Horror Series 3 Mystery Minis!

Postby **Blake85** » Sat Aug 27, 2016 12:22 pm

No stores have them over here.
This blows lol

Postby **Munky** » Sat Aug 27, 2016 2:28 pm

Seems like GameStop here will have some in next week. Something like a case per store.
Nothing in at Hot Topic here yet either!

Postby **Barryyyyy** » Sat Aug 27, 2016 3:02 pm

Visited my Game Stop today, was told they would have them Monday!

Ah I am seeing them showing up on eBay now, especially the rares. I haven't seen Mummy or Adam yet. Does that mean it will be either Jason and Twisty or Mummy and Adam per case?

I'll be happy no matter which rares show up, but I'm rooting for one of the 1/72's (although the Twins would be nice) and Jason and the Mummy. I want them all, and am nervous to see who gets the exclusives and what they are.

One ebay seller has Freddy, Adam, and Mummy listed.

Ooh nice, I see them now! Wow, Adam looks great!

One thing I'm noticing in the figures is that the paint is looking sloppier than usual in transitions. I don't know if this is because they rushed them or maybe the quality control is dropping. I just hope that people on here get good figures in terms of paint application (along with the ones they want). I could just be nit-picking as these are close-ups and the figures almost always look better in person than the pics on eBay. :P

Thanks for sharing that!!!

The layout from the video he posted is:

TOP LAYER

BACK

Wolfman ----- Wolfman
Jaws ---------- Jaws
Elvira --------- Elvira

FRONT

BOTTOM LAYER

BACK

Twisty (1:24) --------- Jason (1:24)
Bateman (1:72) ------ Slimer
Jack T. --------------- Alex (Clockwork Or.)

FRONT

...looking forward to other people confirming if this layout works! I'll definitely post my layout when I get my hands on a case!

Yes, this layout matches up with what I've pulled so far. Got a few more today from a different Gamestop. I'll need to find a fresh case to go for Freddy and Jason.

Wow! Twisty and the Mummy look excellent!
Looks like my local GameStop will be getting them in next week.
Can't wait!

If anyone's after the 1/6's let me know. I'm not after anything fancy just some minis I don't have

Postby **Propellarhead9** » Sun Aug 28, 2016 7:36 pm

No store around me have got them in yet. I'm going to be on the lookout all week for them, my wife goes bananas for them.

Postby **Blake85** » Mon Aug 29, 2016 1:14 am

Think geek got it
But box was mixed.
Got jaws
Wolf man
And Regan

Oh man, I want that Bateman figure baaaaaad....

Postby **skinny_puppy123** » Mon Aug 29, 2016 9:53 am

Any Canadians think we'll see these within the next month or two?

Also, it really sucks that the boxes are packed with duplicates. I really enjoyed just buying a whole box and knowing I wouldn't get a duplicate.

I managed a drastic dash across a few different gamestops at lunch today.
Still missing a Freddy.

I still have two cases coming from BBTS so should be able to fill in the 1/6s and hopefully a Freddy will be in there somewhere (as well as a few duplicates :eek:

)

Two more cases on order? :eek:

You must really like this set.

Postby **Munky** » Mon Aug 29, 2016 8:41 pm

I wasn't expecting 1/6... :eek:

Ordering before the ratios are out is not a good idea - I've learned the hard way.
That said, I should have some trades to complete my series 1 lol

Postby **VoorheesRulez** » Mon Aug 29, 2016 9:04 pm

Anyone looking for a trade I really need the new jason. Have twisty, elvira, Ed scissorhands, creature from black lagoon to trade

Ack, I'm gnashing my teeth in envy at that shelf when they haven't even hit my state yet. Did you find that the layout was the same for all the cases you picked from?

Dang these look so awesome, I know local collectors have been swooping these up quick I can see why =D>

The twins and Adam Maitland are super cool. Actually they all are. Nice finds.

Bride of Chucky, Beetlejuice Barbara, and GITD Slimer are the exclusives, guessing Hot Topic.

Good... Only need Barbara myself, so that'll save me some monies.

Need help with those exclusive

So far all the GameStops have had the same layout. I even managed to pull slimer for a girl who works in the shop. They were kind enough to let me know when their case came in.

Thanks for the kind comments Star Warner and Kwiksilverpop. My credit card needs a little cooling now!

I've heard that my local Hot Topic are getting some Funko stuff in tomorrow. Who knows, they might have series 3 in... What are the chances of the same layouts there?

I would really like the other BeetleJuice Barbara.

Postby **ZartansBro** » Mon Aug 29, 2016 11:52 pm

I really hope the Hot Topic exclusives end up like the series 2 Sci Fi ones. In that case, the two unique sculpts were a 1/6 and a 1/12, and only the repaint was difficult to get. I'd be happy enough if only GitD Slimer is really hard to find, because I really want the others!

Postby **ShyGuyPal** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 12:12 am

They've hit more shores and I was able to hit two Gamestops.
First Gamestop a guy literally beat me one minute to the case, but he grabbed all the Jaws and Elivras. I lost track of the boxes and ended up buying 5 just in case. Got Wolfman, Jack, Mummy, Adam, and the Twins! Second Gamestop only one was taken (which they said the person got Jaws), but the case was clearly mixed around. I was able to pull a Twisty, Mummy, and Wolfman. I'm assuming the 1/36 or 1/72 is still there, but I've spent enough for one day. I have a box coming in so hope I pull a 1/72 there!

And I was totally wrong, they all look amazing in person in terms of sculpt and paint. The pics on ebay don't do justice. Jack is my favorite so far, and Adam is pretty cool too!

Same, that would be fantastic! I'm so excited for the exclusives, can't believe we're getting two new sculpts!

Postby **swind15** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 12:20 am

Got a case today at Gamestop. Rares were, Mummy, Twisty, and Twins. Went back to a different Gamestop to cherry pick and pulled an Adam (my most wanted in the series). Now to figure out how I'm going to get Barbara and Tiffany when more info is dropped. 8-[

Postby **HowardTheDuck** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 4:03 am

Glow Slimer looks so good!

Postby **Battastic** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 6:53 am

Looks like they hit my local GS yesterday. I will have to try today on break.
Only want Jaws, Slimer, and Adam (Adam being the hardest to get). Anyone remember where they pulled him from?
Will have to get Barbara as well once we know where she may be hiding lol

Adam from Betlejuice is on the bottom layer, back row, left box. You'll have a 50/50 chance of getting him or Twisty because they're both 1/24. Good luck!

Awesome! I will be trying this real soon

Postby **darkerfil** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 10:52 am

I've got a case on order that should be in later this week. Will try to confirm layout (if I don't get too excited and just tear through them!). Would also be happy to buy/sell/trade doubles. Still need a couple from Series 1 and 2.

Postby **MadLove** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 11:03 am

This is gonna be a tough set to complete! For those ordering cases please take note of the case assortment if you can (usually on the brown outer box with a letter)
No sign of them yet in my area but hopefully soon!

Postby **Battastic** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 12:04 pm

Found an untouched case at GameStop during my lunch break. The layout worked perfectly.
I landed Jaws & Slimer but did not get Adam Maitland.
I am now the owner of Twisty, so if anyone wants to trade for an Adam Maitland...please keep me in mind [-o<

Or if you happen to have a double of Adam...I will be glad to take him off your hands.
Now to try and find Barbara at HT

Postby **angrykoalagear** » Tue Aug 30, 2016 12:24 pm

These look amazing! I am going to be stalking Hot Topic for the arrival of these.
