Quote from: Bergamot on October 11, 2012, 05:43:19 PMI don't think they will be exclusive... Funko products are sold at comic book stores and other fun places as well, so I'd imagine we'll see them on the shelves of other stores soon. Funko does do exclusives (Disney/Gemini/Astro Zombies/etc...) whether these ponies are, not sure.....I looked at the HT link quickly.....didn't notice anywhere saying that these vinyl ponies were made by Funko....am I blind?

So in a few days they go from "rumored" to "sold out"!? Somebody could have at least put out a press release, I hope this means more will get produced.

I NEED IT.
I looked up shipping to the U.K.- looks like a package weighing 16oz/1lb (I assume the packaged pony in another shipping box will weigh around this much) will cost $11.60 to ship first class- plus an additional $11.75 to send by registered mail. so $23.35 IF you can manage to ship it in a package that is less than 12". If the recipient want the packaging to look nice (and I will assume they do) you might have a very difficult if not impossible time finding a box less than 12" to fit it into. (I am considering wrapping it in sheets of foam and cardboard like Chinese shippers do- but will need to assess once the package arrives) If you can't get the package shipped in a box under 12"- you can't ship first class- and also the package is likely to weigh slightly over 1lb. Assuming a package with dimensions of 14" x 14"x 10- and a weight of 1lb 6 oz- usps.com shows a shipping price of $40.85 for priority- and $48.40 for express- I think that is pretty close to what Hottopic is charging, isn't it? So maybe Hot Topic is actually charging actual shipping costs after all?
This might be a dumb question... but does anyone know if they're going to sell these in stores? Or if they already are? I'd rather go to my local Hot Topic and pick one up than pay for expensive shipping.
Of course I don't work at Hot Topic- but just about everything they have in their online store- they often have in some of their stores- I WONDER if they are there already???
Does the ones that are showing up look like the one that sold on ebay for over $400.00???? If so I bet that person feels stupid!
