Crazy that a $10 item that large is at such high risk for theft.

Temecula

thanks

the Redlands walgreens had GG, Sabine, and Spider-man 2099 but with those security locks. :(

Spoiler: show


No problem. I stopped by the Sun City location today and they had 3 cases they were putting out. 4 GG and 4 Nadines in a case.

I found a good GG today at 83rd and Glendale, but the rest were gone. God, look at those security spiders. Savages.

No Walgreens I go to put those security things on their Pops, luckily. Probably because most Pops in my area remain untouched for months, so there's no threat of theft.

yeah it makes no sense to put them those security things on pops, im going to start going to a different walgreens now. which sucks because this one was so close, but those security things damage the boxes, as you can see. :( LOL

Thanks for this comment. I found them at a local Walgreens today but I would have missed 'em if I hadn't read this earlier. The normal spot was stocked up with commons and some old exclusives, but remembering what you said here I went and checked down the seasonal aisle and, sure enough, there were a bunch of pops up on the top shelf. They had various WG exclusives from different waves and properties with Grievous and Sabine nestled in the middle. Be patient with these, I have a feeling they're going to be pretty abundant before too long.

Just received a GG and masked Sabine from a lovely fellow forum member, at cost! They are really very beautiful.

Now, to find that Scarif! (Tho I tried ordering one from the UK Toys R Us and customer service said they would be shipping it to me in the US, so we'll see...)

Spider wraps on Pops? I don't think there's a DM or LPS that would ever suggest such a thing. If that store has been having issues with them, it's internal.

Hello - I should have access to a good deal of Sabine Masked and General Grievous POPs. I can buy a handful if people are in need. I would be shipping from Arizona and I'd estimate $12 before shipping.

I got an extra G Grievy if anyone has an extra Scarif. My local Walgreens guy saw me creeping and said he we received Sabine and Greivous in today and went in the back and pulled out a box O PLENTY. So I scooped up 3 G Grievys and Sabines for Friends... but one friend found it the same day... All the Scarifs they had were ripped and broken... I was generous and left 2 GGs or other people! You see how kindness, being friendly and getting to know people really pay off in the end... This guy didn't have to help me at all.. he could have been like, oh no that POP WEIRDO IS BACK! and ran the other way lol.

Walgreens #1 had about no lie 12+ Glow yodas.
Walgreens #2 I went to usually section and a bunch of trash, as im leaving store I see classic Marvel pops (punisher, venom, spider man 2099 etc) and then on the end cap is a star wars section and behold 1 grievous left.
So just a heads up these star wars pops aren't in the usual toy sections
