Jambes, is there anyway you could see if there are any in the DC Metro area? The managers in my local area refuse to even talk about the item or look up the WIC. Much appreciated and thank you for providing the updates!!

Nothing yet. I have been posting every store that has them. May take a few weeks still.

Went in yesterday hoping to get the ones the Manager was going to hold for me and was told they did not come on this truck. So looks like I will be waiting 1 more week here in Ohio.

Walgreen exclusives are really bad in my area. I ended up buying GITD Yoda and Prototype Boba Fett off of Popcultcha. Saves me gas and stress of hunting. =P

So. Walgreens.com has this link up http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/pop-st ... 54-product . I checked the Walgreens in my area and it said they had them in stock. I went to my closest location and oh surprise, they do not have them and the manager didn't even know what Funko pop!s are... The only ones i saw were the damn Frozen ones. Do all Funko Pop! vinyls have the same sku numbers at Walgreens? Because i checked my zipcode(85705) and now 6 locations show them "in stock" but they are a few miles away and do not wanna do the damn drive for nothing.

Weird, the picture they have online from that link looks like the older version of Yoda. From my experience, with the Marvel ones, they are all under the same SKU for each series: So it is difficult to have the employees at the store tell you how many of each in a series they have in stock. Jambes might be able to provide you with more info but I think the WIC number you want to look under is 907618. Just keep on checking in this thread to see updated information on availability. Jambes has been really good in providing updates.

That is for the basic stock of Pops so Frozen, HTTYD, TMNT, or whatever else is floating around, NOT the exclusives. That's also why they word it as "assortment" rather than specifically Star Wars Exclusives.

As far as I know, these will not be online. Shame, it would help everyone with their hunting so I could actually work while I am here. :p

Awesome update!! As of midnight last night- call first as this doesn't reflect today's sales. I suspect a lot of them to be sitting in the stockroom.

Just found the picture on Reddit of the back of one found at a Walgreens here. Not sure if anyone has posted the back of one from Popcultcha. Just wondering if those say Walgreens exclusive as well. If not I really don't mind exclusive being printed on the box in place of stickers. Just maybe in the front somewhere for display purposes, like the MCC ones. Also 'Wallgreens' lol ](*,) :roflmao:

Ok, I'm glad that it still indicates it is an exclusive somewhere on the packaging.

Ahh, I get it. Target's system is similar. They must have gone fast because those were the only two left!

It looks like every store in California at least is going to get 2, as a starting point, unless they have a high sales history with the Marvel, then they may get more. The toy reset happens Sept 11 I believe, so that may be why too.

That makes sense. It's starting to sound like finding these can only get easier in the next few days.

So sad. I went into a store which was on the list and they said they were resetting everything and it was probably all in boxes and they couldn't go through them. Told me to come back in a week when everything is set up :(

Thanks for all your help Ashley. Tons of help!

Just bought the 2 in my local Walgreen's! Went in hoping they would have the Punisher, Venom, or Spider-Man 2099 in stock and was totally surprised to find that they had these 2 bad boys in stock instead for $9.50 each! So stoked!

Went to half a dozen stores in North Texas tonight and got all 4. No store had duplicates, so wondering if they only got one of each.
