Wal-Mart breaking street date. Why am I not surprised... SMH

Postby **dmitch86** » Wed Jul 10, 2019 8:53 am

Managed to get Howard and Leonard last night... hopefully I can get the rest of the set. Was not expecting them this early

I fell asleep when these dropped last night. Not shocked Walmart release these early. I think 2 years ago they also released Aquaman a little early as well.

Very sweet set!

darn i missed the early release oh well hopefully i will get them when they go live

Postby **caliwolv** » Wed Jul 10, 2019 3:09 pm

these are my #1 for the SDCC pops, really hoping they go back up! especially Penny and Sheldon!

Fell asleep and completely missed the sale. Got on after finding out and was able to buy Leonard but after hearing all the Walmart shipping drama I do not have high hopes in receiving a good condition Pop. Congrats to all those that got them early!

missed Sheldon and Raj lol

...hopefully they'll come up again or I can get lucky at the con!

Wal-Maert is consistently inconsistent, always fun to buy with a silhouette, and hoping you have the right links

Haha, somebody made a little mistake it seems.

It's starting to feel like it's done on purpose. Walmart pulls this every time theres a con and they get an exclusive :/

Two guys in the back server rooms "yeah just get it over with and push it live now"

Got shipping confirmation today. ETA is 7/16. Fingers crossed for decent boxes

Lol, I would expect Amazon to follow through as well so be on a look out.

I got my shipping confirmation too with a 7/16 delivery date. I am really surprised these will be received before the con. And I as well have my fingers crossed the boxes are not destroyed. [-o<

Like a few others, I just got shipping info for the four I ordered (missed Sheldon) too. Also a Tuesday the 16th delivery date :eek:

It's a gamble with Walmart regardless lol

It doesnt look like they sold too many because some of them sold out relatively quickly and Walmart is known for doing a small first wave and then releasing the rest on the second wave. And hopefully Walmart will cancel them to give everyone a fair chance.

There've been other con exclusives that went up for order early before this, and still fulfilled. As long as the ship date isn't until the con, I think it would cause a lot less stress if they went live early and we were able to get the orders in before the insanity! Hopefully those that sold out quickly went to funatics!

Ive noticed it's hit or miss if they cancel stuff. But on the good side, the pops were up for a while and it seems like they mostly went to legit fans and not bots

I've got a shipment notification for my 3! :eek:

So now the question is - which 3 is it? The description says one thing, the # in the title says another...! Expected delivery date is TUESDAY? Something tells me I ordered some random line that is on clearance... extra DBZ commons or something? ](*,)

Here's hoping that 3 are in a secure BOX.

Best use of a smilie EVER. =D>

(at least, until the next best use of a smilie. I'm fickle, so who knows how long it'll hold!)

Though .. "server rooms" would be for tech, hardware peeps... doing all their ID10T pushing/pulling/plugging stuff.

Site admins just set in a typical cubicle (mostly).

But still good smiley usage. :brushteeth:

3/5 shipped for me. Then when they're all here, they go in a box until October when my mom goes back to Scotland again, heh

Got them too! Now I just need the others. :freddy2:

I missed Penny WM going live. A friend sent me the link and I couldn't get it to work. I was surprisingly ok with it though. If its meant to be then it will be.

Postby **Justuravgnerd** » Thu Jul 11, 2019 1:32 pm

I’m really hoping these restock

These were at the top of my want list.

Postby **Strending625** » Thu Jul 11, 2019 2:06 pm

I’m really surprised that these went live so early. All of the exclusives were supposed to go live next Friday :-/

I did the same, hopefully they come up again, it seemed like it was a small drop so expect there will be more.

Received my order of Howard, Leonard and Raj. They surprisingly came in good condition. They are impressive looking Pops. Raj looks hilarious on that seahorse. My separate order of Penny, hasn't shipped yet to the store, but estimated delivery is Friday. Hopefully an update happens for that one.

Postby **a99kitten** » Thu Jul 11, 2019 4:48 pm

What?!?!??! Jeez Wal Mart. These are my most favorite (and wanted) of the SDCC exclusives.

Awesome! That was quick.

Got to love Walmart's new 1-day shipping policy.

I have to get that Raj, that episode was awesome and that Aquman outfit was epic, bummed they out Superman though!

Should be easy to get here in NZ when they are released next friday.

We even have a store here that "may" sell as a set of 5 of them for the price of 4 !

Postby **caliwolv** » Thu Jul 11, 2019 10:51 pm

The lottery gods were not with me.... we need a restock wally!

Postby **Antman** » Fri Jul 12, 2019 4:10 pm

If anyone ordered any of these fromt he early release and didn't get it shipped, it appears that they are being held for delivery next week. The customer service rep said that was due to Funko intervening. That means my Penny order will have to wait a week. Pray it does process correctly.

My order slightly before the Penny one did ship out and I got it in a day. Walmart really messed up, but it was a win for some of us.

Thanks for the info. Glad Funko did something about them selling early....

Can't blame the two guys in the server room. I would feel the same way.

Nice to hear that Funko was able to apply a little pressure to make them hold off shipping until the release date. Congrats, though, for those that had their order shipped out before that point.

I feel like walmart is a miserable place to go pop hunting. They are terrible at inventory things and I feel like they don't put a lot of effort into their pop section at all.
