SDCC Question

Postby wraithkelso » Tue May 21, 2013 9:55 pm

Is there any way that someone not going to SDCC can get just a few select Pops. Like I would love the "brave disney princess with a make-over" because I'm guessing it is Merida in her new outfit (which I happen lo like). Also if there are really new pop there for Disney series 6 I would want those as well. Is there a way to make that happen?

Yeah, I think that's what most people are doing this year. After finding out how crazy busy it was last year, it's probably too hard to for funatics to try and attempt to get anything at the booth this year. I'm sure if they get extras they'll be selling them on here after though. Gemini is the easiest option. I think even a lot of those attending SDCC will be trying to buy theirs online too just to avoid the crazy lines at the Funko booth!

I definitely spent an hour in line, ended up talking to people that didn't even know what funko was, they just wanted a specific exclusive.

Right, the people in line around me were only in line for Disney stuff, they didn't know about this site.

That's what the people around me wanted. The boo and sulley combo pack was a big hit there.

I had a great Funatic buy every SDCC Disney Pop for me last year. Without asking he offered to stand in line, buy them for me, and then ship them to me here in Hawaii.

With the exception of the Sulley Boo combo pack, the rest of the Disney Pops would have been cheaper if I had bought them from Gemini with their free shipping. When factoring in shipping, I believe I paid more per Pop if I had just bought them from Gemini.

I really appreciated what this Funatic did for me but I won't be asking anyone to stand in line for me as I feel bad for what he must have had to gone through at SDCC.

I'll be stalking Gemini this year. =)

Sorry to piggyback on this thread, but how have the non Disney pops been for trying to get them at the con?

If it is spelled L O K I, forgetaboutit. It seemed like they had plenty of Sheldon's left over. But bottomline, the line was ridiculous.

You should have seen the list he had. You weren't the only one on it.

When I went through the booth last year, there were a few Lokis on the shelf, but that was the only time I saw them in stock. Every other time I passed the booth, they didn't have any. I saw the Sulley & Boo once, and I was fortunate to have gotten one there. I never saw Oogie Boogie, or the Sorcerer Mickey two-pack in stock. I bought a Darth Maul from the booth, but he may have been low on stock as well.

Pretty much everything else was readily available, if I remember correctly.
