Yeah, but my store has the halloween section up already next to the school supplies. Also, I don't think Myers is part of the assortment. I just saw Pennywise, Freddy, and Jason.

I got pennywise and Freddy. I don't think they have any Jason chases in this set.

I guess we are close enough to Halloween, time to bring out all the horror pops!

I went to my walgreen looking for the horror pops but the guy working there told me I bought the chases already. In my head I was like this is the last time I'll come here lol

I don't understand how anyone finds these in store. Are you guys hounding the employees to pull them out the back because when I ask they just give me a p*** off look...

Postby **ntranger** » Fri Aug 25, 2017 1:11 pm

all of ours still have the "Back to School" section up, since all the college kids move back in to the dorms this weekend (UIUC). They said the Halloween section, except for all the candy, which is already out, won't be set up until after Labor Day. The store downstairs has my name and number to call me when they come across the cases. I got really excited last night, because I got a call, ran across the street, and the lady hands me a case of M&M suckers. lol

I said "Wrong kind of Pops, sweetheart." and showed her a picture of what the case looks like, so she wrote all the info off the box down, and said she would call me either today or tomorrow, when they re-arrange the stock room. She certainly gets an A for effort.

Also keep in mind that a lot of stores may have only gotten in one case of the Halloween assortment, and one if the NBC assortment. I sold ALL of mine in less than 6 hours of receiving them. And that was over a week ago. If am employee tells you they don't have them, it could very likely be true.

Do they only get one shipment ever? Or are there more shipments before Halloween?

I am not sure. Some items are replenishable. However, at least at my warehouse, there is no more inventory of pops available. Could show up layer though.

a super helpful manager I talk to a lot opened 3 fresh cases of horror pops in front of me and I was like a kid at Christmas! Not one chase :-&

They did have a fresh case of the horror minis though. $\:D/$

Just finished calling 7 Walgreens around me (fedway/auburn) The half that had the boxes sold the ones I wanted. So I'd try calling with the WIC numbers 991784 and 991785

Good luck!

What are those the WIC numbers for? The assortment and Mystery Minis?

Thanks

I was able to get the mystery minis last friday but now another store has 24 in , 2 fresh cases, but they have "1000s of boxes" in the back and cannot look. lol

I mean I know, I've seen pictures of how hectic it is. But I just really want to get the rest of the exclusives... I am happy that I was able to get my Pennywise chase though from walgreens.

Someone in my area found the GITD Freddy and im so jelly.

I keep calling a bunch of stores every day hoping someone will go and find my the mystery minis box...

I've been going to walgreeens everyday for the past month hoping to see a sally or penny wise and no luck

Postby **AutumnsToyz** » Fri Aug 25, 2017 8:43 pm

The Walgreens I went to this morning had two cases in the back, one had an assortment of horror pops and the second case had a pennywise chase. I though about going to another Walgreens, but thought I shouldn't push my luck.

Postby **KnicksALLday** » Fri Aug 25, 2017 11:54 pm

the only horror pop i saw was jason... i ended up passing... out of all the walgreens i been too there was tons of juggernauts at one and the other had tons of mace windus... but both store also had kane, shawn michaels and gwen pool

Postby **BigEvilDad** » Sat Aug 26, 2017 12:18 am

I have a full routine I use when calling.
its worked well so far, I got the Pennywise (and chase)
and got the seated sally X2
and then got the Jason and Freddy re-issues (not chase)
I traded with another member - one of my sallys for one of his Behemoths
and then I found a box-damaged Cody hiding all by his lonesome at a hidden little Walgreens

no, only the horror assortment. They told me the NBC "stuff" is still in the back buried in boxes. Sounds like they will have an entire NBC display?

Postby **Geescube** » Sat Aug 26, 2017 9:52 am

Found my first store that had their chases plucked by employees. Boo, hiss!!

Postby **TakeMeToTheRiot** » Sat Aug 26, 2017 9:54 am

I found the horror minis at a few Walgreens here, but haven't seen any horror pops yet unfortunately. Walgreens womps!

I've seen the NBC display at a couple WAGs, but no pops yet. Haven't seen the horror pops either. Maybe they've been in the back, but I didn't have time to wait.

My Walgreens started putting out Halloween candy, nothing else yet.

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Sat Aug 26, 2017 4:18 pm

My Walgreens has an NBC display out but no Glow Behemoths.

Was in Walgreens yesterday, still nothing, not a single Pop has sold since the last time I was there, no Halloween assortments out, no nothing.

Postby **neilmc2001** » Sun Aug 27, 2017 3:53 pm

I tried 4 Walgreens yesterday and 3 today - all old pops and 2 random horror mystery mini singles on an empty shelf- seems like they're clearing space to put out Halloween stock

Postby **XSRK** » Sun Aug 27, 2017 4:00 pm

Damn I'm in Canada, If I was in the US I would drive to ever single Walgreens I could, I really want that chase pennywise.

If you don't mind me asking, what location is this? I know the one on Fort Apache and Trop has an employee that stakes claim to Funko products.
