I could be wrong but with only 4 posts, I don't think you're allowed to discuss trades in this forum

Regarding your ethnical dilemma, I don't see an issue trading a chase you find in the wild or selling it for a profit. If you clean out a shelf and travel store to store and then sell them that in my opinion is where ethics become questionable. Personally I don't see a large difference in selling a POP you find in the wild shortly after finding it or sitting on it and waiting for its value to increase before selling or trading it. Just my 2 cents.

It's already a 1:36 for international vendors (PopCultcha, Forbidden Planet) so I have no idea where this whole 1:6 ratio came from. I think Steve Anne was talking out his anus on that one. Green Goblin is OOS everywhere. PopCultcha won't get any back in until May. All sold out here in the US. That means waiting on stock to come in on the slow boat from China. Funko did not anticipate this kind of response apparently.

This was first pop I ever bought for myself. My local Walgreens had a total of three pops. I went in looking for Deadpool with weapons and Taskmaster. They only had two Deadpool's with rubber chicken. As well as a Green Goblin. I wasn't paying attention and grabbed Green Goblin. It wasn't until I had POP home and was looking at it did I realize it was the Chase(metallic) version of POP. $9.99 for Chase is a great deal and I was ecstatic. $\:D/$ $\:D/$ $\:D/$

Hilarious that you didn't even notice until you got home. Congrats!

Hate to be the bearer of bad news guys, but you better start checking every Walgreens. I was just making a delivery to a Walgreens I had not been to in a while and was pretty sure they were out of stock. They had one each of both Iron Spider and GITD Black Suit on the shelf. Right then and there I whipped out my smart phone, checked the inventory tracker and sure enough, it said that store was out of stock. Could be an isolated incident...could be a wide-spread problem.

GG chase has hit the mid-west, I personally saw around 25-30 today in my travels. Only grabbed 2, I will give other locals a few days until I get more.

I have been looking for black suit Spider-Man for about a month now. Still no sign of gitd yoda

I have an extra if you are interested. I'd have to check the box condition. I think it was in good shape, but I can't recall for sure. Cost, plus shipping and fees. Probably around $15 shipped, depending on where it's being shipped to. PM me if you want it.

If that other user doesn't pan out, I got mine from popcultcha a month ago. I also saw aroun 5-6 of the gitd spidy yesterday. PM me early today if you really need one as I may stop back it that store today.

I have a gitd yoda. I'd have to check the box as well.

I found a chase goblin too and didnt notice til i got home either that he was actually a chase too! What are the odds! Although today during my travels i saw about 50 of these so only got 48 for me and my collector buddies. I will give the locals 24hrs to get the remaining 2 pops before I go back and clear it out. I love this place

Haven't seen any of the new exclusives in Atlanta. Have seen a bunch of the rubber chicken deadpool though.

Postby **Prateek0** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 12:04 am

Well I found 51! I bought all of them because I'm rich! I'm just going to put them in a big pile and jump right into them! LOL

25-30 chases? Some stores haven't even gotten 1...or even any shipment of the new Marvel for that matter.

My area just got their first shipment which looks to be super heavy on the GG chase. I have yet to see a deadpool though, the distribution system is terrible to be this slow.

I live in Michigan and the only ones we have been able to find are Iron Spider-Man and GITD Black Suit Spider-Man...along with probably 75 Deadpool. We go out looking pretty much every week. I love going Pop! hunting but this is ridiculous lol

I finally found a green goblin (not chase one) and a taskmaster. Still hate Walgreens though

Postby **Poldyman** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 12:32 pm

He asks if i am kidding... Bahaha Well, the time is up for the locals! i will get the 2 chase Goblins that I purposely left out of the 50 i encountered during my travels through the midwest region and the pacific outer rim, now i might only notice that they are chases when i get home of course

treswright wrote:that many in one auction just seems VERY suspicious. I mean we have dozens if not hundreds of Funatics out hitting stores daily looking for these and the lucky people find one, the VERY lucky people might find two. But 14? Unheard of.

It's not unheard of and is entirely possible.

The distribution on these Goblin chases was a terrible. I've posted here and in a couple other threads about how when these first starting hitting last month that a friend of mine found 14 Goblin chases in a 24 hour period and only had to go to 4 different Walgreens to get them all. It's not like there was any actual hunting involved. He found 2 at one store before they closed. Woke up in the morning and 45 minutes and 3 stores later he had 12 more.

Damn, I would just love to find just only lonely Iron Spider... it is a ghost town around here.

I picked up a 2nd goblin chase today at the walgreens by my house. Only downside is it doesn't have the chase sticker on the box. Not sure if I'm going to keep it yet or not. :-k

Why would you keep it if it doesn't have a sticker? Just throw it in the trash and move on.

I never got why people are so into stickers.

The same reason people who like stickers don't get the people who don't care about stickers.

Postby **Xx4ST2R0NoTxX** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 6:51 pm

I guess the sticker shows that you received it from the primary source versus an alternate retailer like PC, some people like that over the others that couldn't care less. I'm a sticker person, but understand that if I can't get it normally, I'll accept it from somewhere else without the sticker.

Me either. Actually, I guess I get it. I just don't care much myself.

Postby **Davinci** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 7:49 pm

Its the idea of exclusivity and you have it over others. Same reason with everything really...like pokemon holographics lol

Postby **Prateek0** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 7:52 pm

I guess for OOB collectors doesn't matter and with in box collectors it's nice for the display. But if you can get a figure without one it's not worth passing up on something just because it doesn't have a sticker. I will say it is probably required for chase pieces but not really for retailer's stickers. I don't want to turn this into a big sticker conversation haha but just my thought.

My wife surprised me when I got him with a regular Goblin, Taskmaster, and Iron Spider.

Postby **jambes** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 9:11 pm

Windsor warehouse that supplies NW Chicago still out of stock. Surprised to see that they are hitting previously OOS DCs though. Hopefully that means the replenishment will prioritize regions that never had them in the first place.

Postby **Prateek0** » Thu Feb 25, 2016 11:32 pm

some of my stores here in upstate NY say contact store and some say instock, im going bright and early in the morning as soon as they open, they better have them!

Postby **DrTarr** » Fri Feb 26, 2016 3:26 pm

I was looking again last night for Taskmaster and Black Suit Spidey. Still none at the two closest stores to me. One did have a couple Spirit Yodas and Prototype Boba Fetts. Unfortunately, their boxes were all crushed. I almost bought them anyway, but left them for an out of box collector to grab.

Taskmaster is one of the few Marvel PoP!s I want. Why must he elude me?

I'm the opposite, I would trade my mint task master for a proto boba in a heartbeat. I haven't seen one in the wild yet.
