Anyone seeing a restock on the Tardis ?

hmm... It's a bit hard to explain since I don't want to spoil the movie. It does have some relevance in the movie. It's not a constant "thing" in the movie, but his transparency is a major point in the movie. Plus, I can see it and like you said, it does have some significance to him being an imaginary friend. I understand what Funko was trying to do, but I think a fading version like the Cheshire Cat would be more appropriate.

I hope that helps

I agree with this. The fading version definitely would have made more sense.

that's what i was thinking too.... a fading version would have been cool....or one that is sad (if you've seen the movie, you know why I'd say that)...

Lucky. My HT sold out the first day they got Em and sadly I didn't have extra cash for one. Praying they get more in.

have you tried asking if there's some in the back? I went to my local HT and saw nothing in the front but they had the Tardis in the back, along with Carol from TWD.

I am hoping mine get some this week !

Went into my Hot Topic in North Carolina today to find one unmasked Deathstroke and at least a dozen Daredevils. I only picked up Deathstroke, as he fits in with my Batman collection (used the buy 1 get 1 to order the masked version to the store).

just for future reference, both those deals are exactly the same. So if you really only want 2 Pops, avoid the 3rd to get the "Free" one.

I only say this as I rarely ever go into a HT and find 4 Pops that I actually want

pretty much like how it used to be buy 1 get one 50% off, but the stores in the outlet malls run the buy 2 get 1 free.. it's basically bogo 50% twice.

buy 2 get one free is better than buy one get one half off, assuming you want three pops. buy 3 get one free however is the exact same discount as buy one get one half off, just the wording is different. The outlets are the better choice if you intend on using the discounts to the fullest. if you want three, the buy one get one half off is less of a discount. If you only want two, the buy one get one half off is a better deal. :makeitrain:

Scored my daredevil today! Love him!

Postby **bonnjer** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 7:02 pm

Finally, finally, finally got Daredevil in at my HT. Several trips over the last couple of weeks. Stopped by today thinking it would be another wasted trip...but no, there he was, sitting on the shelf. Quite happy!

Yeah seems like they did a restock of Titan Eren and Rage Hulk. I was happy since I didn't find the Hulk for my friend the first time they were released but I remember Titan Eren being on the shelves forever. Don't know why they would bring that one back.

Postby **themahler** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 7:00 pm

Picked up Unmasked Deathstroke today at the second of two Hot Topic's I frequent. It was hidden amongst the GoT POPs and confirmed as their last one! Apparently it's been a hot commodity around here.

Saw this posted earlier online. SHowing up in stores in Cali apparently.

That looks awesome! I'm not a fan of the show and won't get the POP! for myself but I do appreciate the awesomeness of this piece.

BigM I posted that, found it in OC yesterday. Apparently even the HT employees didn't know of her either, so a true surprise for us OITNB fans.

I stopped in a HT yesterday as I was in the mall anyway, and I was looking for a Pop for my GF. Plenty of Breakfast Club exclusive Pop's and Dr. Who stuff there but nothing I was looking for (no DD's either). I started chatting with the employee (which humorously looked just like the Hot Topic Guy Pop, except with a purple streak in his hair) and he said when the exclusives come in they typically have a line of people waiting for the store to open. He mentioned the purchase limits they've imposed because of the resellers taking advantage (which was mentioned earlier in this thread). He also mentioned that employees are forbidden from buying a new Pop until it's been on the shelf at least a week! So if any of you have dreams of working there so you can score first shot at exclusives- well apparently you don't even get that as a perk.

Just picked up my Ant Man and Daredevil that I ordered online and had shipped to the store. The cashier said that both Ant Man and Daredevil sold out within minutes, which amazed me. Then she said not hard to do when I bought half the case and another worker bought the other half. I guess that rule for employees isn't enforced at all locations. I also asked about the SDCC ones coming out next week, and was told they have 4 master cases in the back. Luckily I have 3 other Hot Topics within about a 45 minute drive. Sucks that this one is only about a 10 minute drive and I will likely never be able to have a shot at anything from there

Just seen on Reddit about a HT exclusive Crazy Eyes holding pie from OITNB, and that this was one that wasn't expected. How often do exclusives come out that we have no idea of before hand?

This d***** on Facebook bought all 25 a store in California had. He went an hour away to get them to. And is selling them for $40. Everytime he makes a sell thread people barrage him and he takes it down lol

. But seriously. That store is wrong for allowing 25 to a single person. And they never put them out obviously since it's in the original case

Makes my blood just boil seeing asshats like this.

Postby **ladyluck** » Thu Jul 02, 2015 12:35 am

I usually call my HT store to see what they have before I drive over. They used to allow me to hold an item so I can drive over and buy it. However, I called today and the guy I usually work with said they're no longer allowing them to put holds on them. I almost wonder if that, plus hopefully soon a limit, will be in place by the July 9th release of the SDCC exclusives to HT?

Ugh, that is just sick and wrong. It's happened a few times in Vegas when I go to the stores, they would say someone bought out the entire case.

Postby **Starsinureyes** » Thu Jul 02, 2015 7:11 am

So is there anyway to know what the current and upcoming HT exclusives are without sifting through nearly 100 pages?
I mean I hate flippers just as much as the next person but that's all I can seem to find on this thread... Stories of local flippers...

well, the brotherhood of steel just went live on ht's website...hopefully this will be out soon, hopefully before sdcc

My HT has a paper sign on the Pop shelf that says limit of 1 SDCC or Comikaze exclusive per customer. It's been there since last summer.

Mine does too! They all should.
