy, I could really use some help finding one.

Postby **Wakko** » Sat Sep 24, 2016 11:58 am

My wife and I don't have any Walgreens near us, BUT we're currently on vacation with two nearby Walgreens. The first one had nada -- not even any Halloween decorations. But the second one had them, and amidst the dozen or so masked Charlie Browns and Snoopies was a single Lucy and Ghost Charlie Brown, the two I wanted. Score!

yeah... does anybody know if there's any info that has leaked about when they'll go wide? I've tried three Walgreens within reasonable distance and I've only seen Snoopy and masked Charlie Brown at the one in my town and same at another (who had about 3 times as many as mine) and the third had none at all. I want them and will get them whenever, but I'd prefer to have a Halloween themed Pop before Halloween lol

Don't give up. After weeks of hunting I finally found the Lucy and ghost Charlie this past week. So now I have a complete set!

Different stores or the same ones you've been trying?

Postby **treswright** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 8:48 am

Has anyone in the DFW area found a store that has some in stock? I'm not having any luck. Would appreciate any leads :-)

Postby **Dogmatic** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 9:32 pm

Walgreens in Duncanville has all of them right this second, except for this Witch Lucy I'm buyin'.

I have been lurking on this thread, dreading the moment I caved and starting hunting for this set -- I grew up w/the Great Pumpkin Halloween special and would love to connect to that memory with the Great Pumpkin Pop's on the shelf.

Randomly looked for the first time tonight at a local Walgreens and got lucky in the Halloween aisle.

Postby **RiaRoo** » Wed Sep 28, 2016 2:45 am

I'm having the worst luck with these! If anyone can get a spare ghost charlie brown and snoopy I would gladly buy them from you! [-o<

Ran into a strange phenomenon with these today. I saw these on the shelf in my closest Walgreens weeks ago. The 3 Snoopys and the 3 Charlie Browns have been sitting there this entire time (Lucy and Ghost Charlie disappeared quick). Nobody had touched them, it seemed. I was in there at around 6:30pm yesterday and they were all still there. I stopped back in there at around 11:00pm and all of them were gone. They've been there for weeks without being touched, and suddenly in those 4ish hours, they all disappeared. I found this to be quite weird. Probably just me, though. lol

Postby **rdgmjv11** » Wed Sep 28, 2016 5:48 am

Are any Walgreens actually going to restock these? I've been to two that have sold them all and removed the pricetag entirely.

I hate Walgreens Pops.

Don't think so. When I asked at the ones I went to, they said "What we put out is what we got" kind of thing, and acted like that was it (which is probably why they were delivered the way they were with the 3-3-1-1 ratio.

Why not just wait until they come out to other sellers? These aren't Walgreen exclusives, just first to market....

I just saw 2 snoopy's yesterday. I can stop by again today and snag you one.

I'm also getting a bad vibe that these might not be restocked (also according to walgreens employees), and also might not show up at other retailers (could be totally wrong though).

Postby **Libertyroxx** » Wed Sep 28, 2016 1:21 pm

I gave up and bought them from a guy in a facebook group I'm in for a pretty reasonable amount. If there's going to be a wide release hopefully it's soon since October is nigh.

Displaying these for Halloween is the best; I like most of my Pops in the box, but these must be free all October long.

It's the end of September, and there's been no sign of them coming to other retailers. They're a Halloween item, which means (at least I would think) they'd be out everywhere by now. Not really convinced they're coming to other retailers.

I said this weeks ago. The action figure store at our mall is unable to order these from Funko.
