I don't think these are going to be sold online if your plan was to buy a bunch and then return the commons.

I normally don't go Pop hunting at Target. It just causes to much stress and anxiety in my life, but I may just have to make a small effort for this pop. It's friggin awesom. I'm a little excited..

Yeah, need these for the collection, haven't seen a lot of activity on the web yet of these hitting anywhere. I know it's not 100% reliable but I keep checking brickseek for clues...

I live in Brooklyn and haven't seen these on the shelves yet. Hoping to be able to get a chase!

There even creepy in PoPs

Gotta say, I'm not too big of a fan of Store exclusives with chase...Hard enough to find and exclusive at Target as it is let alone a chase for that exclusive. So glad this is not a set I'm looking to get although I might just pick up Jack based solely on that iconic role

Postby **Skinnie311** » Tue Aug 08, 2017 11:11 am

I've been checking pretty much every day for any in stock information around the west coast and nothing yet. It's going to be difficult that it's a store chase exclusive but it will just make the hunt more rewarding if and when I find it.

Went to target last night - no sign yet

Anyone know when they are supposed to be released? I need them for my collection.

I think it should be coming out later this month. But good luck, Target is notorious for sucking lol

. Hopefully you are good with the regular and not chase variants.

Been doing ok with target lately. I'm hoping this one stays true to that, but the chase is a huge wild card. Luckily I can live without this so I won't drop huge money to get it in the secondary market.

I honestly don't remember myself since it's been so long since I've seen the movie, but I read that the girls are not actually twins in the movie or the book. Is that true? If so, how could funko have gotten it so wrong?

Postby **PrincessLeia** » Wed Aug 09, 2017 2:55 am

Lisa and Louise Burns are twins in real life (they were 10 years old at the time the movie was shot) and they were hired to play the role of the Grady twins in the movie. In the book tho, the characters aren't twins, they're sisters. Stanley Kubrick wasn't looking for twins, he was looking for sisters of different ages for the roles, but when they auditioned, he thought having twins would be more frightening. And that's how Kubrick made history. =D>

Can wait till they come out! Do we have an approximate date? October/Halloween?

This set is really cool and I hope I come across it at Target. I'm not going to hunt for it though.

Target exclusive and chase? On second thought, I'm good.

Lucky!! The Target's out in AZ seem to never have any of the exclusives, either in person or when you call...super frustrating!! :mad:

Postby **Njtree_82** » Mon Aug 14, 2017 7:00 pm

If these go online are people just going to order 20 of them and hope they get a Chase and then just return them at the store?

I've been trying to keep an eye on Brickseek for these and it's been showing red all month. It's probably gonna drop when we're all at HQ lol

Agreed. I have found only 1 chase at target (starlord) in the evening time and it was completely Random. I was actually going to target for something else and figured I would check the Toy area. It was on an end cap of the Isle. It was a weird but happy moment

I hope not haha. I wonder if there is a target close to HQ

Postby **buddylee** » Tue Aug 15, 2017 8:52 pm

I can't wait for these! the entire Shining Line is amazing.

Postby **Popspedia** » Tue Aug 15, 2017 9:14 pm

I haven't spotted any in socal yet.

Postby **lavery01** » Tue Aug 15, 2017 11:00 pm

Chase or common, I'll be glad to have either. I'm a fan of the movie.

I was thinking the same thing. Can you imagine that poor Target being overrun by Funatics searching for The Shining chases?

We'd probably look like a horde of zombies clamoring over the Pop section lol

i am pretty certain this chase figure will be hard to find

Postby **Imadv8** » Tue Aug 15, 2017 11:59 pm

Oh my, I got chills with this one. This and Jack will be great additions. I may need to keep them away from the kids though.

Postby **Brutesquad** » Wed Aug 16, 2017 3:43 pm

For some reason I thought these were 'scheduled' for August just like the other Shining Pops but the blog does say October,

"Look for The Grady Twins, only at Target mid-October!"

so I guess I can stop checking brickseek every day for awhile.. I'll just do it every other day..just to be on the safe side... 8-[

Postby **tugzy23** » Wed Aug 16, 2017 8:17 pm

Can't wait to hopefully get this!!

Postby **froyomorada** » Wed Aug 23, 2017 5:39 pm

They mentioned in the funkast that this is a 1:36 chase
