I'll say Loki, Penguin and Thor (in that order) seem to be the hardest to find. I think that right now Jack and Sally from NBX are pretty rare, but that may change if they see re-release.

Mike, Sulley and Jack all seem to be pretty hard to find for most people. (including me)

Glow Boo Berry is probably the next rarest after the Clockwork Orange Pop. Limited Edition of 24. Not counting any protos, or the Pop Protos that are being given away right now in the contest in this section.

correct. I think it had something to do with the licensing. I believe Brian made a couple of the SDCC Things with Black Eyes and the rest with Blue... Or it could be the other way. regardless the lesser of the bunch did not come to the con and there were just a very few made, from my understanding.

I remember Brian telling me, he wasn't supposed to do Blue Eyed Things but he did anyways. He probably made the Black eyes to get the go ahead.

Alex and the other one-offs shouldn't really count as they were never distributed at retail. Does anyone know case assortments? Many seem to think Penguin is harder to find, but the first case assortments I saw found them evenly packed.

Both the Penguin and Riddler have been retired. That may be why they are harder to find than the others.

If you look at the regular edition of the POP Thing it has black eyes. MArvel can be weird with their licensing some times.

Do they!?! I don't own one but all the photos I've ever seen have blue eyes..although now that you mention it the Metallic Thing's box shows the Thing with black eyes.
