Funko Princess Luna & Celestia pre-order @ Hot Topic! Arriving November

[HoustonCollector72]

OMG  !! The tail and mane of Celestia are just hollow pieces of easily breakable plastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if it falls it will brake for sure

[Rainbowrific Renia]

The Utah pony people who preordered are understandably frustrated, considering everyone who didn't preorder now has one and we still don't. I can't leave the house, so it doesn't make much of a difference to me, but it is kind of lame, lol

Not just Utah pony people, trust me.  I placed my order the day the listings were put up on Hot Topic's site and my order JUST shipped out on Friday.  But, we've already gone through the whole reason that the orders were late... even if the reasoning didn't add up considering some people got their orders and had placed theirs later.  "We have to wait until Celestia is available before we can ship your order" Okay, but I know other people who ordered Luna and Celestia and got their Luna already. 

I'm done complaining though.  With any lucky, my order should be at the store tomorrow.

I'm really hoping that everyone's orders ship out soon!

I will be talking to the District Manager , this manager which is in the store closest to me, is making up new pollicies,I called the other stores and the only items with limits are the Comic Con Exclusives .
I went to the store and told her to her face that and she was like " the District Manager will be handling your case "
She was refusing still to sell me at least one ,I told her that she had said to me the limit was one, and I drove to the store as I had told her over the phone,she was all like "well since you have a case with the District Manager I won't sell any to you "
I told her " I did not drive all the way here for you to change your policy for the second time on me "
then she walked to the back and brought only one Celestia and  allowed me to purchase it  !
I'm so mad about this 
I called the 1800 number and the rep placed a request for a manager to call me back .

What terrible customer service. I hope she gets reminded by management that customers end up paying her check and she should treat them better! I can understand if they are making new policies but to try and refuse to sell you even 1 is ridiculous and petty.

Yes the whole thing is changing with them

I just called another store asking for Celestia and the glitters and the new limit policy ,looks like indeed there is one for the new items, 3 I was told at this last store , something about preventing people from selling them on ebay.
guess is a good deal ,but  if I wanted more I just take my niece and nephew with me and we are up to 9 ponies LOL  add my 4 sisters and Mom LOL we are up 24 ,and I got more nephews and nieces ,so .............you know what I mean .... is just a fail  at the end.

I'm surprised it's taken them this long. I remember when I was a kid they used to put limits on how many Beanie Babies you could buy to stop people buying up all the stock. Yes there are ways around it but I'd rather they tried than let one or two people buy up a store's entire stock to scalp on Ebay. Three is a pretty generous limit. With the Beanie Babies it was one.

Does anyone have out of box photos of regular Celestia yet?

The hunt for these plus the hunt for wave 2 Amiibos is driving me insane.  As to that manager. What in the hay? How is she manager anyways? That's just a load of bull she didn't want to sell to you. If you do get the chance to contact the DM, do it. The DM of the local stores here is actually chill as heck, he used to run the closest HT before he got promoted, so he knows first hand how things work on the store manager level and doesn't allow crap like that.

Though I am glad they're putting limits. Freaking sick of the local scalpers.

And god those pictures just make me want that figure even more.

Oh woooow, she's stunning! Thanks for the photo, Houston

Yeesh. I suppose I can see why - with all that hair, them being solid would be extremely heavy and hard to connect to the bodies securely... How thick is the plastic? Is it thin and squidgy or at least rigid and kind of thick, like the heads of the Funko POPs?

If you tap it with your finger nails it sounds very thin and fragile ,not at all like any of the rest of the Funkos,
her plastic will be like the talking ponies from TRU exclusives, (Celestia, Cadence,NM and Chrisalys )  but thinner

Please don't tell me it's the kind that cracks easily...

she will need to be left in box   but even in her box  a Luna got her tail broken , and she is made of the other material that seems more durable ,so ....there will be broken Celestia's manes and tails for sure
