Alright, thank you, so just take the photo checklist to Photobucket and edit it there. Okay, I think I can handle that. haha. Thank you, Missa.

Billy you can also take a picture of the figures on the box then use one of those paint apps to cross out which you have and upload that to the gallery.

Did not mention photobucket but you sound like you know what youre doing now, so go for it lol

Thank you for another option, Valde.

People are already asking crazy prices. Some offered me a demon dean and demon abaddon for only $80.

Threw my own check list together on my phone

Are you looking for a full HT case?

Beware everyone. Dean's hand can and will fall off. Dropped him yesterday and his hand holding the knife popped off. Nearly fell over, but luckily it clicks right back in!

That's wild. They're not even going on eBay for anything like that and they're not even the rarest pieces.

My case from Big Bad Toy Store arrived today. I had case D. I still have to upload my pics of the case layout to Flickr. Chases in the case, Abaddon, Leviathan, and Gabriel.

For now, here's a pic of one of my favorite figures in this case, Castiel.

Congrats Ra and Stacy!

I love the Cas too, Stacy. The backwards tie detail, the stance (I do so miss BAMF!Cas), the wings...

Thanks everyone.

Congrats on your new minis! I'm jealous of the Leviathan!

For anyone interested, I just got my case from BBTS. It was a "B" case and had the following layout:

Top Layer:

Sam - Dean
Kevin - Crowley
Abaddon (Regular)- Lilith

Bottom Layer:

Bobby - Castiel
Gabriel - Charlie
Bloody Sam - Scarecrow

Now just waiting for my Hot Topic order to show up. :bounce:

My local hot topic got two cases in so I went and picked through them. Managed to get the last 3 I really wanted!

Used my extra castiel to make a bloody/smitey version and will prob use one of my abandons to make the chase version of her too.

To anyone that has the cm demon Abaddon, could you take a pic or explain how her head situation works?

Postby **missauru** » Mon Aug 03, 2015 6:50 pm

Congrats!! Where did you pick the 1/72s from in the cases?

Here is my Abbadon comparison pic I posted many pages back:

Postby **punksraven** » Mon Aug 03, 2015 6:52 pm

Thanks for the comparison! Sorry I can't help with where they came from. I was told someone riffled through the cases.

Has anyone found these in any other stores besides Hot Topic or Booksamillion? Like Walmart, Toysrus, or Target?

Postby **Pasunepomme** » Tue Aug 04, 2015 8:52 am

They're back in stock at Hot Topic's website, just fyi: http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/PopCul ... 344499.jsp

Fairly certain someone a few pages back posted about finding a few at Target, and various local/indie comic shops have them in stock too. Radar Toys in Oregon, e.g., and Third Eye Comics in Maryland.

Postby **missauru** » Tue Aug 04, 2015 9:10 am

Was just about to post the minis are back on the site too

Postby **BillyLouis** » Tue Aug 04, 2015 11:39 am

My Hot Topic minis are waiting for me at home.

I'm kinda stung from Hot Topic and my CC info being compromised.

Postby **synergy56** » Tue Aug 04, 2015 3:28 pm

Wow. So I have an interesting Hot Topic story now. The Supernatural minis are the first minis I've bought from the Hot Topic website since I figured they would be hard to get in stores. When they went live I bought 16 and used one of my 15% off rewards. Everything seemed fine, but when my paypal payment processed the 15% discount was gone. So I emailed them. Didn't get a response, so I called in. The guy on the phone said he was handling it and was refunding the difference in payment. I haven't seen a refund processed and I just got an email from Customer Service saying this:

"I apologize for the inconvenience. Hot Topic reserves the right to restrict, limit, cancel or alter orders and the terms of purchase and return applicable to Bulk Purchasers. The term "Bulk Purchaser" shall mean and include Purchasers for resale and Purchasers of greater than five (5) items of the same sku of Merchandise.

So now I am a bulk purchaser for wanting a set of the mystery minis. Wish they had told me that before I made the purchase. ](*,)

I have the anger. :angryfire:

Hell yeah, the first of the eight Hot Topic "Supernatural" minis I open was a Gym Teacher Dean exclusive! I'll post pictures later.

One of the employees at my store mentioned this to me a while ago, implying that it was being implemented to combat people buying up large quantities of blind boxes, taking them home and [weighing] them out to find the rares, then returning the rest in bulk to stores.

I was able to buy my case in-store without a problem (this time), so maybe HT is only applying these restrictions online for now. Anyway, it sucks that you got nailed for it.

Congrats BillyLouis! Looks like a few people are starting to get their hands on him!
