New HT exclusives: Black Lantern Batman and more

Postby **j-phung** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 4:51 pm

Really looking forward to that Assassin's Creed Ezio. It'd be pretty awesome if some exclusives were more variants of the suits that Ezio and Connor wear.

well there's 2 open slots in the games line, between assassin's creed and plants vs. zombies 2... so it's certainly possible that those are both assassin's creed characters in alternate suits.

Helmeted thor will be a hot topic exclusive

Hot Topic really stepping up their game!! Love to see that!

Went by a HT in Austin, Texas and they haven't gotten anything yet. Though the sales guy said they DID receive the email saying they should be getting all this stuff. Did we get any spottings of the HT Harley yet?

Did anyone get specific dates on any of these releases?

Can we get them at $9 instead of $12.50? That's what I would call stepping up their game.

Have we seen a photo of the actual helmeted Thor yet?

No word or sighting of HQ with Mallet. Hipster Ariel is already showing up in stores. I would have went today if I hadn't already been in my last 15 minutes of my lunch break when DC broke the news.

Cool, I hope Funko will make more DC pops from the blackest night story.

Postby **deathlycollector** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:53 pm

My insider said that Harley and Batman should be showing up by Wednesday and the others by the end of next week. Hopefully this ends up being true!

I want that batman so bad! I'm also curious to see their exclusive assassins creed figure.

For some reason it seems that Ariel has hit the East coast first.

This is probably true! My store usually gets their exclusives in weeks after someone announces it! But just called an they just got hipster Ariel in today and they're holding it for me tomorrow!

Postby **djbcshawn** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 6:40 pm

If only they would release a hipster male line, as well. I would love to see Beauty and the Beast hipsters, where Beast has a rat tail and jorts

Can't wait to get the batman and Thor. Hopefully the back of the batman box has some more surprises

Pretty funny how some of the stores don't have them yet. Jake's store in Hagerstown has some but the store in Columbia MD did not. Oh well, she shall arrive soon.

Yeah, Jake's stores NEVER get them first. I was going to go to HT tomorrow anyway to look for the crystal Ponies.

Postby **Cristina** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:08 pm

I called my store and the response was, "How do you even know about that?" She seemed disappointed that I also knew about the other upcoming exclusives...so, none in my part of California yet. Probably next week.

(And she said arrival dates on the new MLP was a mystery)

Yeah the exclusives were meant to be secret. My source sent me a text saying "you didn't get this from me" and then I immediately went to hot topic. I too checked for the new ponies and was told that she had no idea when to expect them . So it seems that your info on the ponies might have been truth!

Lol. So much stuff coming out soon as I'm redoing my budget.

After having no real place to find Pops,I now have at the Valley Mall..Hot Topic,FYE,Journeys,Books-A-Million,Suncoast,and there's a sister store to Books-A-Million called 2nd & Charles in Hagerstown now.Darn,I probably shouldn't have given up my spot,HaHa.I have to drive about 30 minutes to get there,unless I go down Interstate 81,then it takes me only 15 minutes because I don't go under 80mph.

By the way Stacey,did you call the store in Frederick?

What's the big deal if we know about them or not.Once one person finds out,the info spreads like Herpes,not that I would know,HaHa.Apparently some people don't know how rabid Funko collectors are.We are crazier than Beiber fans,and we'll cut you if you try and take our exclusives.

Postby **yoshi** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 8:06 pm

Finally more lantern-related stuff. Sadly, i bet it's only because it's a batman they did it. But so much potential here. I'll have to get it, and stick it next to my custom version. Haha!

I just picked up a helmeted Thor in So. CA. no hipster Ariel yet (the workers knew about that one) and finally picked up my GITD Jack and Sally as well.
