Stranger Things Wave 2

Postby **Strangest Thing** » Fri Jul 07, 2017 5:58 am

I think Nancy looks great! Excited to add another Eleven to my collection, even though this one isn't great. Thought we would have seen a variant in the yellow t-shirt.

Do you guys think the listings for "Jonathan with Bear Trap" & "Brenner in Haz Suit" found in the GameStop preorder system are GS Exclusives?

I went to Gamestop earlier today to pick up Pennywise (great Pop! by the way) and the cashier mentioned the "Jonathan with Bear Trap" preorder, claiming it was a store exclusive and would be "hard to find."

This wave is still for Season 1. I am going to assume that probably the week of or week after we will get an announcement for the first wave of Season 2.

Postby **Lyndsay_wagner** » Sun Aug 13, 2017 9:34 am

I absolutely love the second wave of the stranger things. I am definitely going to need the Hopper Chase. However like the first wave - I will be getting them all. I actually bought 2 sets of this series 1 as my husband took one set to work. So I suppose we will be buying two sets of the second wave.

Postby **ImranC23** » Mon Aug 21, 2017 9:12 pm

I need Hopp and Joyce in Hazmat suit. They're awesome.

Postby **Deathlinks** » Mon Aug 21, 2017 9:33 pm

I heard the HT Hopper should already be hitting stores!! Cant wait! LOVE STRANGER THINGS! And have the complete first wave, plus SDCC, Just gotta add these

What do you think it'd look like, is he holding the bear trap?

Postby **o2thedbld5** » Tue Aug 22, 2017 1:08 pm

Not really fond of the Hopper Chase. I'd be ok with just the regular. Have these actually been hitting stores yet? Only thing about HT is deals dont work on Stranger Things, even for pops. But I will def collect a select few from this Wave 2.

Most likely, but at that point, why would I even bother buying the common one? Hahah

Eagerly anticipating Season 2 and there already talking about an end game lol

Postby **ImranC23** » Wed Aug 23, 2017 12:26 am

I had the idea that I was gonna get the full set, but I had all the exclusives without the chases or commons and I realized I had no space. Now down to just having the chases, 100% need the hazmat suit pops though.

Postby **Popsaysyee** » Wed Aug 23, 2017 3:50 am

Man, these are supposedly coming out soon. That just means I need to finish my Wave 1 set and also get Wave 2! Oh man, I'm so behind. But these look awesome!!

Postby **JohnnyPOP** » Wed Aug 23, 2017 9:59 am

They're showing up on Radar Toys already so yes, soon.

Picked up Nancy and Eleven from Radar Toys. Cheap plug for Radar by the way. Excellent shipping and customer service.

Hey, everyone. Just a head's up. I went to GS today to preorder Jonathon with Bear Trap and they couldn't find him. When I gave them the number I saw on a receipt someone had posted from their preorder that listed Jonathon with Bear Trap, it came up as Jonathon with Camera. So, I don't know if the bear trap one is gone or if it was a mistake and it was supposed to be camera.

Anyone have any other info?

The associate had just sold her Chase Hopper so she called few of the other GS in town and one of them had it but it was being held until closing for someone so they said they would call me this morning if the person didn't pick it up. I called them this morning and the GS associate said that it was actually being held for the store manager. That sucks. Isn't there some sort of store or company policy about stuff like that?

We're pretty new to "hard-core" collecting so just hoping to get some tips on where/how to find Chases. Thanks!

Well, in my experience, it's like the wild wild west out there. There are some policies. There are things that are supposed to happen. But they rarely do. You could ask to speak to their district manager. Write a letter of protest. March on Washington. It probably won't get you that chase. Someone might lose their job.

Of course, even if none of those things happened, you have people without jobs who do nothing but drive around all day buying up every single chase "for trades, because they want it, for Ebay, for their great great uncle's nephew's son's roommate."

Sorry. Do I sound salty? I'm salty.

I have been collecting Pops! for like 6 or 7 years and I've found 3 chases in the wild. Two of them were flukes because they were being held and then the people holding them decided not to and put them out at weird times of day.

The usual advice is to drive around constantly checking shelves. Try to get in good with people who work places that get pops. Go to rural locations where there aren't many other collectors. Join local Facebook groups. There's no magic bullet on this one. It's a lot of luck and a lot of hoping you don't have a band of flippers working your area.

The 2 containment suit ones are great.
Must buy!

Hot Topic created the shipping label for my preordered Hazmat Hopper so hopefully I should have that soon. I preordered the full common plus chase set online (I could probably do without the chase but this is the one set I plan on collecting in full - although I skipped the FYE two-pack since that is just a packaging variation. I have never seen a chase in stores so I know I wouldn't have found one in the wild). Now I just have worry about finding the Hazmat Joyce at Target and then whatever NYCC exclusives there are.

My guesses for NYCC are Hazmat Brenner and Benny. No way they do anything for season two since the con is before the season premieres, but I would expect season two Pops before the end of the year.

We picked up hopper hot topic exclusive this weekend.

Anyone know when Joyce hazmat suit is street dated at Target? I read somewhere that it'd be today Aug 29? Can anyone confirm?
