Went to a Fry's today...

Postby sphinxie » Sat Jun 16, 2012 7:57 pm

....and found nada on chases. I did find Bane though so I picked him up for a friend.

Worst part is that a lot of the workers there didn't know what I was talking about. Saving grace was the Spiderman display.

Oh, and I dont like the way they put tape on the top AND bottom of the box. AND their stupid label leaves residue.

I miss you guys and can't wait to see you at Fundays.

The end.

Them not knowing means u can get the chases cuz they have no clue as to what they are. Just my point of view.

I was surprised to see some of the Muppet Pops I got today had tape on them straight from the case. It'll be interesting to see if they all start coming that way and if Fry's stops the over taping. Sadly, I don't see anything changing with their stupid stickers though.

Yah, that's what I was hoping for. But every time I go through taped up boxes or beat up ones at hot topic, it breaks my heart. It's like stepping on a flower =(

And I didn't see any muppets there. Poo. It took me a while, but I got the tape off. Unfortunately, their label left a residue. I know there is stuff that I could use to remove it. It's just a pain =P

Thanks for the heads up.

I've only found one at Hot Topic. Good luck on your search!

Hot topics are really far from me, so i avoid them. I heard from a friend that gamestops keep there chases in the back and u have to ask about them.

I use those white sponges. I think it's called magic eraser?

Ooo, I'll try both. I LOVE magic erasers. They're great for wall markings. And I didn't know game stop carried pops as well. Thanks for the heads up!

I actually found 2 chases at Fry's...just got to be there at the right time or search for it because they do spread out their Pops at different location. I got lucky! Hope you find one at Fry's soon!

GameStop in Cali haven't carried any pop that had a chase for it.... Only avengers, tdkr, and amazing spider man. No chases in that bunch.
