Well, it seems pretty ominous to me that they abruptly ripped all the Dark Crystal stuff off of their webstore a couple of days ago. They are not just out of stock either, I had the pages bookmarked and they are throwing out 404 errors now.   ???

I wish I had bought them at the time now but their shipping charges are ridiculous and I was trying to find a cheaper alternative.

Bummer!

I managed to get a few of them but still need Ursol and Kira... and the regular Jen if she's different than the Landstrider one.

Then there's the lingering question of Garthim.  I registered at Funkofunatic to try and ask, but I'm waiting for the account to be approved.

Great update Rob, thanks! Major whew.

Now I just need to find out where I can buy the rest of the dang figures...

Probably already common knowledge, but my local TRU recently moved these figures from the toy area to video games.  All the various movie-related lines are in this new section, that I'd never have even walked by if I wasn't specifically looking for it.  Might be worth checking out.  I saw some GOT figures there, but didn't look closely at the rest of the FUNKO stuff.

Not to me.  You've been a wealth of knowledge the past couple days, J.  I just figured they didn't sell well so they quit carrying it.

I try to be useful once or twice a year.  Guess I met my quota now.   ;)

One of the Targets downtown here seems to have done the same thing with the more collectible figures.

ROB IS THIS TRUE?!?!

"He also updated that it will NOT have the alternate Kira (winged) or Fizzgig (mouth closed), it will just be the Garthim. "

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I finally broke down and ordered Aughra off eBay for $9.99 shipped. Couldn't find any of the rest at that price so have been trying to be patient.

This morning I found the other four basic figs (they had no listing for Aughra so I lucked out getting that one separately) at Barnes and Noble's website and they were all on sale for $5.96 each!

I grabbed all 4 and some Hot Wheels car to qualify for Free Shipping. The whole order came to $27.16. That's incredible for a bunch of figures I really wanted and am unlikely to ever see in a store. Less than $7 a pop!

Happy. Now to start saving up for the NYCC set...

Crap, I should have posted about the B&N thing... I saw it the other day.  I ordered the Dark Crystal figures I was missing, and 8 of the Game of Thrones figures for $7.50 each... free shipping, solid deal.

Also I'm disappointed about the Garthim set, but no wings is better than no Garthim.

Got my Dark Crystal figures today...all 3 carded figures' bubbles had come clean off and they were just bouncing around loose in the package.  :(

Not surprised really, I had heard this was a big issue with these figures, but disappointed nonetheless.

At least Ursol's box was in good shape.

Super7 is having a 20% off sale at their Webstore today (cyber20 promo code) so I bit on the new T-1000 hole in head liquid metal variant. After the discount and with shipping it only came to $12, so not bad at all.

How didn't I know about this until last night?!

Oh man, I just heard about these too! Pretty sure I will be going all in on this line, although I expect it will be short. I loved their ReAnimator figure from last year. It's one of my favorites.

I guess the ET ReAction stuff is available now too, on another note.
