I am so looking forward to the thirty-seventh installment of SEVEN HUNDRED HOBO NAMES

I have this sneaky feeling that Hobo Name 363 is going to rock (although it will be hard to top "Sweet Daddy Champagne").

Still waiting...  just 24 installments to go!

Stll waiting...  just 14 installments to go!

Saw this rumored on Twitter so I thought I'd post it here sine HissTank is usually pretty reputable...

SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

You've been warned. ;)


Season 5 Spoilers here.

I know it bugs some people, but I love it when they change stuff from the books, especially if it means we get more [spoiler] and to see him with our Mother of Dragons Khaleesi?  Awesome.

Also been reading a bit about the planned flashbacks that are coming in Season 5.  Interesting choice to go that route, but again it's a nice way to stall the main story to help spread the books out without losing certian characters for large chunks of the season. 

Deep down I'm hoping for a Ned/Lyanna/Tower of Joy flashback just to see Sean Bean again... but that might give away too much book plot if they showed us who/what was there.  :-X

Have yet to see these at retail here in the US.

I'm really surprised there has not been more of an outcry about this wave. I mean, it NEVER hit here AT ALL. Anywhere.

Just an FYI that Hasbro has discontinued this wave (and 6" Wave 1 finally), meaning they are taking no new orders and whatever is in the distribution chain is it for this wave.

If you haven't seen Anakin/Clone at retail yet and really want the black/orange packaged versions, you may want to go ahead and grab them from HasbroToyShop or another online shop to be sure you get them.

Also still need to track down the Heavyarms/Sandrock conversion kit.  Waiting for a good deal on ebay for that since I'd need to pick up a second H-arms and Sandrock to convert so I can have both versions.   ::)

Done!  Around Labor Day, I found a really good deal on a second Gundam HeavyArms and Gundam Sandrock that was too good to pass up.  That meant I definitely had to track down the Season One conversion H-Arms/Sandrock kit.  Was patient and found a BIN auction below my target price so I pulled the trigger.

Kit arrived today, meaning I am 100% caught up, including all the Japan-exclusive releases for Gundam Wing.  Now I can go to work completing the Gundam Wing - Endless Waltz stuff....  and of course, be careful not to stray into any of the other Gundam series - Zeta, G-Fighter, etc. ;)

Anybody got a sense for how Walgreen's distribution network works and how quickly they restock? 

Earlier this Fall, the Walgreens toy buyer sent out some tweets that revealed all of their initial stock had been shipped to the stores, but there are another 40k coming to stores in November for re-stocking (see below).

This past weekend, the Walgreens toy buyer tweeted that solid cases of eight 6" ProtoFetts will hit over 5,000 stores starting in November.

At NYCC, it was announced by Disney that Funko had a license for Disney's Tomorrowland.  There was even an ultra limited exclusive sneak preview figure that went up for sale when Disney released the trailer.

Funko had a lot of product at the show, but not much for company reps who knew about new stuff.  I heard a lot of rumors at the show though - Classic Star Trek, X-Files, Rocky Horror, the Lost Boys, Terminator 2; as well as wave 2s for Aliens, Firefly, and BTTF.  We'll see if any of it pans out though.
