Walgreen Exclusive?

Postby **moresynthplease** » Fri Jan 02, 2015 2:11 pm

I'll make the rounds this weekend and report back. There are a ton of stores here, so I have hope!

Stupid question, but has anyone found these yet? I made the rounds and those that had pops all had a variation of How to Train your Dragons, Walking dead, and Sons of anarchy. And they all seemed like pretty old stock. Wondering if they are still filtering out.

Usually I check ebay before heading to these stores.
not one up yet.

I've looked through a handful of Walgreens locations and found similar to you. I think one safe bet that they aren't out yet is Ebay and Amazon have no sellers that have the items in hand yet.

No pops at all at my local Walgreens. But they have had them in the past so I am not worried

My thoughts exactly. Once they hit shelves, people usually go straight to eBay. Probably won't even start looking around until I see the first set in hand on the Bay.

Checked a few stores, just Dancing Groots.

I called so many Walgreens and finally got one who had a Funko knowledgable employee, she said their Walgreens is expecting a shipment Tuesday so she said call Tuesday night. Detroit area

A shipment of Pop or just a shipment?

Luckily I have a few walgreens near me.

I'm assuming Walgreen's usually has their funkos in the toy section? I checked four Walgreen's within ten miles of my house today. Not one had a single funko item

Excitement sharing always appropriate. I'm dying to find the new stitch pops...

A shipment but she said they were expecting pops soon so could possibly be in that one.

Postby **agentaa** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 12:18 pm

I checked a couple by me only some dancing groots

Will the Spider-Man and Venom exclusives will be available online?

Unlikely. They don't seem to sell much of anything on their website. Only way to get one will be in store.

Postby **wonderful217** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 3:46 pm

I believe it up to each Walgreens on wether they order the Exclusives or not. My wife has a friend who works at a Walgreens who collects Pops also, and she said she has been begging the manager who's in charge of ordering the exclusives like this to order them. Luckily the manager likes to order the exclusive toys so they should get them here, but I'm not counting on the Walgreens who don't have any Pops at all to get them.

Postby **NESSNODDER** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 4:48 pm

FOUND TWO DUCK DYNASTY POPS AND ONE DANCING GROOT WITH DENTED BOX.

Postby **hermster** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 4:54 pm

I just checked 8 walgreens around my home and work, nothing but sons of anarchy and astrids

Postby **JsinLegacy** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 5:02 pm

I checked mine today... just Astrid, Iron Patriot and Nick Fury so far... so hopefully soon ..

Postby **wonderful217** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 5:13 pm

There is now a pre order available on eBay, someone is asking $100 for all 4. The listing says there are 10 available, I guess this guy is confident he will be able to find them lol

I swung by a Walgreens again today and asked when they get shipments, which I was told generally Wednesday and Saturdays. I doubt that's a nationwide delivery schedule, but figure it was worth mentioning. I warned the girl at the register I would be coming by to bug them regularly

Postby **Kastang** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 7:20 pm

The two Walgreens near me don't stock Pops at all but I'm hoping since this is an exclusive Walgreens items that they will be shipping to all stores nationwide. Luckily I have a Walgreens within walking distance of my work so Ill be stalking it daily once they are in the wild.

Went to a walgreens near me today and showed a lady a picture of the walgreens exclusives. She replied yes, we do have those. Walked me over to toys section and handed me a sons of anarchy pop. D'oh!

Postby **zOnesTarX** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 8:53 pm

Lol ^ I will start hunting these when I hear the first person has actually found them, I heard Mid to late January

Postby **jedik6** » Sat Jan 03, 2015 9:12 pm

Yes. This...↑

Haha, the lady at 7-11 showed me remote control helicopters when I asked about Funkos, which are strangely enough right next to the hot dog warming stations.

I may stop by my Walgreens tomorrow after work, it all depends how bad its snow/sleeting when I get out.

Postby **NESSNODDER** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 12:31 am

DIGGING THE LOOK OF VENOM AND THE PUNISHER. NOT DIGGING THE SPIDERMEN. DON'T LIKE THE FLAT FACE LOOK.

Postby **Queen of Marvel** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 1:16 am

There will be more than enough of these! However, I am still excited.

Postby **bertf86** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 8:31 pm

Going by some of the reactions on here regarding locals thinking they will struggle to get their hands on these... How difficult do you think it will be for a UK collector to get their hands on the Punisher & Venom pops?

I think it all depends on how many our Walgreens get and if they continue to get shipments after the initial batches. There are 8,229 Walgreens stores through the US, but not all of them carry Funkos. It would be a lot of speculation until we find out how much actual stock they get.

Postby **bertf86** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 8:47 pm

Yeah Fawk, I suppose you're right. Just going to need to wait & see I guess! Just hate the idea of missing out on exclusives because of where I am situated! Haha

I understand and don't blame you one bit. Even us locals are madly refreshing ebay to look for the first POPs to show up and hounding our local Walgreens. I'll probably end up contributing and helping out folks on the forums if the stores close to me get stocked well. I don't resell things and there are 4 Walgreens near by, and probably 10 within a reasonable driving distance.

I can imagine you all are! That's a decent thing to do man kudos to you!
