K-3PO B&N Exclusive gone for good?

[lcarus83]

I have 2 Barnes and Nobles in my city and I swear that I don't think we even got any. I've been there a lot since before SDCC started and have yet to see it. I see them on eBay and of course on PC, but I'm hesitant to pay more than retail price because it seems exclusives often pop up again later on. For example, my B&Ns just got in a bunch of the exclusive GITD Hulks again, which I got a long time ago.

The B&N near me, got in about 30 of them for the summer convention event. They are down to about 8-10 of them the last time I was in there. The one near my work, got 3 for the event, and they were all gone within about 5 seconds of the store being open and they haven't gotten anymore since then. I think possibly it was poor distribution at least in my area.

Mine got in 10 or so for the event. I didn't get one because I just wasn't impressed with it, the head and body are two different shades of white and that really rubbed against my slight OCD tendencies. Anyway they sold all but one in the first day, the remaining one was a little beat up and sat there at least a week. They have not gotten any more in.

B&N employee here. Our system showed for a very long time that the only exclusives we'll keep getting in for a while longer will be Unmasked Cap, Glitter Hair Joy, and Black Out Ant-Man. However, when I checked my system last, we had four K-3POs on order. This may be the last batch, but we're apparently getting a tiny few before they're gone for good.

Flocked Snuffy, on the other hand, isn't even in our system anymore, so don't count on his triumphant return.

Thanks for the update.

Yeah, I'm not sure about K3PO since he is a B&N exclusive and not a Comic Con/Summer Convention exclusive. Wasn't sure how to predict their forecast and I sold my K3PO and Unmasked Capt to a friendly HT worker who was looking for them at cost. I VERY hesitantly returned Dalek Sec because I just didn't really want to get Dr Who pops even though he looked extremely awesome, I liked the color scheme. that's one return I regret, but I also slightly wish I still had the K3PO

That's a bummer. Both stores here had several Snuffleupagus exclusives but no K-3POs. Speaking of which, flocked versions are pretty cool, especially with characters like Snuffy and Wolf Man, but honestly I kinda do like the plastic look as well. Is that weird?

I have yet to see B&N exclusive re-stock. Hot Topic is pretty good at restocking their exclusives over a certain period of time, but B&N I end up just paying ebay prices.

That could mean more will be showing up in stores soon as well.

THanks so much for the email. I wouldn't have seen this without it. Much appreciated.

Your welcome! That's what I figured and I wanted to make sure you got one!
